I like Drew but I wish he'd keep his religious crap to himself. Hate when people think they have to push their own version of religion on everyone else.

While I agree that pushing religion isn't cool, he's only pushing if it's mandatory, right?

I don't see any evidence that it's mandatory.

By pushing I mean public displays (such as tweeting), including/influencing teammates, etc. I am serious about my religion, as is most of my extended family. But I'd never make any public display or try to influence anyone else. This whole "my religion is the only religion, let me save you" thing is just plain wrong, IMHO.

I don't want to pass too much judgment here without knowing the nature of it for myself.

But even if it isn't mandatory, I can easily see how such a practice could be divisive in the locker room. What if your boss started getting some employees together at work for bible readings? Even if it isn't mandatory, I can easily see where that would get weird. Look how many people in this thread have already made sarcastic remarks. There are dozens of men on a football team roster plus coaches, assistants, and other staff. I find it hard to believe that there aren't at least a few guys rolling their eyes within the organization.
