The Super Bowl….The Day After

“What does God need with a starship?” ….Did God answer the question from the failed sequel Star Trek V:  The Final Frontier?  And if so, which successful filmmaker would He have likely used?

NICHOLAS MEYER (1982-1986)  vs  GEORGE LUCAS (1977-1983)

Would God have used George Lucas’ success with his original Star Wars trilogy that took place in a galaxy far, far away…or would God have used Nicholas Meyer’s success with the Star Trek trilogy that ended with a story that took place closer to home?

NICHOLAS MEYER’S SUCCESS FROM 1982 THRU 1986, which includes…

  • The Day After  (1983)…Kansas City
  • Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home  (1986)…San Francisco

The Super Bowl since 2020…

  • 2020….Kansas City vs San Francisco
  • 2021….Tampa Bay vs Kansas City
  • 2023….Kansas City vs Philadelphia
  • 2024….Kansas City vs San Francisco
  • 2025….Philadelphia vs Kansas City
  • 2026….at the home of the San Francisco 49ers

“Is God dead?” –a question asked in 1966

A few coincidences of the late 1960’s/early 1970’s involving sports and television

  • The first seven years of the Super Bowl
  • Hollywood’s future king working in television
  • Pete Maravich lighting up the record books for men’s college basketball
  • John Wooden’s UCLA men’s basketball team winning 7 consecutive NCAA tournament championships

 

The World Of Sports And Television

With the first Super Bowl in January of 1967, it’s no lie that the earliest years of The Super Bowl were in the late 1960’s/early 1970’s.  Or to be more specific, it can truly be said that the first seven years of The Super Bowl were in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. 

And looking beyond that time frame, of the top 28 “All-Time Most Watched Television Programs” according to the 2024 World Almanac, 26 of those programs were Super Bowl games.  And so there’s significance to include the earliest years of an annual sporting event that would dominate both the world of sports and television.

GOD vs SPORTS

“The key to my ability was repetition.  I practiced and practiced and practiced again.  I gave the sport my total commitment.  I tried everything I could in every way I could to perfect my skills.  It was like an obsession.  It paid off for me as a player.  I’m not so sure in life.  If I had given that same devotion then to my faith, which is what I do now, I’d have been a better person in the long run.” –Pete Maravich

 

TOM BRADY IN 2005:  “Why do I have three Superbowl rings and still think there’s something greater out there for me? …there’s got to be more than this.”

  • QUESTION THEN ASKED TO TOM BRADY:  What’s the answer?
  • ​TOM BRADY’S ANSWER AFTER WINNING THREE SUPERBOWLS:  “I wish I knew.  I wish I knew.”
