But the NFL did a survey two years ago where they found out the people who play fantasy football actually are their season-ticket holders. So now we've turned a corner from, 'Is this gambling?' to the realization that, 'Hey, this a fun hobby played by a lot of our fans.' And for the most part, it's bragging rights -- not money -- that people are after in fantasy football.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36060</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ay, sir, and wherefore; for they say every why hath a wherefore. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51235]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ay, sir, and wherefore; for they say every why hath a wherefore.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whoever claims that economic competition represents 'survival of the fittest' in the sense of the law of the jungle, provides ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15800]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whoever claims that economic competition represents 'survival of the fittest' in the sense of the law of the jungle, provides the clearest possible evidence of his lack of knowledge of economics.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15800</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That inventory has increased, but they're also selling fast. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31233]]></link><description><![CDATA[That inventory has increased, but they're also selling fast.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31233</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wisdom ceases to be wisdom when it becomes too proud to weep, too grave to laugh, and too selfish to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61732]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wisdom ceases to be wisdom when it becomes too proud to weep, too grave to laugh, and too selfish to seek other than itself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61732</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He merits no thanks who does a kindness for his own ends ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27378]]></link><description><![CDATA[He merits no thanks who does a kindness for his own ends]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27378</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now the good gods forbid That our renowned Rome, whose gratitude  Towards her deserved children is enrolled   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18164]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now the good gods forbid That our renowned Rome, whose gratitude  Towards her deserved children is enrolled   In Jove's own book, like an unnatural dam    Should now eat up her own!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18164</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm from the city.

This introduces a third criterion of the Spirit, and on the wider stage of the moral life. It is loyalty to the moral ideal of Christ. "If we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us also walk" (Gal. 5:25). Where the Spirit dwells, it produces a new, a higher, a unique type of moral life. For Paul, the Christian life was not the normal and natural product of human activity, but a gracious divine gift, received by the descent of the Spirit into the human heart, for "the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, temperance" (Gal. 5:22-23). And there is yet one higher manifestation of the Spirit, the participation in the divine sonship of Jesus Christ. "And because ye are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, Abba, Father" (Gal. 4:6). Where sonship is, there the Spirit is. On the other hand, "as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God" (Rom. 8:l4). Where the Spirit leads, there sonship is... The possession of the Spirit and participation in Christ's sonship are but two aspects of the same experience. Here, the phenomenon, if it may be so called, bears its own credentials. Sonship is a self-evident work of the Spirit. But the evidence is available only for its owners in order that the Spirit of adoption may attest itself to others, it must issue in the life according to the Spirit, by walking in the spirit and bearing the fruit of the Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anger may be foolish and obsurd, and one may be irritated when in the wrong; but a man never feels ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20938]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anger may be foolish and obsurd, and one may be irritated when in the wrong; but a man never feels outraged unless in some respect he is at bottom right.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20938</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Cuthbert, Bishop of Lindisfarne, Missionary, 687 Continuing a Lenten series on prayer:  Although we ought always to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7493]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Cuthbert, Bishop of Lindisfarne, Missionary, 687 Continuing a Lenten series on prayer:  Although we ought always to raise our minds upwards towards God, and pray without ceasing, yet such is our weakness, which requires to be supported, such our torpor, which requires to be stimulated, that it is requisite for us to appoint special hours for this exercise, hours which are not to pass away without prayer, and during which the whole affections of our minds are to be completely occupied; namely, when we rise in the morning, before we commence our daily work, when we sit down to food, when by the blessing of God we have taken it, and when we retire to rest. This, however, must not be a superstitious observance of hours, by which, as it were, performing a task to God, we think we are discharged as to other hours. It should rather be considered a discipline by which our weakness is exercised and stimulated.
