I think he has a point!

I always wondered why athletes always thank God after they win - why do they get in a huddle before the game and pray. The other day I saw Edgar Prado bless himself after he won the race..hell I saw Tiger point to heaven after he snaked in a long putt.

Jimmy Johnson even blessed himself after he won the Pepsi 500..I saw Manny Ramirez blast one and then kiss his medal and point to heaven. Kanye West won some Rap Award and thanked God.

Sometimes I even catch myself saying a prayer or two or asking for guidance from my Mom & Dad that have passed.

WTF is the matter with these people - hell WTF is the matter me.
