Sports events are really proof of the powerlessness of God, as every player and every supporter prays for their team to win, yet only one does.
Fun fact, traditionally speaking "Vanity" refers to the belief that God cares about the little things in your life, and that those prayers are worthy of his time. Sports victories being a perfect example of the type of thing you should not be praying for. You should obtain victory through effort and determination on your own terms, asking God to intervene is A) a profound admission of your own incompetence, and 2: really fucking selfish.
Obviously the team that won had better people who were praying even harder.
