Praying before the big game

Quote of the Day: Fellowship of Christian Athletes Executive Dan Britton

"The landscape of sports is so crazy -- parents beating up coaches, NBA players going into the stands, baseball players getting traded halfway through the season. A wooden bat and a leather ball make a horrible god. We say, let's go to the Bible."

-- Dan Britton, Fellowship of Christian Athletes vice president, linking a change in athletic culture to a trend toward spirituality among athletes. He was quoted in the
Washington Post.
