When it comes to football, God passes

He doesn't care, not about football anyway.

Although athletes have long called upon him by name (in vain and otherwise), God doesn't care who wins or loses sporting events.

Not baseball. Not basketball. Not golf, tennis, volleyball, hockey, soccer or badminton. 

Not football.

Starting with "I"

I've never liked the idea of starting a sentence with the word "I." It always seems so self-centered, so "look-at-me." The funny thing is, as the youngest in my family and the only boy, I spent a great deal of my childhood running around saying, "Look at me!" As a grown-up, I'm not quite as bad, although my need to be heard is routinely met through my job as a sportswriter and columnist for the Standard-Examiner newspaper which is based in Ogden, Utah.
Anyway, since I've already broken one of my writing rules, I suppose I'll just press forward with my plan to introduce myself and my own personal blog.
