While I get that it's not what you had in mind - you lay out the rules of a contest with no parameters and ask for a baseball mention in the bible. I pull out over 10...now I'm not complaining about not winning (I don't even collect 54 Topps)...but you need to lay out a bit more info than that...it's a bit ridiculous.

Any by the way - you said cite chapter and verse...the winner didn't say Genesis 1.1...come on sir, I imagine you can do better than this for a contest.

whah...LOL...i saw your answer too...all of them on the first google...I searched a little deeper, and liked that answer better (LOL)

yeah, i didn't do any real work - but it wasn't a prize I was interested in at all, it was more to get the OP to lay out what he actually wanted from the contest..but you're right, I sound like a poor sport, even though I promise I'm not. I'll shut up now for fear of sounding like one.

I thought in the biginning was more funny, but was curious if there was something a little more "realistic"...I wouldn't be surprised if there was....I have found God truly does have a sense of humor in some disections of the Bible i have seen...but I won't go there...

stown · July 23, 2008 2:22AM

<< Thats the oldie but still golden! lol >>

What could be considered an inappropriate (depending on preference) shower?

I'd rather be pushing floers, than in the pen sharin showers (golden or otherwise)

The son of God went to the mound
But knew not what to pitch
Hark! Lucifer, appearing to his side
Hit him. Hurt him. Destroy him.
The son of God could not.
Lucifer repeated
Hit him! Hurt him! Destroy him!
And thus God Himself descended from above
Low and outside, my son, low and outside
And so it was thrown

hofautos · July 23, 2008 3:58AM

I didn't get it, until i looked at the players name (lol)

TNTonPMS · July 23, 2008 10:49AM

I'm really surprised there is no mention in the Bible about when Jesus was in college .

Absolutely no mention of when Jesus was batting .666 in the Star of David game at Bethlehem University .

Also no mention when he passed for 6 touchdowns and ran for 3 in the in the Hail Mary Bowl .

I know the kid had to do something . . . .
But hardly any mention about when he was growing up .

It is an interesting book but it seems to be missing a lot .
