Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco played like a boss at Sunday’s Super Bowl game, and the God of the Hebrews might have had something to do with it.
According to Algemeiner, Flacco received a blessing from his Jewish friend, who recited “Birkat Kohanim,” the blessing of Jewish priests, on the phone to him the day before the big game, to which Flacco responded “Amen.”
The phone conversation is recorded below. So, does this show that God is involved in sports after all?
