I am an Orthodox Christian, like Troy Polamalu (who is playing with the Steelers tomorrow for the Super Bowl), so it is really inspiring to read about him:

Here is an except that I like:
"He kissed the three-inch framed photos of the Virgin Mary and Jesus, then crossed himself, repeating the sequence several times before tucking them into his backpack."
This is what Troy did as he left the locker room after a game in Cleveland.

Wow, good story! I have to admit though, 'photos of the Virgin Mary and Jesus' did make me laugh. Now that would be a miracle. Aw, bless...
