The theme is we no longer forgive!
John Gruden was the head football coach of the Raiders. A team that in the 70's and 80's had success as a bunch of hard nosed misfits but damn good players.

Matthew 6 says if you don't forgive others, God won't forgive you.
I have talked of celebrities. But what of others in your life? People a jerks. I get that and I am fed up with them! But....
