Forgot the postgame picture last night
I know it's not politically correct, but I personally love this post-game tradition at Liberty

Who cares about politically correct! That's part of the problem with our
world today! People are afraid to say what truly is on their minds! Nothing truly gets done in a politically correct world! Say what you mean, and mean what you say @VTChip Go Hokies! 😊👍đŸĨŽđŸ’Ŗâ¤đŸ‘Œ

Amusing softball story
Church league teams played behind the Massengill plant in Bristol TN. The teams prayed around home plate prior to the game. It was, figuratively, gloves off during the game. Rough! Then, they gathered and prayed around home plate.

Right, it should not be political nor should it be imposed in any way . . .
. . . on anyone. Players at Liberty have voluntarily opted in when they chose to become "Champions for Christ". It's great they have that choice.

Correct. This is fine when you play at Liberty and fine for the FCA . . .
. . . groups that CHOOSE to do this either before or after athletic contests. I would have problems with this kind of thing being led by coaches at a public institution. I've seen coaches and FCA reps create environments in which those choosing not to participate have been made very uncomfortable. ** Edited by MidloHokie at 4/16/2026, 10:17:58 AM

Right, at UVa there was a Jewish player on the team when my daughter played
and there is one now actually and I could see them feeling a bit uncomfortable.

Nah, players can decide to participate or not. It’s a good thing.

I've got no problem with that as long as coach tells the team . . .
. . . before hand that he's fine with anyone who chooses not to participate.
