Who is God Picking?

Football is a religion. Maybe that's why they play on a Sunday? On this particular Sunday, the Christmas of sport, the Superbowl will be played. Both teams are looking for a little help 'from above' in order to be crowned kings of the gridiron.

But who is the 'Big Guy' roting for? Well, through careful deduction I have figured out that God must have a place in Arizona. Think about it. Phoenix is in the desert. Isn't there something in the Bible about where the Jews were forced to go? Yeah something like 40 years. Roughly as long as the Cardinals waited to get into the playoffs. Then there is the team name, Cardinals. There is an obvious reference to the 12 men of the Catholic church who serve under the Pope.

What about the Ten Commandments? It says 'Thou Shall Not Steal'...Ok, not a direct translation, but the negative connotation around the word steal (at least in rhymes with Steel) gives me a bad vibe about what the 'Man Upstairs' thinks about Pittsburgh.

So far me, I've seen the signs (no, there wasn't 7 of them) but they all point towards a Lombardi Trophy for Arizona.
