The guys at Serious Sports Network sent us the following today:
PHOENIX, AZ—As is his custom after every game, win or lose, Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner did not visit clubs or hook up with groupies Sunday night after his team’s 32-25 victory over the Eagles Sunday night. Instead he returned to his hotel room to pray and reflect upon his career and how he can continue to serve God by playing football.
Although God “rarely” directly answers Kurt’s prayers, the two-time MVP revealed to SSNN early today that “somewhere between my third Hail Mary” the Creator of the Heavens took time out of His busy schedule running the multiverses to reveal to Kurt His intentions for the rest of the playoffs.
“God appeared before me,” recalled Warner. “And He spoke to me, ‘Kurt, though you have been a faithful and devoted servant all these years, and certainly nothing less than My divine influence could have ever gotten the Arizona fucking Cardinals’—(yes, the Lord did blaspheme Himself. It is His divine prerogative, I suppose)—‘Even into the playoffs, let alone to the Super Bowl, I must confess that I shall be rooting for the Steelers come February 1st.’”
“He went on to say that He wished me the best of luck, and assured me that He wouldn’t attempt to influence the outcome of the game in any manner,” Warner finished.

Hey Matt Loede,
I lost all respect for you, you MF’ing piece of dogshit. The majority of Steeler Nation is represented by hard working, decent people that love God and fear God. You’re a disgrace to what the Steelers stand for by your filthy, disgraceful, childish talk about God’s character and using His name in vain in such a vulgar way. It’s great to trash talk and have fun but your piece in this blog in no way falls into this category. No the Lord didn’t blaspheme Himself you blasphemed Him. His divine prerogative extends to control of your every breath and heartbeat, and your health, family, wife, children and all other affairs and circumstances you will encounter in your life, which by the way, could end tomorrow. In the great world of football fun and entertain, especially the unique bond of Steeler Nation with everything it comprises, there are always extremists who are like maggots in a healthy apple. You don’t represent Steeler Nation, Matt, your a sick maggot. I’d be careful about being arrogant with and against the One who has the prerogative.
Don’t even try to say “I was having a little fun” …It’s not funny Matt.

Hey Ron, I guess you missed the part at the top where he said this was forwarded to him from the guys at SSN?

Easy, easy fellows. I can understand this being a sensative topic but lets not lose our heads. This is a Steeler site and we should be talking about the upcoming Super Bowl. I dont know if anyone has seen this but Sports Illustrated writer(s) have picked the Cards 24-20 over our Steelers!! We need to start talking about the game more to ease Steeler fans concerns. Lets leave God out of this.

Steeler Ron, this site is called Steelers Gab. I fail to see any reference anywhere that this site is actually Jesus Freak Gab, or the Holy Virgin Mother Gab.
I’m grateful I live in a country that respects my right to profess that in my humble opinion, there’s no such thing as God, no more than the Flying Spaghetti Monster. I have a right to believe it, and I have a right to say what I believe.
Chances are you live in a similar country, so you need to just suck it up and accept the fact that everyone is granted a right to believe what they want to.
However threatening people that their lives may end tomorrow is NOT a granted right in most countries. You need to check your fanatic religious beliefs at the door when you are reading a website about football.
