It’s that time of year, and on this week’s Funny or Die Exclusive ‘Good God with God!’ God welcomes his special guest Satan, to talk about NFL football and players. Although the Creator and his scary red creation no longer see eye-to-eye, the two equitably share their very different ideas of what constitutes ‘fun’ within the game. Let’s just say Satan is no fan of safety gear.
You’ll recognize the names of players the two compare. I’m not a football fan (don’t hurt me) but I do recognize Tom Brady, whom Satan has big plans for in eternity. Hint: there is no hand basket, and the ride down on a red hot poker is good reason for Brady to stop deflating his balls and start deflating his ego.
If you have been wondering why God answers the prayer of someone who has lost their keys, while ignoring the pleas of another with a life or death request -I gather that he really isn’t everywhere at once. No fan of hockey, God says; “It’s kinda funny when a hockey player thanks God for winning the Stanley Cup. I didn’t even know the stuff was going on.”
I believe that must be why they assign saints for various occupations and situations. Your call doesn’t always go directly through the switchboard to the Big Guy. Memo to self: compile a new directory of heavenly helpers for the modern day..Or maybe SIRI does that too?!
