In point of fact I am not an atheist.
You though seem to be one that wants to inject religion into a basketball game or athletics as a whole when the whole point is competition and the lessons learned there.
Now it is sad that the girls team lost 100-0 and never scored any points. But then who's fault was it they were poorly prepared to play, the Coach or God?
Try to look at this with a little logic and leave your religious views at home.

What does God and Christ have to do with a basketball Game? Answer Nothing.....leave your religious views at home...

If you engage the religious question by responding with "answer nothing" then it is entirely correct for another person to engage you back.

As a point of theology, God might have more to do with even the tiniest events of life far more than we realize.

Sorry, can't be done. My religious views color everything I do. Yours do to. Unfortunately you fail to see that there is a religious lesson to be learned when you are faced with an opponent who is clearly undermatched.

As I stated earlier on this thread, when I was in Junior High School, I was soundly defeating an undermatched opponent and my coach caught me acting in a manner which was not consistent with good sportsmanship. In essence I had a cocky attitude which was apparent both to my opponent and to my coach. He immediately pulled me off the court and forfeited the match. He taught me a very important lesson that day. He was a great coach.
