These kids life's are at risk when they come in hard on an rb, or lower their head, or fall wrong.
Yet some of you will complain about prayer, ans sit behind the bench and tell a kid he sucks.
I am not at all religious but dam some of you miss the point. You can be non-religious and still show the respect to those that are in the same way you would like to have their respect of your beliefs.
With that said, Coach Jones gets it (had to) when it comes to developing these kids into men and that will show on the field with age, maturity and experience.
I don't think it's the team prayer as much as it is the fact that you can see it's not just part of a pregame ritual and that CBJ is sincere in the action. That matters to some people... Me being one of those.
