Thanks, tngeoff. It really isn't anything special. lawvol just got under my skin. We could all do a lot more to help those in need. Mission trips are good, but so is helping those in our own communities.
But, hey, speaking of getting under skin, isn't that how all of this started?

Considering my dad just retired as EM of a charity organization formed by Churches in my community that provides housing to those living on the streets or money or food to those that can't pay their bills, or furniture to those that just had their house burn down, and I lent my services to that organization when possible, and I donate an hours worth of my pay every pay period to fund organizations such as these, I'd be careful what you say to me.

lawvol, you are absolutely correct. How dare these people go to another country and try to help them in the name of God?
Hey, let me know when a group of lawyers go to a 3rd world country and provide aide. I will be sure to attend.

Jesus preached that we should go and spread the word. They, Tebow's, were helping those that could not help themselves and they were preaching to them why they were doing it. They were on a mission to spread the gospel and also provide aide.
I have no use for a person who says that "Christians" coerce those that they are trying to help, but would most likely defend someone of another religion, who has no problem hijacking a plane and flying it into tall buildings, just to make a dollar. Bottom line, Christians allow themselves to be walked over because we don't stand up for ourselves. Gays have no problems being heard, blacks no, Muslims no. Why? Cause they MAKE themselves heard. Christians say we should turn the other cheek, Muslims say kill'em all.
Our country was founded on the belief in God and the Freedom he provides everyone. Yes, that freedom allows every man to choose what he believes or doesn't believe. Somehow, that freedom progressed into supressing one freedom to make room for another. Kind of a contradiction don't you think?

Most mission trips are based on the idea of, "we can help you physically and spiritually."
They were there because they believe in a person who believed in helping others. They wanted to convey that message and let them know that the physical attention was not their only purpose.
From the sound of the article, those seeking attention didn't mind to hear a brief sermon. They were fighting to get on the bus.

What's sad is that there is no way a pre-injury Lewis would have been denied on that play, no matter who he had to run over. Martin knew that. I mean, you want the ball in the best player's hands.
My play in that situation, hail mary formation, let the WRs take off and let Martin tuck it and run. What? It works on Playstation.

Brown said he got a "tip" on some kind of gesture Martin was making right before the snap.
Incidently, I was at an ex gf's family's house for this game and I had to go outside to yell when Grant intercepted the pass. (Huge South Carolina fans, had the nerve to fall asleep) Got back inside just in time for one of the all-time greatest checkoffs. The toss-sweep hasn't worked at UT since Chuck Webb. But, that guy could take a 20 yard pitch back for a positive gain.
My lasting impression of that game, Lewis looking up at Martin with the expression, "duh, didn't you know I'm folding it in this year so I don't get hurt again?"
Man, was that team loaded, though.

One thing I would like to see done away with is the Game Day Captains. Designate Captains at the beginning of fall camps and have them be your leaders. Too many chiefs, not enough Indians, or just too many Indians who don't know who the chief is. Workin, we all know, it starts with "Foolmore"

Defensive: Ayers has the potential to be a force, Berry and Morely have to play well, along with McCoy. Bolden and Williams are obvious.
All-SEC guys in my opinion, Berry, McCoy, Ayers
Offense: Crompton has to perform, Foster should have similar numbers to last year, just need Creer to become a homerun threat like Coker was. Any WR to become a homerun threat...ANY? People can diss Cut's O all they want, but you can't throw it long if nobody is there to catch it. Cut's O suited Taylor last year, but I think his numbers will drop off this year.
All-SEC guys, Foster, Parker, McNeil...and hopefully a WR.

lawvol, it's cool. I wasn't threatening you. It just got under my skin a little.
Many have died in the name of Christianity, as well. Just ask Rosie.
