Today is Rosh Hashanah. I will be in Temple in New York.
I am under no illusions that I fall way short on so many levels. I also know that even the tiniest sliver of decency is better than zero.
Anyway, this column is pre-written.
I wrote these words a few days ago. I decided to write them again because the dilemma between religion and sports will never go away. I will make my decision at the 11th hour.

Next week is Yom Kippur, where I apologize and try to do better. I hope I do not have to add to the list before then.
A peaceful Rosh Hashanah to the Jews of the world.
I am hoping Brett Favre has a great game tonight, and the Vikings beat the Saints.
(Saints favored by 5.5. They win but fail to cover.)
Of course, good Jewish boys will be in Temple and not watching the game.
