If the Thunder are the only team in the league that pray for their players' safety...why are three of their starters injured?
Hey religious fanatics, God doesn't care if you pray. If it puts your mind at ease, gives you peace, helps you focus, go for it. Prayer can be an effective cognitive reminder that we humans are small and are not privy to God's will. It can help us consider and respect others and their views of the world. The only reason to do it at an NBA game is to make a statement. It is an attempt to marginalize everybody who doesn't think like the majority (big box christians in oklahoma). It is adolescent and embarrassing. And for those of you with the "love it or leave it" attitude...fuck you.

I like Tramel's use of the royal "we" ("We play hard here in the Bible Belt, but we pray hard, too.") to service his populist me-too-ism. I'd buy his provincial act if he were fifteen years older and grew a handlebar moustache.
