Pope FAQ - Bad Things, Good Teams

Question: If God's so good, why do Catholic Schools lose at sporting events?

Answer: Catholic Schools only lose at sporting events as punishment for doing something wrong.

Why did Notre Dame have such a terrible football season? The Offensive Line played volley ball with a midget to get in shape during preseason (let me clarify, they were not playing against a midget, but rather using him as the ball).

Why hasn't Georgetown made a run in the NCAA tournament for years? John Thompson shot a hooker**.

Why did BC lose to West Virginia today? They lost because they committed one of the gravest sins of all, being located in Boston.






**For legal purposes, I'd like to point out that, to my knowledge, John Thompson did not actually shoot a hooker.

To be technical, Boston College is actually located in Chestnut Hill, MA, a tony suburb of Boston.

always remember, you can tell if someone is possessed by the devil by whether or not you can tell the difference between the words Bear, Beer and Bar when they speak
