Football season is here.

About this sermon

It’s a really important time of year. And I feel like it’s my job to both mention it and celebrate it. It’s Football Season. Let all the earth rejoice. It’s happening. Today, Texas is playing Louisiana-Monroe. But next week Texas is playing Alabama. And what you might not know is that a couple of my best friends are Alabama alum. Also: Tyler Merritt is also an Alabama fan. Make it stop. Obviously, they are all wrong. Anyway, it’s time to start breaking out the crockpots and snacks. Also: Send thoughts and prayers to me and Tyler on two different sides of this thing. Why did it have to be Alabama. My family and my best-friend group orient our fall schedules around football season. Who else was born for this? Also, please cackle as I struggle to find the word “superstitious.” The struggle is real, y’all. Anyone have to wear the same socks or colors or have some other ritual on game days?
