Takes more balls to thank God and follow your beliefs then go the route of it being un-cool. ... Kid works his ass off and people are going to rag on who he thanks on the podium. I for one would rather err on the side of thanking GOD then talking smack about a greater being and risking eternity. Just my 2¢
That being said... Great ride Mike, well deserved!
I liked his ride tonight......was good to see him him come back in on Stewart and try to give him some after JS passed him.
I know its stupid but it makes me laugh.

I'm not a believer in god. But if a god does exist, I don't feel that he would be a fan of a single rider.
If god is in heaven rooting for a particular rider, than he's probably not worth the water he walks on.
I was expecting a holeshot to a 10th place finish but he proved me damn wrong.
This series is looking better for 800 after each round.
His confidence should be through the roof come Glen Helen.
He thanked the big guy above, just like other riders do like Shorty, etc. He also thanked his mom, dad, and his lovely little lady Danielle. But no matter how much you criticize his beliefs, he was still faster than 17 riders out there tonight.
Nice ride Mike!
Besides, does God REALLY have time to sit around "keeping us safe out there"? Seems like he would have enough to do with keeping the planets in line and everything else. And if he does have time, then why doesn't he "keep us safe out there" all the time? Why he is so selective with his help?
It just doesn't make sense to me. Is this a test of my faith that he sent me? If so, I think I flunked.

My comments were directed at what is often said on the podium by certain riders. It's so common that I can quote it directly right here: "I just want to thank the Good Lord Jesus Christ for keeping me safe out there". We hear it all the time but we KNOW he doesn't "keep us safe out there" all the time so why thank him for it?
Why doesn't anyone bring up God or Jesus when they crash, get hurt, or DNF a race? Seems only right that if He's gonna get "all the glory" when they win or finish well that He may as well get "all the shame and regret" when they don't.
Just once, ONCE, I'd like to hear a guy get interviewed in the ambulance and say "the Lord works in mysterious ways". Just once!
Let us bow our heads. Please Lord, please grant me this wish, Amen.
