Divided Loyalties

Jesus said you can't serve two masters - both God and money.

He didn't say anything about two sports teams, though.

I think I rooted for the Cardinals for the first time in my life last night (shh, don't tell Terry). Of course, I intentionally invited a house full of Cards fans over to get me in the spirit.

Now, let's not expect any miracles here. I'll still be a Royals fan first. And if they ever have a rematch of the '85 series, there's no question who I'm rooting for.

Same story in college football today. Although I grew up in Nebraska and have some Husker Red in my wardrobe, when they play the Cowboys there's no question where my loyalty lies.

I spent too much money on my college education and season tickets for the past 14 years to root for anyone else. Go Pokes!

I title this picture: "If Shane and Alice had kids..."
