John Madden was in Green Bay to announce a football game one weekend
when he noticed a special telephone near the Packers' bench. He asked QB
Favre what it was used for and was told it was a hotline to God.
John asked if he could use it. Favre replied, 'Sure, but it will cost
you $200.
John scratched his head, then thought, what the heck, I could use some
help picking games. He pulled out his wallet and paid $200. John's picks
were perfect that week.
The next week, John was in Indianapolis when he noticed that same kind
of phone on the Colts bench. He asked what the telephone was for and
Manning told him, 'It's a hotline to God if you want to use it, it will
cost you $500.' Recalling the previous week, John pulled out his wallet
and made the call. John's picks were perfect again that week.
Last weekend, John was in Dallas, when he noticed the same kind of
telephone by the Dallas' bench. He asked Tony Romo, 'Is that the hotline
to God?' Tony said, 'Yes, and if you want to use it, it will cost you 50
cents.' John looked incredulously at Romo and said, 'Wait a second, I
just paid $200 in Green Bay and $500 in Indianapolis to use the same
phone to God! Why do the Cowboys only charge 50 cent?
Tony replied, 'Because in Dallas, it's a local call...
Welcome to God's Country.'
