God's little mongrel mutt

digitalcatholic:

These were the CNN Quick Poll results this morning. I immediately thought about how sports is often considered the new religion. If this is the “leave early” rate for modern secular worship, it paints an interesting picture of the other thing on Sunday that usually takes a back seat to football/baseball/occasional cricket.

This reminded me of a conversation I had with my cousin this morning. He asked if I were ready for tomorrow. My immediate thoughts were “tomorrow = Sunday = Mass. Why wouldn’t I be ready for Mass? … He must be talking about something else…” but my mind drew a blank, so I asked “ready for what?” and was promptly reprimanded for not remembering that tomorrow is *gasp* the SUPERBOWL *eye roll* My bad :P
