WACO, TX- Earlier today, head coach of Baylor University's basketball team, Scott Drew, resigned his team from the March Madness Tournament, because of distantly competing against Duke University. His purpose of disengaging himself and his team from the tournament was that he despised Duke's mascot, the Blue Devil.
"It's just too anti-biblical for my liking," said Scott, "We believe that Duke is giving Satan too much credit."
Shortly after his resignation, Scott tweeted the following:
I'm sorry fans of Baylor men's basketball, but in our school's Statement of Faith, we never immerse ourselves in anti-biblical concepts. Although we wouldn't probably have played Duke, the name of Baylor should never be printed on a bracket shared with the word 'Devils', let alone 'Devil'.
To the amusement of many Duke fans, head coach Mike Krzyzewski said in defense:
Well, seeing as "Blue Angels" was already taken, @scottdrew.........
This is an amazing reminder about how Christians should take their faith seriously.
