High School Player Flagged For Touchdown Nod to God

He's like a coach who calls results into the paper/radio when they win but conveniently "forgets" when they lose.

In all of my years of doing what I do, I've had plenty of kids mention God and praise God when they win or do something good (TD, hit home run, make a FT, etc.). But when they lose or miss, NEVER has his name been mentioned.

And you mean to tell me you're NOT drawing attention to yourself when you do this?

Religion has no business in sports, especially at public high schools. Or else the Saints and Angels would win every year and the Duke Blue Devils and the DePaul Blue Demons and the Owensboro Red Devils would have bad years every year.
Just got through watching Ky high school football highlights. Saw every concievable form of celebration imaginable,with the exception of a hand to god,following scores Not one flag did I see. No place for God in public schools? Please give that some thought the next time you see or hear of a player with a severe head/neck injury or a player who has died from heat or cardiac problems.There may be no place for God but the door for illegal drugs appear to be wide open and a high toleration policy seems to be in place.
