S.I. Theology .....

Today's sermon at First Prez-Midland was inspired by this column from Rick Reilley of Sports Illustrated. "The best college tradition," Reilly wrote, "is not dotting the i at Ohio State. It's not stealing the goat from Navy. Or waving the wheat at Kansas."

And it's nowhere to be found in Texas, either, as some Lone Star accolytes of the gridiron gospel would have us believe. It is, Reilly writes, "Picking Up Butch" at
Middlebury College, in Vermont, where students say the question is not 'where Butch would be without them' ..... but 'where would they be without Butch?'
