Children, have you heard of the Tower Of Babel? The Tower Of Babel is in Arlington, Texas. I'll show you pictures of it in a few minutes.
This story is in a book that we call "The Bible", and this little story is from the Bible's book Of Genesis, Chapter 11.
1 Now the whole world had one language and a common speech.
2 As men moved eastward, they found a plain in Shinar and settled there.
3 They said to each other, "Come, let's make bricks and bake them thoroughly." They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar.
4. Then they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves....
and not be scattered over the face of the whole earth."
6 The LORD said, "If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.
7 Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other."
8 So the LORD scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city, (and they also stopped any plans for being in a hometown Super Bowl).
9 That is why it was called Babel —because there the LORD confused the language of the whole world. From there the LORD scattered them over the face of the whole earth.
And that, boys and girls, is what happens if you steal peoples' homes to build a sports arena. God gets angry, and your team loses.

I don't watch the NFL due to reasons such as; haven't respected the owner of the Cowboys since he fired Jimmy Johnson, didn't agree with them hiring Michael Vick back. Tony Romo is really cute and has a great smile -- that part I like. lol
Top Three Similarities between the Dallas Cowboys and the Federal Government.
1. Both promise more than they deliver.
2. When they do deliver something it is flawed and over-priced.
3. Both are run by individuals who think they are God.
