You... You can't be, uh, serious. Please tell me you're joking. You might officially be the stupidest poster here if you believe the front office hates Christians.

Re: LIVE THREAD SAINTS AND TEXANS PRESEASON

Chill with the insults, thats why I left PSR.

I have not seen our team draft many outwardly Christians. Byrd is religous but we did not draft him, his talent was why we signed him. We didn't want Tebow if I recall. There are others. Just saying how many players on our team can you say is a God fearing Christian. Because as far as drafting is concerned, we never have those kinds of rookies.

Though the board also was pushing for Grayson over Petty and I believe thats what led to the drafting of Grayson. SR did the same thing on their board. The QB is the most important position for maturity, you can win with a immature WR or RB, you can't with a immature QB. A religous person is more likely to be mature and study hard.

Edit your post because I edited mine.

If you were a more important poster here I would report you but obviously like TB you have been more critical than positive.

No, I'm not gonna chill with the insults. You really are the stupidest person on this board. Do you know how many openly Christian players we have on this team and have had in recent years?

I haven't seen anybody act like Petty.

I know Brees is a Christian, but I haven't seen him talk about it much. Who else is? Name them.

Do you have any objective proof to that last statement? I'm not knocking Christians. I am one myself, but I would love to see empirical proof to that statement? There's not.

Frankly, it's asinine to say it. How about if I said, I prefer pagans on the defensive line because they are more likely to play fierce? Or if I said non Christians make better football players because a Christian would rather be at church than play on Sunday? It's baseless and ridiculous.

Why not say you would rather the team draft Christians because you prefer football teams with players who believe like you do?

Oh and calling me stupidest person on here. My insights have been very strong on here. I called OBD being a top WR before last year's draft based on his highlight reels, I was one of the first ones to begin the trade Graham movement.

When it comes to the qb position, yes I prefer someone who will be mentally ready and mature to start as that is one half of what it takes to be a great qb. You do not want anyone other than that to lead your team for the next 10-15 years.
