Greatest column ever

Ok, that's a little extreme, but I did really like the last line of the column. So, a little background. For those who know him, Gregg Doyel at CBSSportsline is a columnist with a lot of opinions, most of which are controversial. I have many friends who just plain hate him. But, today he wrote an article about who God would root for if the Tigers played the Yankees in the playoffs: Joe Torre's sister (?) is a nun, while Jim Leyland's brother is a priest. Both seem to be very "good" people, so what does God do? He ended the article this way:

Solution? I've got the solution. Detroit wins, of course. The day God sides with the Yankees is the day He needs to be fired.


Oh, for what it's worth, it sounds like closing will be on Wednesday.

hehehe... firing God is kind of a funny idea.

congrats on the long-delayed closing. I hope it happens as you plan.. why is it taking so long? Where are you staying in the meantime?

I thought so. :) And of all reasons to fire God, that's about as good as they come.

It's taking so long because Satan doesn't want me here. At least, that's what I'm choosing to believe. Basically, just about anything that could go wrong has gone wrong, from a recent change in street names (so half the documents say each address, and half need to be changed), to the bank feeling like the house is in a flood zone even though Vigo County doesn't.

In the meantime, I am staying in hotels. This week has been the Econolodge--free wireless internet and continental breakfast. :)
