To Calvinists, the game was never in doubt. The Christians win; Christ is victorious and all that's left is to spread the word of His triumph throughout the league.

The primary difference being that Premils believe the Christian team will be down 200000 points in the fourth quarter, with 10 seconds remaining on the clock. The team will prove itself incompetent and incapable of playing competitive football, despite being prime draft picks.

In the Premil view the quarterback (held back by the coach until the final seconds of the final game of the season) is the only player who actually knows how to gain yardage, let alone score a touchdown.

Actually, in the premill view, those old reruns of Vince Lombardi's Green Bay Packers on "NFL Highlights" are real time live feeds!

LOL. I love a good analogy.

The great Oddsmaker in the sky is taking wagers. Only a Cubs fan would bet against Him.

Am I mixing sports metaphors here?

We could make it a Raiders fan. 8~(

A funny conversation I had with God,

God, "You don't need to wear a watch"

Me, "But how will I know if I'm on time?"

God, "What, you got a HOT date some where?"

"In the Premil view the quarterback (held back by the coach until the final seconds of the final game of the season) is the only player who actually knows how to gain yardage, let alone score a touchdown."

Now that sure sounds a whole lot like the game plan in Matt. 24:21-30 with the coach and quaterback on the same page. That is a good analogy.
