HEAVEN--God, creator of the universe and master of all things living and dead, lost a showdown with Bill Belichick on Sunday, as the Philadelphia Eagles fell to the New England Patriots 24-21. God was working through receiver Terrell Owens, who asked him for a miracle to boost his team over the powerful Patriots. Though God was able to heal Owens’ ankle, his glorious power and omnipotence were no match for Belichick’s tricky 2-5-4 defense.
“That’s a great deity right there,” Belichick said after the game. “I mean, he created the heavens and earth, all the oceans, the pretty New England foliage, you can’t say enough about that guy. And how about the job he did on Terrell’s injury? The doctors said it would be impossible for him to play, but he was out there making an impact. They just showed a lot of character out there and I tip my cap to them. Still, it’s a great feeling to beat God. I guess this proves what my wife has been saying about me all these years: I’m the Anti-Christ.”
