after a frenzied week of all jim tressel/all the time coverage, i still haven't heard a single person lay it on the line and say exactly what the hell what went wrong. what the hell went wrong is, none of us was obedient to God.
let's just think about this for a minute.......
if everyone involved, and that includes the fans (in fact, especially the fans), did what God told us to do - in 10 simple (not easy, i give you that) steps - none of this would have happened. none of it.
what went wrong in the jim tressel case is the precise same thing that goes wrong in every situation that goes wrong - we think our way of handling things is better than God's way.
(wouldn't you think - after how the hell many wars and how the hell many failed marriages and how the hell many financial collapses and how the hell many government scandals and how the hell many traffic violations and how the hell many drunken drivers and how the hell many cheaters and how the hell many babies abandoned in a trash can and how the hell many family fights over the dead uncle's estate and how the hell many slammed doors and how the hell many slammed phones (back in the day when we had phones - real phones - that you could really slam down and get your point across) and how the hell many "finders keepers/losers weepers" philosophies we have out there and how the hell many dogs are rotting away in animal shelters and how the hell many kids are drowning in beer in college - not to mention debt - and how the hell many abortions and how the hell many legal "loopholes" everyone can find and how the hell many price gouges and how the hell many politicians who don't change a damn thing and how the hell many people with secular relativism as their guiding force........
wouldn't you think - after all that......
that somebody would get the whole point of the jim tressel story?)
