       Real life question about prayer and God's will.

       Two NFL football players are about to square off in the Super
       Bowl.  Both pray to God, asking Him for the strength to win
       the game.

       One team wins, of course.  The player on that team thanks God
       for answering his prayer in the affirmative.  The other is
       disappointed, thinking that God answered his prayer in the
       negative.

       Is this a fair conclusion, or did God find the request
       frivolous and allow the outcome to follow without His
       intervention?
