Gosh, was this weekend the greatest for a football fan. It started on Thurday night with a dead heat until half-time at the South Carolina game and some national spotlight for Charleston Southern (a Baptist School) at the University of Miami. (Obviously they lost.)
One of my favorite local H.S. teams, the Byrnes Rebels won in a tough game in Atlanta Friday night and our own school (Wren) pulled out a comeback win over rival Palmetto.
Saturday, my Buckeyes romped. But my favorite game was the ECU win over Virginia Tech (Sorry Pastor Phil). What an exciting way to win with a special teams punt block against the master of special teams, Coach Beamer. It hurt Saturday night to watch the Clemson Tigers get so dejected on national TV. North Greenville got to play Saturday night at Liberty. (Great exposure in an incredible environment.)
Sunday, there were games...and the NFL doesn't even start until next week. UK took it to Louisville. And then Monday, even the Rutgers game was exciting. And UCLA's new QB started so rough with 4 first half interceptions...only to win in overtime. And if that was not enough, my two sons had a 4 hour live fantasy draft on Monday morning and another one on the internet with some friends last night at 10 p.m. It seemed like ESPN's College Gameday was a perpetual program.
So what is my point? I'm not sure I have one. But after every commercial on the halftime shows and pregame shows and postgame shows promised (and never delivered) an update on Ohio State's Chris 'Beanie' Wells' foot injury...I just want to know if he is expected to play in 12 days at USC (Southern California)?
I wander if that is how people feel about Christians and our church? Is it an endless supply of 'stuff', but they still are left with the question they started with?
