Got into a conversation about this last night. Heard a guy on the radio who was saying that he plays in a fantasy football league with some of the members of his church. And I naturally thought "Well, whoever has the 1st pick, better pick Jesus, or he's going to hell." Then, I started thinking about what position Jesus would play in sports. Not just football, but in all sports.
Here's what I've come up with so far
Football- Free Safety, and RB (Jesus would definitely play both sides of the ball). Given His time spent on the cross, I feel like Jesus could really lay the wood to receivers over the middle and on cross-ing routes. And as a RB He would simply be able to use his offensive coordinator, Moses, to part the sea of defenders to take it to the house every carry.
Baseball- I think Jesus would be a starting pitcher, but would also bat 3rd in the lineup. If He weren't able to start at pitcher every game (I'm not sure why He wouldn't be able to, He's Jesus and I don't think Jesus would need to rest his arm and would be able to pitch much more than just every 5th day. But just for the sake of argument) I definitely think Jesus would be a center fielder. I always picture Jesus having extremely good range to the gaps, and a hell of an arm.
Basketball- I think Jesus would be a scoring point guard. Definitely can shoot the 3, but also, with his giving and unselfish nature (He died for our sins for Christ's sake) I think He would really be able to share the ball well and make his teammates better players. And for sure he could handle the ball well, he would have the best cross-over in the game.
Hockey/Soccer- Definitely a goalie. As I think I saw a while ago in a BS Scott avatar, Jesus saves. Simple as that. Also, at times I imagine, He would play whatever position gets the most assists in either of these sports, because He's had a lot of time working on his cross game.
Anyone else have some ideas where Jesus might fit in on the field/court? Maybe some positions he might play in other sports that I didn't mention here?
Discuss.
