Marriage and football. There really is a connection. Jon Strain, director of Search Minsitries of Boise, wrote the following "Marriage Playbook and Rules (For Football Fan(atic)s that was presented to a young couple at their wedding ceremony.
HUDDLE BEFORE EVERY PLAY
Discuss what you're going to do and your position/roles so that you're moving the ball down the field together. "If a team is to reach its potential, each player must be willing to subordinate his pesonal goals to the good of the team." Bud Wilkinson
Check to see if there's a play being sent in from the head coach or you won't have a prayer. Or, if you don't pray, you won't have a play ... worth running, that is. The man's play: 1 Peter 3:7. Woman's play: Ephesians 5:33
Be prepared to run different offensive plays during different seasons of your marriage.
PROTECT THE FOOTBALL
The football is your relationship.
