Kurt Warner says it's God's Plan...that he and the Cards won tonight....

Just now during the Press Conference.

I must be a loser. My God doesn't care about football.

1. Did God also give him his ugly, batshit crazy wife?

Or does he just have bad taste?

2. I guess God wants them to experience a SERIOUS ass-kicking.

Either the Giants or the Eagles should do a pretty good job with that.

God knows how to bet on football.

4. My god cares about football.

He's a sucky god lately, though. Can't get the Cowboys into the playoffs.

Kurt Warner's okay. Yeah, he's verbal on the god thing, but he's a decent bloke.

8. My god used to,

until the Grey Cup final. Montreal got greased by Calgary, and it's well known that my god doesn't like the Stampeders.

15. Then why did he let Calgary win?

Flutie played for B.C, Calgary and Toronto, never Montreal. If you're right that there's anger about not resigning Flutie, the Alouettes should have crushed the Stamps.

6. That's like saying Bush proved himself an idiot with a remark he made yesterday.

Warner throws God, Jesus and whatever other bible-thumping crap he can into EVERY interview. Perhaps you missed every single interview he gave in 1999 and the "THANK YOU JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESUUUUUUUUUUUUUS!" scream in front of the Super Bowl crowd when he and the Rams squeaked by the Titans?

You know, when he couldn't keep his job with the Giants, that was just Jesus showing his love by testing him and making him a stronger person. By the way, those were his words, I'm just paraphrasing for your benefit.

9. I never actually cared to listen to what he had to say in past interviews.

I just happened to catch this one tonight and thought to myself "what a moron."

14. Trust me, you merely heard the same dung he's been spewing forth for a decade.

This is why every time i see him next to a journalist, i race for the mute button. I'd honestly rather listen to Bush than Warner, because at least there's some chance of comic relief amid the rolling of the eyes.

25. I remember Kathy Griffin winning an Emmy a couple of years ago

The second season, which premiered on June 6, 2006, brought Griffin the 2007 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Reality Program, non-competition, on September 8, 2007. She received it during the Creative Arts Emmy, which was hosted by Carlos Mencia and aired on E! on September 15. Griffin stirred up controversy with her acceptance speech, saying,

"Now, a lot of people come up here and thank Jesus for this award. I want you to know that no one had less to do with this award than Jesus. He didn't help me a bit. If it was up to him, Cesar Milan would be up here with that damn dog. So all I can say is suck it, Jesus, this award is my god now!"

Kathy Griffin meant this remark not as a slight on Jesus but rather as a satire of celebrities who thank Jesus profusely and nonsensically for their awards, especially artists who themselves are controversial.

Her remarks were quickly condemned by the Catholic League which urged the academy to "denounce Griffin's obscene and blasphemous comment." The Academy said that her "offensive remarks will not be part of the E! telecast on Saturday night". Griffin later responded, "Am I the only Catholic left with a sense of humor?"

The editing was condemned in two consecutive episodes 1 2 of Freethought Radio, the latter containing the deleted material. Annie Laurie Gaylor in particular objected to the comment being described as "hate speech." Fox News commentator Bill O'Reilly called Griffin a "pinhead" (a label he frequently uses) for her remark, which Griffin considered a "badge of honor."

26. Here's how...

Edited on Sun Jan-11-09 01:39 AM by nothingtoofear

Beat the game. That is, get all four gold trophies in all three cc levels (50, 100, and 150cc). This opens up an "extra" difficulty setting beneath 150cc. Essentially it's an inverse track for all the races in each of the four cups. It's technically at 150cc as well just that you race the tracks from finish to start instead of from start to finish. What I was alluding to is that Toad's Turnpike is the hardest (damn near impossible) track in that "extra" mode because the cars are coming at you and not going with you.

Enjoy!

29. That's awesome

Thanks very much! I can't wait to give it a shot! I'm sure Toad's Turnpike must be impossible with the cars coming at you like that.

22. I have tickets to the NFC Championship game

in Giants stadium next week. Of course if the Giants don't win, they won't have the game there and I won't go.

Thus if the Giants lose tomorrow, it will be God's plan for me to cry like a baby for 3 months.

I ain't about to jump off now!

Philly will choke, as usual.

31. Welcome aboard!

There's more than enough room for all of us.

I was born into it myself - my dad pretty much made up my mind for me before I was born.

32. Guess I'm a late bloomer

Eli, like his Dad played college ball at Ole Miss. I live in Alabama about 95 miles
east of Oxford, MS. We southern folk tend to stick together. Remember Bo Jackson?
Lives today in his hometown of McCalla, AL. A bit southeast of me.

33. Wow - no kidding?

Bo is absolutely one of my favorite athletes of all time. From what I can tell, he seems like a humble guy, too. That's great.

Ole Miss had a heck of a season this year.

Anyone?

New York -4.5
Pittsburgh -5.5

Or does God prefer the money line?

24. OMG do you mean the NFL has all-pro players that come from places other than the SEC?

Shit, say it isn't so!!

He can talk about God all he wants. He's harmless. If it keeps him in the straight and narrow and stops him from snorting himself to death with coke or whatever the glamour drug of choice is these days in pro sports so be it.
