Finally, a sports player blames god!
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Steve Johnson(notes) dropped an easy, game-winning touchdown pass against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.

After the game, Johnson placed the blame for the flub not on himself nor the pass nor the lights nor the defender nor the pressure of the situation. Nope; he blamed it on the big guy upstairs:

I PRAISE YOU 24/7!!!!!! AND THIS HOW YOU DO ME!!!!! YOU EXPECT ME TO LEARN FROM THIS??? HOW???!!! ILL NEVER FORGET THIS!! EVER!!! THX THO...

2. How egotistical
Like God cares about a touchdown. I happen to believe - I know many don't - but ya know, Stevie, he might have more important things on his mind, ya think?

5. That's not "praise". It's "rant"
So maybe praise ain't quite 24/7. 22/6 maybe? I guess it just ain't enough.

Some advice. Take your hand off the prayer beads and use both hands to catch the ball.

Another way of looking at it: Maybe GOD is a Steelers fan.

:hi:

7. God: "Well, that's the problem, son... I don't like to be praised. Especially 24/7."
"This was my way of telling you to back off."

"Last time I looked, your hands were working just fine. Don't blame me if you can't use the damn things."

"Oh and don't tweet about me... It only makes me want to zap your tweeter."

9. Anyone ever notice....
...that when certain players make a touchdown, they raise their head and hands to heaven, but when they blow an easy touchdown they don't shake their fists at heaven? Dumbasses don't even realize it's their own damn fault or good play that counts. Thanks.

12. Well why did god let him drop it?
:shrug: I'd be pissed too!
God often acts like a turdnugget and should be called out on his shenanigans!! ;)
I mean what is more important in this world than an athlete catching a football?
God is a dick!
