About a week ago on another thread this was batted about, but if you had to recruit a team of strictly religous icons for your football team, who would it be?

Examples: Jesus has excellent leadership skills plus intangibles, but hand injury led to fumble problems. Moses would be great for opening up holes on the line.

Major religions only, no mythology. And yes, I know that I am going to hell. That has nothing to do with this thread.

job would be my running back. nobody would want to tackle him for fear of leprosy. Lazarus would be my wr, because he could make the catch over the middle, get layed out, and pop right back up.

Would have to go with David at QB for sole capability / ability to throw the rock....

Joshua would be my fullback, he has the ability to knock walls down.

Solomon for coach, Samson on the line?

7/12/2006, 01:00 PM
Samson would be my middle linebacker. He is great between the tackles, and has a phenominal ability to tear down offenses.

Goliath as a wide receiver, 10 ft tall

Switzer-lander
7/12/2006, 01:05 PM
Vishnu at wide receiver. Four hands. Could hold for field goals and extra points, too.

Dude, the Buddha would have to be on the offensive line! He is huge man, can you imagine the lanes he could open up for Job and Joshua!:D

with a runner like job, we wouldn't even need a kicker. can you say two-point conversions?:D

I would have Methusala as a coach, someone who's been in the game for 1000 years must be a good coach.

the line would be too violent for Buddha.

Leprosy? Gives new meaning to the term hand-off. Please. Hold your applause.

Yeah, yeah. I know.


Hindu has a couple of prospects on my Hotlist:

Brahma- Would make an excellent QB. He has 4 heads so no one can read his eyes. He too has 4 arms which could be an asset on a bootleg rollout. You'd really have to look for the ball.

Ganesh- Excellent interior lineman. Part elephant. Very bright (noted for being clever) and can make assignment changes on the fly. Again, 4 arms. He was created to guard a stronghold, so he's got all the motor he needs.

He could hold for both at the same time, technically... not that it'd ever come up or anything.

Could we put L. Ron Hubbard in charge of recruiting?

Was thinking overnight about Atlas; anywhere on the OL. Is known for his strength. Can anchor anywhere on the line .....

Damned pagans. There are repeats and mythology all over this thread. I should have known better than to pose this question to this Godless lot.

Fine. Mythology, since you don't know your friggin' bible.

Since we're all going to Hell anyway, thought I would recount an old one from the '70's.

Seems like a football fan died and went to heaven. Upon meeting St. Peter at the Parly Gates, he was advised that Heaven had a football team and asked if he would like to take a look.
Peter took him to the stadium and let him watch as a game was in progress. The first thing he noticed was that no one wore numbers on their jerseys. Instead, they had letters.
The fan asked St. Peter what was up with the letters.
St Peter replies that they were abbreviations for positions.
So the guy with the FS on his jersey was the Free Safety.
The one with QB was the quarterback.
As the fan watched the game, he noticed an older gentelman on the sideline with BS on his jersey. He tried and tried to figure out what BS stood for.
Back Switch?
Bull Sh**? Surely not in heaven.
He just could not figure it out, so he finally asks St. Peter who the guy with BS on his jersey is.

St. Peter tells him " Oh him? That's God."
Asks the fan "Well, what does the BS stand for."
Says St. Peter "He thinks he is Barry Switzer".

He had good forsight and can really organize a team.

Suprised nobody has put Jesus at kicker. He's got that hippie look, and that bodes well for a kicker. Pretty clutch too. "Are you trying to tell me that Jesus Christ can't hit a curve ball?!?". He can kick too. Also, Cali at linebacker. The woman has a belt made of skulls. She's right up there with Lattimer from The Program (even though he was at tackle).

Again, Jesus has the foot injuries. Can't over look that.
