     Is "Jesus Christ" a foul language?

vn00:32 AM

Refs warned our players about foul lang. When one of our players said sh*t. Then on the next series on 3rd in 10 one of our players missed a flag an another of our players said "Jesus Christ ". The down should be 4th and 5 but wait there is a flag. We were given a 15yrd penalty for saying Jesus Christ. Giving them a 1rst dwn.The ref said that Jesus Christ is foul lang. They scored on that drive.All I could say was J*S*S CHR*ST that was a bad call.

My son.. Thou Shalt not take the lords name in vain.. Its a commandment, you know better than that.. He should have penalized you 30 yards.

Reggie White06:56 AM

I agree with Run. And on the Sabath too.

giveth07:47 AM

The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away yards. At least you were not kicked out like that guy on pitbulls at Poplar Tree.

Pitbulls guy08:30 AM

What happened to the Pitbulls guy?

pitbulls08:56 AM

qb was tossed out for language 5 min into the game.

Vet09:10 AM

When you are kicked out, are you required to sit out the next game?

not09:14 AM

for language I don`t think unless you were directing it at the ref.

A little09:36 AM

over the top, don`t you think? I agree taking the Lord`s name in vain isn`t cool, but it shouldn`t be a 15 yarder. What if I yelled `Allah No!` when I missed a flag? Or how about `Yahweh be praised!` when my team got an INT? Would that be a 15 yarder as well?

Caveman10:27 AM

The bottom line, don`t bring religion into it. You pole smokers need to learn a little respect!

Jesus H. Christ10:38 AM

You all may use my name as you wish.
Hope this resolves everything.

Peace out!

Outcast_710:42 AM

I personally thought it was a little harsh. There were a lot of calls that were questionable on both sides. It did make the game a little more interesting. Good game nonetheless.

In some countries, JC will get you stoned to death.

Fr. Murphy10:53 AM

Your 15 yarder on the field my son is nothing compared to the penalty the Lord will assess to your thoughtless outburst. Please come and see me Saturdays from 4-6 at the church. 15 Hail Marys and forgiveness replay will be my call.

Jesus11:12 AM

ahh Jesus (pronounced hay-seuss)...I like him very much, but he no help hit curveball.

to clear the air i didnt get tossed for cussing i got tossed for arguring with my own player on our sidelines after i got a 15 yarder with the ref. Pretty petty if you ask me and the ref told a guy on our team if i knew he was the QB i wouldnt have tossed me. I never cussed at him tho to clear the air................

why12:56 PM

should cussing or "taking the lord`s name in vain" be a penalty when not directed at the refs or an opponent? it`s completely idiotic. last time i checked this is an adult flag football league.

Because1:01 PM

The IFFL is constantly fighting for fields and has to really push to get enough to host our games. If the county hears we are gettting lots of complaints about cursing, then it won`t keep giving us fields and the league will fail. It is not because we are all offended by it, but rather so that we can keep playing.

irony1:02 PM

adult league, than act like an adult and stop cursing. someone please explain to potty mouth why it`s a penalty. i`m in no mood to talk to a child.

Make your mama proud1:15 PM

and let us think that she raised you decently. We had a little league game right after us so there was plenty of kids and parents that wouldn`t want to hear that crap. Do the league a favor and lose in silence from now on.

Well1:34 PM

If you are good at flag football and don`t f*ck up all the time, you have no reason to curse or use the lord`s name in vain in an outburst of anger.

GOD2:21 PM

Deuteronomy 7:12-15
If you pay attention to these laws and are careful to follow them, then the LORD your God will keep his covenant of love with you, as he swore to your forefathers. He will love you and bless you and increase your numbers.

"VERBATIM"

you go God2:27 PM

but will you increase our touchdowns as well my Lord?

Hey GOD. It`s me Margaret.2:57 PM

I just started my period.

GOD2:58 PM

I will increase all of your numbers shall you obey my covenant son.

re: slash3:10 PM

If the QB that was playing most of the game isnt your started you should serious consider putting him that role. That dude has a strong arm...

yea ok 3:40 PM

strong arm he tried to run around the whole game he had 1 nice throw. He sucked

Didn`t he3:43 PM

throw two picks too? Better off with Slash.

THEY BOTH SUCK3:48 PM
