Don King is a lover of big words. Peter vs. McCline is not just a fight but merely a question of Faith, Hope and Glory. Do the two boxers agree? Samuel Peter is known to be a devout Christian man who neither drinks nor smokes. So we could call him faith-based. Jameel McCline shows a collection of assorted family photos on his website . The first two pictures show wedding and Christmas scenes, his wife and two daugthers. So he is really a man of hope. Both of them are longing to be WBC heavyweight champion and want to enjoy the Glory of the title. Don King is right.

With USA Today's Top25 most influential people there are 4 men related to sports and spirituality. We are sorry there are only men, but it looks like women are not equally influential at all. They are just represented as media workers: Oprah Winfrey (3), J.K. Rowling (20) or ambitious wives: Bill & Hillary Clinton (21&22). Half of the sport-and-spirituality-guys are abusers and half of them are rightful bearers of their label: Osama bin Laden (6) is known and claims to be a Muslim but as an Islamist he is rather and abuser of religion. Lance Armstrong (8) was widely recognized as professional cyclist but then gained discredit through drug abuse which is not part of true sportsmanship. Pope John Paul II (9) is a true representative of proper religion. Michael Jordan (17) is a pope, too. His domion was named basketball. Summary: His Holiness and His Airness make the list a draw. read more

Jonah Keri lists The 18 best Jewish ballplayers of all time . Sandy Koufax ranks #1 as he decided to put his religious beliefs ahead of his pitching career and refused to play on Yom Kippur in 1965. By the way: the number "18" in Hebrew numerology, stands for the word "Chai," meaning "life", so this is not a top 10 list.
