John Madden was in Chicago to announce a football game one weekend when he noticed a special telephone near the Bears' bench. He asked QB Grossman what it was used for and was told it was a hotline to God. John asked if he could use it. Grossman replied, "Sure, but it will cost you $200." John scratched his head, then thought, what the heck, I could use some help picking games.He pulled out his wallet and paid $200. John's picks were perfect that week.

The next week, John was in New England when he noticed that same kind of phone on the Patriots bench. He asked what the telephone was for and Tom Brady told him, "It's a hotline to God. If you want to use it, it will cost you $500." Recalling last week, John pulled out his wallet and made the call.John's picks were perfect again that week.

Last weekend, John was in Indianapolis for the Colts-Patriots AFC Championship game, when he noticed the same kind of telephone by the Colts bench. He asked Peyton Manning , "Is that the hotline to God?" Peyton said, "Yes, and if you want to use it, it will cost you 50 cents." John looked incredulously at Manning and said, "Wait a second, I just paid $200 in Chicago and $500 in New England to use the same phone to God! Why do the Colts only charge 50 cents?" Peyton looked at John and replied, "Because in Indianapolis , it's a local call."

GO COLTS!!
