yeah
regarding
THAT UPCOMING 2020 US OPEN LADIES ( WOMEN's ) SINGLES FINAL LAWN-TENNIS MATCH BETWEEN VICTORIA AZARENKA AND NAOMI OSAKA
later today SAT.12.09.(SEP).2020
when two players that you really like are facing off against each other / one another which of the two do you support ?
yeah.
i mean,
in the absence of any extenuating? circumstances that may pre-dispose you to supporting one over the other may polarize you into favouring one over the other
who do you support ?
one way or another ?
in that conundrum, very frankly,
i suppose the thing really to do is to fall black on that old wisdom commonly pronounced among the educated Onitsha igbo / eeboe ... historically ...
and which goes something like this :
EVERY BODY PRAYS TO GOD.
AND SO,
WHEN TWO FOOTBALL TEAMS ARE ABOUT TO PLAY A MATCH AND YOU SEE ALL THE FOOTBALLERS IN THE 2 OPPOSING TEAMS KNEELING DOWN IN THE PITCH TO PRAY BEFORE THE MATCH STARTS
( .... this is a common sight - historically and till date - on many football fields across Nigeria whenever 2 teams are about to play a football match .... )
DOES IT MEAN THAT GOD IS GOING TO REJECT THE PRAYERS OF ONE TEAM ?
AND ANSWER THE PRAYERS OF THE OTHER TEAM ?
AFTER-ALL IT IS A COMPETITION
AND IN A COMPETITION EVENTUALLY ONE - NOT TWO - ONE OVER-ALL WINNER MUST EMERGE
SO IT'S REALLY A CASE OF
EVERY MAN / EVERY WOMAN FOR HIMSELF / HERSELF AND GOD FOR US ALL
i.e A CASE OF EVERY TEAM FOR ITSELF AND GOD FOR THEM ALL AND FOR US ALL
in effect, MAY THE BETTER COMPETITOR WIN, IN JESUS NAME AMEN
so i guess applying this to a match between the BEAUTIFUL NAOMI and the BEAUTIFUL VICTORIA
i guess it is
VICTORIA AZARENKA for HERSELF
NAOMI OSAKA FOR HERSELF
GOD FOR THEM BOTH
GOD FOR US ALL
and
MAY THE BETTER COMPETITOR WIN, IN JESUS NAME AMEN
