    Jedi, you are missing the whole point. Praising God, in the context of breaking a reasonable rule, does not make this guy immune to a penalty. There's no persecution here. And, the last time I checked the cheerleaders don't go running into the end zone nor onto the field everytime some yoyo makes a great play.

    You mean there's a Christian on the Raiders?

    When did they start allowing them?

    :D

    Seems that Jesus said something about quiet, private prayer versus loud demonstrations of prayer in public.

    Jesus warned against prayer for show.

    Does Jesus even hear an Oakland Raider's prayer?

    Perhaps his answer is "I'll bless you with a victory when you learn how to play".

    One can celebrate, but in so doing one should be prepared to pay the penalty for doing so.

    In a broader context, I think some Christians have forgotten that we are told to love and serve God; however, God has not promised that in so doing we would not be persecuted. I think some Christians think that they should not have to suffer persecution for serving God.
