Jesus loves Osama, but can he love the NFL?

Fall Creek Baptist Church in Indianapolis have cancelled their plans to host a Super Bowl party on Sunday, to watch their Colts lose to the Bears, after the National Football League sent them a "cease and desist" letter.

You see, Fall Creek church, and thousands of other churches in the US, are infringing NFL trademarks and offering unauthorised public screenings of Super Bowl XLI without the poor impoverished League receiving a single cent in return.

The Miami Herald takes up the story, and reproduces a fax of the NFL's letter to the church.

The Fall Creek Church home page currently has a message from the pastor about the matter.
