NOTE: For those who don't get it, Jesus is not rooting for any particular team. When players say that they thank God or say they thank Jesus, they are thanking our Creator for giving them the strength to use the talent God gave them and to be the best they can be.

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- That's not a mirage rising out of the desert, folks. It's the Arizona Cardinals soaring to their first Super Bowl.
Yes, the Cardinals, founding members of the NFL, but historically among the most dysfunctional of franchises, finally have joined the big boys. Capitalizing on Larry Fitzgerald's three first-half touchdown receptions, then coolly marching downfield to Kurt Warner's 8-yard scoring pass to rookie Tim Hightower with 2:53 left, they beat the Philadelphia Eagles 32-25 Sunday for the NFC championship.

Warner is a class act and Fitzgerald was incredible. This may put Warner in the Hall of Fame.
Kurt Warner is STILL probably the most popular athlete here in St. Louis. All of St. Louis is going to be rooting for him in the Super Bowl.
He also ought to thank that Back Judge who missed the pass interference on Philly's 4th and 10.
Yep, always liked Warner. I live just across the river from St. Louis.
Now we get to watch a thug named Ray Lewis. Quite the opposite of Warner.
Was sorry he had to say that his thanks to Jesus would be unwelcome by some.
The man deserves his success and has the right to thank his Lord.
Probably the most exciting game of the playoffs, IMO.
I’m glad the media was unable to censor Kurt Warner’s Christian testimony this time. His is one of the most remarkable biographies in sports, from his record-breaking performances in St. Louis after playing for an obscure college and being passed over by the NFL, to his rebirth this season in Arizona. I’ll be rooting for the Cardinals.
“He also ought to thank that Back Judge who missed the pass interference on Philly’s 4th and 10”
That one was a tough call. I think the official was right in not calling interference because I don’t think the receiver would have caught the pass anyway.
Go Cardinals!!!!Your history for me Raiders.
How about a nice, big cheesesteak to go with that whine?
History has shown that during the playoffs pass interference has to be VERY flagrant in order to get called. That’s ok by me...
Warner already belongs in the Hall of Fame IMO, but I hope he and the Cards win the SB to cement his HOF status.
Warner had a QB rating of 145.7
Actually I personally think Jesus does care who wins, I think he even cares about insignificant things. On the other hand I think he for the most part lets those who work the hardest or have the most talent win. In other words we have freedom of will.
Again my personal belief but I think in the early days he performed more miracles and allowed his disciples to do the same in order for his good news to spread more easily. There might come a time when it is necessary again, but I don’t know.
I think he mentions somewhere that the people who were killed when the tower of Siloam fell, didn’t die because of sin but because they happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. As simple as that.
Fitzmas!
okay, i got to take it back, we do have a “professional” football team in AZ.
Oh man. I didn’t see the game but I taped it and now you ruined it for me. UGHH!!!!. LOL!
