Welcome to the Cathedral

Friends, do you love football?

Do you love it in your heart? Does is speak to you in your quiet moments? Does it come to you on silent cleats in the small hours and scream in your ear "WIN ON THREE! ONE TWO THREE!"

Amen.

Then join my church.

For this is not the Old Church of Football. No. The Old Covenant was broken by the West Coast Offense and those rules that allow offensive linemen to extend their arms whilst pass-blocking. The Old Church was The Junction Boys, led into the wilderness by The Bear and sacrificed for false gods. The Old Church celebrated communion with a salt tablet.

Here in the New Church, we experience a personal relationship with The Game via fantasy football, as defined by The Manly Football League.

We connect to the mystery of football through our pain and sacrifice as fans of The Chicago Bears, The One True Franchise.

We observe the passion of football through our 50-yard-line perspective on the SEC and the ACC.

And we explore the future of football through the Wando Warriors JV team, just because we've got a kid on the squad and high school football has always been cool to watch.

Here endeth the first lesson. Now go and punt no more.
