The perfect offense against the perfect defense

What happens when an unstoppable force hits an immovable object?

ChiCityCoug

1/18/18 7:42am

Exactly. ...so, the answer is 'No'

Borg

I think we have about a billion years of sports before we completely master them

Only one conference/Kingdom? I think there will be many kingdoms and conferences

Shore10

So is that pretty much just like being an Alabama fan now?

I once heard that soccer will be the only sport in hell

Yes, but only BYU sports.

Who would they play against? Or is it all reruns?

buffgato

Da Bears

You pit past teams against each other and find out who really is the best.

Spirit prison

No. You won't have time. ...well maybe in the lower kingdoms.

OldCosmo

People in the lower kingdoms need to be fellowshipped and converted. Isn't that

chilango

Is there an anti-bandwagon? Because yous a hater

Dissenter

I am definitely anti-bandwagon.

chilango

Fake news. Utah won't be playing in heaven...

ColoSpgs

I'm assuming sports will require matchups between Heaven and Hell at some point.

What did you think was meant by "courts on high"?

mannheimadler

Yes, because if it matters to you it matters to Him.

Boxing?

buffgato

So round robin it is. No conf divisions and conf championship games.

I have wondered about this from time to time. Sometimes I have concluded

All powerful = the ball goes wherever he wants

Yep, common weird thing I hear in church. Perfect doesn't mean he's

cujo22

1/18/18 10:17am

I had an disagreement in seminary whether or not Jesus is 'athletic'

Dissenter

1/18/18 10:18am

I think we understand a LOT less about pre and post mortal life than some think.

cujo22

1/18/18 10:26am

I heard it somewhere...

CoachSpeak

1/20/18 11:10am

Not sure about the athletes part (no bodies), but maybe the others

buffgato

1/20/18 12:02pm

I don’t know why not...

CoachSpeak

1/20/18 12:37pm

Great... I'm left wondering just what I spent my time doing!!??

Borg

Apparently you had a wide range of interests....

Didn’t God wrestle with Jacob?

CoachSpeak

1/20/18 11:13am

but if he can command the elements he can command a rubber ball to go

ColonelMustard

1/19/18 11:41pm

B-ball in the celestial league where both sides command elements. Could be good

Everyone would have a distinct advantage and it won't be allowed because of that

stevebyu8

I'm convinced that the singular reason we have and enjoy sports here on earth

It can' be perfect without sports. I see perfect with winning and losing.

I'm hoping there's duck hunting in heaven...

CoachSpeak

Perfect ref's and umpires. That will be heaven

Because we will have agency and physical bodies.
