@VanLathan NO 🏈 is the basically the only sport where you actually have two distinct and separate teams on each team. The outcome of the game isn’t a function of a single player. A QB is the most important player on that team but their impact is relatively low compared to other sports.

@thehill She clearly has no clue of how prayers work. James 2: 17/18. So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.
