Then there were four, one of them riding a pale horse, wearing a hoodie.

I Wanna Be Sedated
I have spent the last 48 hours being subjected to a one-two punch of the tenth anniversary of the Tuck Rule and recent Patriots failures in the playoffs. When there’s a break in that action, I’m asked to consider the possibility that Tim Tebow may, in fact, be the second coming of Jesus Christ. Through all of this I’ve come to the undeniable realization that I’ve really got to cut down on the coffee.

Do You Believe God Uses Football Games to Send Messages to People?
There are some people who believe their mere presence on this earth justifies the existence of God. This seems rather egocentric to me. My anecdotal evidence is not compelling. I’m not so sure it would take a supreme being to create some of the people I know; more likely a mischievous demi-god with a truly eccentric sense of humor. Anyway, I heard some chatter on WEEI, the local sports radio station. Apparently, there are people who believe that Jesus is fixing NFL games in order to place Tim Tebow center stage at the Super Bowl to testify because (apparently) Jesus needs the pub. Seriously? Jesus needs to leverage the Super Bowl’s ratings to maximize the marketing opportunity for his brand in Tim Tebow? Really? Whatever happened to the badass dude who would just smite something every now and then? Pillars of fire, floods, frogs, all the first born of Egypt – that guy didn’t need a football game to make his point.

Breakfast with Glenn and Steve - Three Years or Fifteen Minutes
After parking my car, I hustled through the early morning cold and into The Wooden Spoon. Glenn and Steve were already seated at a table in the back. I made my way through the queue of people waiting to be seated and sat down. The waitress came and took my coffee order and headed back to the kitchen.
