Quote:The St. Louis Rams, desperate for a quarterback like seemingly half the NFL is these days, called Brett Favre this week, according to ESPN. The franchise wanted to see if Favre would unretire for the umpteenth time and give it one last final shot, after all the other one last final shots.

Seriously. They called Brett Favre.

Farve WAS a great quarteback but at his age he'd be as good as Teebow.

Well, yeah. Duh. I was just at a loss to explain your picks.

Now that you've explained it, I'm at a loss to understand why you didn't pick the Jaguars. If ever there was a long shot, it's them.

If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

Apparently, they thought he'd be even better than Tebow. Otherwise, they would have called Tebow up.

Or maybe they just didn't want to have to deal with an ostentatiously pious Christian.

I'd condemn you for not picking the Redskins, but I didn't pick them either.

Your condemnation would add but little to the pain of being a Vikings fan. But even I'm not so crazy as to think they have a prayer against Green Bay. . . or apparently anyone else this season.

They could probably beat the Jaguars or the Browns. Not in the road, though. Big Grin

Pssh...you do not know pain until you've been a Lions fan. We're having an amazing season at 4-3.

We once went 0-16 and 2-14 the year later.

There is no room in my soul for pity for fans of other losing teams.
