Let's take a short break from the serious stuff and talk sports. This Saturday Western New Mexico plays a football game at New Mexico State. WNM is a division II team, NMSU division I-A, two divisions better. El Paso (TX) Times reporter Darren Hunt interviewed Western New Mexico's coach Charley Wade, and posted this quote on an online college sports forum:
"I'm praying for the shortest game in the history of college football. We've just got to try and kill the clock the best we can. We'll show up, but you know, there's always the chance the bus will break down and we can't make it." Wade had the following response after a WNMU athletic deparment official pointed out to him that David beat Goliath in the bible: "I'm a religious man, and one thing I realize with David and Goliath is God had a reason for that. But I have never been convinced that God gives a flip about the outcome of a college football game. Besides, we've been trying to find slingshots, and we can't find the damn things. You ever tried to find a slingshot?"
