As Big As Jesus, At Least

From Saturday’s Daily News:

On the day before the resurrection of Our Lord, it’s good to know the Daily News sports section referred to him as just another boldface name, alongside a TV station president, a Catholic diocese spokesman, a minor-league baseball team GM and noted Scientologist Tom Cruise.

    He’s not everybody’s savior.

    Right. It’d be just as funny if the bolded the names of Moses or Muhammad or whoeever. It was just more fun to write it the way I did.

    Coming from the area where WNEP is the main news station, I must say that I hate that station with a passion. Especially considering their head weatherman yelled at me when I was a kid. True story.

    I’m not certain how baseball is any less solemn than “Extreme Makeover” or “Inside Edition.”

    You know, I wondered that too, but I guess it’s because it’s not live — except for the news, I suppose — so fewer people would have to work? I don’t know. It seems very strange to me.

    If I remember my scripture, I believe that Jesus gave us “Inside Edition” during the Last Supper. Yes, bread, wine and all of the crappy tabloid TV you can watch.

    This is the most inane decision ever. Baseball is anti-Christ, bad TV is okay to show. Bizarre.

    I am so glad I live in the Philadelphia area…I swear I would have to shoot myself if I lived in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre area or anywhere else in Pennsylvania for that matter.
