Our Manning, who art of Broncos,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,
thy plays be done,
in stadiums as they will be in heaven.
Give us this day our daily touchdowns,
And forgive us our superstitions,
As we forgive those who superstition against us,
And lead us not into defeat,
But deliver us to the Super Bowl.

For thine is the team,
And the power, and the glory,
For ever and ever.

Go Broncos.
To many Americans, football is a national pastime in which we celebrate a time in which two teams of gigantic men run down a massive field, a pigskin in hand, doing their best not to get tackled to the ground (unless the sport is Rugby, in which case, hopefully not getting your face beaten to a bloody pulp).  To me, it's a subject ripe for comedy, considering the largest amount of customers we get at the store is during a Sunday, and they're mostly Broncos fans.  So, religion/football parody poem ahoy!

Apologies go out to those who are offended by my latest piece of blargh.

I'm not an US-Football or a huge football (yep, we actually keep the ball on with feet, ya dig? :P) fan, but after reading the Super Bowl results this makes me laugh like nothing else in my life XD
