    It’s the Big Game

    For all you sportsball lovers out there, today is the day; Superbowl Sunday. This year’s contest sees the reigning champs the Kansas City Chiefs take on NFC champion Philadelphia Eagles at the Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana. Kickoff is scheduled for 1830.

    The Chiefs are a 1 1/2 point favorite and the over/under is set at 48 1/2 points.

    The real draw, at least for me, are the commercials. The return of ‘quality’ commercials is very welcome. Carl’s junior is leading the way. Watch:

    I received this in my email. I am giving no attribution as there was none in the email. At any rate, enjoy!

    THE NFL FOUND 23 ADDITIONAL POINTS FOR THE CHIEFS FROM MAIL-IN TOUCHDOWNS, AND, BASED ON OUTCRY FROM LIBERALS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY, HAS AWARDED THE SUPER BOWL WIN TO THE CHIEFS.

    We all went to bed last Sunday at midnight thinking Tom Brady had won the Super Bowl. Now we read on the Internet that the Kansas City Chiefs scored 23 points at 4 amto beat the Tampa Bay Bucs 32-31.

    A comment in the article stated:

    There is “no evidence” that the 23 points at 4:00 am constituted cheating and even if there were evidence, these points do NOT constitute “widespread” cheating. Further, an elected official in Kansas City “certified” the victory by the Chiefs and the NFL front office went along with that certification. When Brady objected, he was told that he has “no standing” to complain. 

    All the media sports writers as a mob did a gang up and pile on and accused Brady of lying, bad sportsmanship, and hurting the NFL and said he should be quiet and go away. 

    Some hot dogs were thrown at the referees, and Brady was accused, but later video was found showing that the hot dogs were thrown by some Chiefs fans. 

    YouTube and Twitter removed all content about Brady and the game. 

    The NFL accused Brady of cheating and further declared that Brady should never play football again.

    Much has been written about the behaviors of professional sports teams/players. They have decided it is their place to lecture their fans on social issues. Somehow they fail to understand they are under contract to play sports not lecture their fans..what few they have left.

    Today the Notre Dame football team decided they would make their statement. It was quite different.

    Take a look at what NFL coaching legend and outspoken Christian Tony Dungy tweeted out Saturday:
