That's roughly a fifty million people watched -- Tivo pull off another miracles to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers last weekend.
Millions will also watch him take on the New England Patriots tomorrow.
Take a look at this new poll.
43%.
Of people surveyed think god helps -- on the gridiron.
Joining the company is not all of them Fox News contribute a father.
Okay now let will get to the poll -- -- second.
A lot of people don't like to Tivo doing -- Tivo public plan to you okay.
On his trip on his knees and craft people who own people don't like that what do you say to those people who do not like Tim tuba wanted us.
That's.
Totally their right not to like it I think those who were vocal about not liking it.
-- -- Are bitter -- bitter about something about you know I don't go I don't go get upset because air cruise does his little salsa dance after sworn it touched down.
I'm I don't get upset about my not like it.
But people -- out there in the public getting upset.
And -- -- for training publicly.
There is bitterness there and I I wouldn't dare judge -- the deep bitterness has caused by 43%.
Think that gonna directly helps absentee vote during a game.
-- -- What's your response I've got a quiz for you backs and and and and I -- -- I've got a quick heads to heads Tim -- ever said that god made his football goes straight.
Now has -- ever in his in his teeple ever said.
Thank god has made him win a football game you know he has not pays -- -- ever said that god once the Broncos to beat.
Any other team now not OK so most of the jokes that are made.
Not just host who were kept quiet very sought to girls got I don't -- -- -- About full most of the most of the criticism of Tivo is is suggesting that he actually boom has said that that he's out there are saying that god is making my football school straight personally don't -- illustrate.
Let's be honest but secondly what is he said he thank god for life he's from god that he's given them the position that he has he's thank god for the fact.
He is doing well the NT -- thank god for the blessings of the talents that god has given him then he can then put to good use.
But you know just -- -- fascinating on so taken with this story and I will be watching Saturday night the Broncos patriots game.
Hello my heart is with ten to bow my head -- with Tom Brady.
But the Fed said that for years he had been painting his favorite biblical verse which is John 316 on his way we're not gonna ask Stuart what that need to know you want to show essentially gone so long god so loved one of these -- -- -- -- -- right.
Month and it goes on -- -- sent Jesus then you look he's -- right.
And promoting this biblical phrase for many years and then in this this final game against the Steelers last week he throws for 316.
Yards.
Announces that this average completed pass with 31 point six yards.
And as the television rating for the final quarter of the game was 31 point six now father.
I always -- in this coincidence.
Believe it or not I would say yes because I didn't quite honestly.
I think it's wonderful and I am so happy that we have a guy who is known in the news not for turn guns into.
Into clubs and not for beating dogs but rather for.
First of all.
Just being enthusiastic.
And having fun out there there's a child like simplicity there that we want.
Secondly that he's -- and thirdly that all of these things coincidences I would call them are coming together.
How wonderful real fast what do you make of someone like me.
I personally would not indulge in public -- I would not do a Tivo -- -- -- -- Credit.
That cost you know I think it's a fine -- -- -- -- fall yes yes it -- it's.
And that can do it yeah I got -- you know but -- Stuart.
I think everyone expresses their religion different my guess what you a lot of people would like to freedom -- the freedom of religion should be limited to.
Praying inside the walls of the church.
That is not freedom of religion that's freedom of worship.
And well emotionally I think what we're really showing is courage courage of his convictions and that I think it's even grew more important than the public displays of -- -- so different than that Inco can approaches -- -- -- he's everywhere but.
And great debt.
It's very different it is very different and you like diversity the episcopal tradition somewhat different it was -- is is somewhat frightful diversity is beautiful I guess it is.
Father thank you very much for joining as a -- of their budget.
