A Useless Prayer for a Friend.

I hope the Broncos win the Super Bowl. There will be times during the game when every fibre of my being will be hoping they get the bounce or a break that helps Peyton capture ring number two. I have always been a fan of number 18 but Beer Me Partner Tony has been a Bronco fan his whole life. It is for that reason I will be cheering for the Broncos.

Corey’s Bro-code Rule 18

If a Bro has a team in a big game, you must throw your support behind that team unless they are playing your previously established team.

Exception: If that team is Duke University, the Montreal Canadians, or any other team that has fallen out of my favor.

I have never believed that God or whatever you pray to has a vested interest in sports. I would hope they are way too busy with important events to actually invest any time in a game or as Bobby Knight said:

I also like Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers. They seem like a good group of guys who have had a positive influence on the game. They give away a ball to a child after every touchdown and who can dislike a guy who wears these pants:

If I didn’t have a horse in the race, no pun intended, I would be cheering for Carolina as I did in 2004 when they lost to the Patriots. That was also the year of Janet Jackson’s Wardrobe Malfunction. A bigger deal made about a second of nipple flash you will never find.

So hours before Super Bowl 50, I ask for a good game. May the players and fans finish their celebrations uninjured and arrive home safely. I pray that the scary tradition of domestic violence after the game to not happen. I hope for those who wager can afford to do so and at the end of the day, if God has completed everything on his list, maybe he could help Peyton play like he did in days past and get The Broncos another title. I know my buddy Tony would be more than thankful.... Maybe a little too thankful.
