Think he ever BLAMES God? | TommyC80's Blog

First thing I should point out is that I'm not an Angels fan, nor am I a fan of Francisco Rodriguez, and I refuse to call him K-Rod (this is the only time you will see me call him that). Anyway, I had a thought earlier today about him and his celebrations on the mound after every save. Pointing up to the sky and thanking God. My thought however was this: when he blows a save (which he has done this year) did he point up to the sky and blame God? Which reminded me of a thought I've had for years. Everyone's seen the interviews in the winning teams locker room after they win the championship (what team and sport are not important because it happens in all of them). One of the winning players will undoubtedly thank God for giving them the strenghth to win the game. What I would love to see is someone in the losing locker room say that he blames God for not giving him and his team the strenghth to win the game. Unfortunately you'll never see that, unless I become a pro athelete that is, so like I said.... you'll never see that. And I dont know why. Why is it ok to thank God when good things happen to you, but not ok to blame him when you dont get what you want?? Isn't that kinda hypocritical?? Anyway, none of what I've said here really means anything. Just a thought I've had for some time now. Plus I'm bored at work and figured this would be a good way to kill some time before my next smoke break. But since my wireless keyboard's batteries are dying and I have to switch it off then back on again everytime I stop typing for more then 10 seconds, I'll end it here. Any and all thoughts you have on what I've said are welcome of course.

The reason you won't see that is because people believe that it takes a power beyond their own in order form them to accompllish to extraordinary, but they can do bad, all by themselves.
