Praying for a benign offseason
Lord, hear our prayer.
We ask that you keep our players from so much as visiting Cincinnati. It’s quickly becoming the Pla-doh Felon Factory™.
We, the Steeler Nation, pray that you keep our players on two feet and four wheels, and guide their faces away from the windshields of passing Chryslers.
And, Lord, we ask for a good draft. Please, pleaselet us find a tall, fast cornerback in the later rounds. One who can cover Chris Henry when he’s not suspended for breaking the law.
Send us a punt returner, oh Lord, who can hold on to the ball.
We ask, Heavenly Father, that you help our quarterback read linebackers in zone defenses — because he clearly can’t do it on his own.
And, finally, we ask that you be with our new coaching staff, as they try to find a way to get the sour taste of 2006 out of our mouths.
Amen.
