[Newspoetry] Heavenly-Throne Quarterback

[John]

Hailing from St. Louis, I felt obligated to write the following poem, and
submit it, before I went to sleep tonight.  Before I had second thoughts.

 Let it be known, I rooted for the Rams.  I wanted them to win.  But as I
listened to the post-game show, I realized I was very pleased.  Not by who
won, not by what I was hearing, but by what I wasn't hearing.

Heavenly-Throne Quarterback

It seems Jesus 
has begun rooting 
for a different team --

A team that doesn't
mention His name 
once 
in the post-game interviews.

Inconceivable.  

Who do the Patriots
think they are, 
taking credit as a team
for their victory? 

Don't they know 
who wins 
has nothing 
whatsoever 
to do with skill or talent?

It's all in 
the capable hands  
of Jesus Christ, Amen.

He decided today 
to sacrifice the Rams...
that's all there is to it.

If the Rams wish to win next year
they need to find out why.
Perhaps an offering
is required.
Perhaps they shouldn't eat meat
during Lent.
Perhaps
worshipping Satan 
might bring them 
ultimate victory.

All options must be considered.
