Sister Jean Is Convinced That God Is A Bigger Fan Of College Basketball Than Pro Basketball3/31/2018
Oh brother, I suppose it was only a matter time before someone whose name is preceded by Sister decided to play the role of Mother Teresa and definitively refer to the hypothetical favoritism of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. If I have learned anything from televangelists, it's that the virtuous can only consistently open their mouthes for so long before they sound holier-than-thou, so I suppose Sister Jean deserves the benefit of the doubt for keeping her antiquated beliefs to herself for four whole rounds. Plus, it's tough to be too hard on this old bird for chirping on behalf of beyond the clouds, because the truth is that God probably does favor the NCAA over the NBA. After all, the values of Catholic church and the priorities of college athletics align pretty nicely. If you believe everything you read then God appears to have a particular fondness for forcing his following into abstaining. Sex and money might not be the exact same vice but they do typically go hand-in-hand as the respective fruits forbidden of those that want to go to heaven or compete in amateur hoops. Christians call it lent and student athletes call it a season, but - at the end of the day - young vulnerable boys are being taken advantage of and ain't nobody getting what they really want. Sure, the professionals that are lucky enough to be fairly compensated and receive a cut of the unlimited revenue they almost exclusively bring in play a much more aesthetically pleasing brand of basketball, but God values pro bono over proficiency. Well, that is until the collection plate gets passed around, and it would be rather hypocritical of him to get mad at the NCAA just because their "collection plate" just so happens to look like the swimming pool of Scrooge McDuck...
