Salem Witches Attempt To ‘Neutralize’ Tim Tebow

Even the witches in Salem are getting in on “Tebowmania.” A group of them formed a circle Friday the 13th at high noon to “neutralize” Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow and, in their words, “heighten Tom Brady’s amazing energy and positive ‘mojo’” for Saturday’s Patriots-Broncos playoff game in Foxboro.

“Tebow is praying to the Gods, and we, the Witches of Salem will pray for the entire New England Patriots team and raise the energy in their honor to maximize an outstanding performance,” Salem Witch Lorelei said.

That’s all we need. Thanks gals; but please keep your nonsense to yourselves. It’s hard enough around here being a New England Freeper without you piling this crap on our shoulders.

None, as the believers on the Patriots team also well know.

Amen.

Uh oh. They may have just cursed New England.

As if many parts of New England are not pretty much cursed already – LOL.

But seriously, this is all getting very, very silly. I like Tim Tebow, I think he’s a great guy and a positive role model and I wish him well, but to think that God is directly guiding the outcomes of NFL games any more than witches casting spells can, it just plain silly. And I don’t think Tim Tebow would disagree.

I think the team that will win is going to be determined by the talent of the players and the coaches and to some extent the referees and not by God or gods or any supernatural spells.

I am rooting for Denver but I’m rooting even more for the Ravens on Sunday. :)

So, what do we have here?

An Elijah versus the priests of Baal moment?

Hmmm? Could get interesting.

Hopefully the Patriot players don’t start stabbing themselves with forks.

See I Kings 18:11-42 for context.

News item in Salem (MA) News some years back: Beverly Police saw a man in the cemetery with a bunch of candles, etc. Turns out the Super Bowl was that night and he was appealing to
the “fumble gods” in the hopes that New England would win.
“Police told the man to take his celebration elsewhere.”

(That night the team once known as the Patsies won its first
NFL Super Bowl title...)

Salem is at best, a very strange place.

I think the Wiccans in Denver are all hoping his passes “Merry Meet” with the intended receivers’ hands, Blessed Be! ;^)
