God meets Brady

January
23

Somebody just sent me this quarterbacks joke to celebrate the Super Bowl hype:

 Peyton Manning, Tony Romo and Tom Brady go to heaven to visit God and watch the Celtics play a game. God decides who will sit next to him by asking the boys a question. God asks Peyton Manning first, “What do you believe?” Peyton thinks long And hard, looks God in the eye, and says, “I believe in hard work, and in staying true to family and friends. I believe in giving. I was lucky, but I always tried to do right by my fans.”

God can’t help but see the essential goodness of Manning, and offers him a seat to his left. Then God turns to Tony Romo and says, “What do you believe?” Tony says, “I believe passion, discipline, courage, and honor are the fundamentals of life. I too have been lucky, but win or lose I’ve always tried to be a true sportsman, both on and of f the field.”

God is greatly moved by Tony’s sincere eloquence, and he offers him a seat to his right.  Finally, God turns to Tom Brady and says, “And you, Tom, what do you believe?”

Tom replies, “I believe you’re in my seat.”
