"Ireferensi Yevesi LeBhayibheli likaRay Lewis Dons ku-T-Shirt Nezicathulo Ngenkathi Eholela Amagwababa Ekunqobeni Kwe-Super Bowl"

I-Super Bowl XLVII (Februwari 3, 2013): Baltimore Ravens 34, San Francisco 49ers 31

Akukho ukushoda kweziteketiso ezihlakaniphile ezinikezwe i-Super Bowl XLVII. I-“Bro Bowl,” “Harbaugh Bowl,” “HarBowl,” kanye “Super Baugh” bekungezinye zezindlela ezithandwayo izintatheli nabalandeli behlonipha ngayo umhlangano wokuqala womdlalo phakathi kwabaqeqeshi abakhulu abaphikisayo ababeyizelamani—uJohn Harbaugh kaBaltimore noSan. Francisco uJim Harbaugh.

Kodwa ekugcineni, ukugxilwa kwengxoxo kubuyele enkundleni lapho abasubathi abayizihlabani abafana nowamukela amaRavens u-Anquan Boldin kanye ne-quarterback ye-49ers u-Colin Kaepernick babelungele ukugqama.

Ekuqaleni, kubukeka sengathi uBaltimore uzobaleka nomqhudelwano. AmaRavens ahole ngo-21-6 egunjini lokushintshela ngesikhathi sekhefu futhi anweba ngokushesha lokho okuholayo kwikota yesithathu ngenxa yokubuya kukaJacoby Jones okungamayadi ayi-108.

Khona-ke, ekushayeleni okulandelayo, izibani ngaphakathi kweSuperdome zacisha ngendlela engaqondakali okubangela ukuma kwemizuzu engama-34 yokudlala. Lapho umdlalo usuqale kabusha, i-San Francisco yantshontsha wonke umfutho futhi yahlela ukubuya okumangalisayo okuholele ekuqedeni okujabulisa kakhulu emlandweni we-Super Bowl.

Belandela ngemuva ngo-34-29 sekwephuzile kwikota yesine, abakwa-49ers babe namathuba amane okushaya i-touchdown esuka kumugqa wamayadi ayisikhombisa weRavens. Kodwa ukuzivikela kukaBaltimore, okuqiniswe ngumdlali wasemuva uRay Lewis, kubambe ngokuqinile futhi kwavikela isicoco sesibili se-franchise se-Super Bowl.

Ekupheleni komdlalo, u-Lewis wakhipha ijezi lakhe namaphedi ehlombe ukuze aveze ihembe elimnyama eline-“IHubo 91” eliphrintwe ngaphambili. Izicathulo zakhe zazibhekisela esahlukweni esifanayo esivame ukubizwa ngokuthi “Ihubo Lokuvikela.” Kwakuyingxenye yokugcina lapho uLewis aziwa ngokucaphuna esidlangalaleni:

“Ngizomanelisa ngezinsuku ezinde ngimbonise insindiso yami.” ( IHubo 91:16 )

Ku-Lewis, yonke le ndima yayibaluleke kakhulu. Iminyaka engu-13, ubengumuntu ophikisanayo ngaphakathi kwe-NFL. Kulandela isizini ka-2000, uLewis wacishe walahlekelwa yikho konke emcimbini weSuper Bowl e-Atlanta lapho kuqubuka impi kwashona izinsizwa ezimbili. Yena nabangani bakhe ababili bathweswe amacala okubulala nelokushaya kanzima, kodwa amacala ahoxiswa ngesikhathi evuma ukulivuma icala elincane aphinde afakaze amanye amadoda.

Ukusuka lapho, uLewis waqala inqubo ende, yokufuna umphefumulo eyamphoqa ukuthi enze izinguquko ezinkulu empilweni yakhe. Wathola ukuvuselelwa ngokomoya futhi wazibophezela ekusizeni abanye bagweme ukwenza amaphutha afanayo nawenza.

"Ungalinge ukwenze ngendlela engenze ngayo, ngoba wonke umuntu ngeke aphumelele," kusho uLewis etshela iNew York Times. “Kufanele uzimisele ukuhamba esivunguvungwini. Yilokho engikutshela abantu ngaso sonke isikhathi. Uma kukhona into ethile empilweni yakho owaziyo ukuthi idinga ukushintshwa, qiniseka ukuthi uyayishintsha ngaphambi kokuthi uNkulunkulu ayiguqule. Ngoba uma uNkulunkulu ezokushintsha, ngeke ukuthande.”

IHubo 91 lalibalulekile nakuLewis ngenxa yokuxhumana ayekuzwa nomlobi walo wendabuko. Walandisa ngokwehluleka ukuziphatha kweNkosi uDavide nokuqaphela ukuthi kwakudingeka ishiye izono zayo futhi ikhonze uNkulunkulu.

"Kimina, ngokukhuphuka nokwehla, ama-roller coasters weminyaka engu-17, kufanele uthole indawo ephephile," kusho uLewis. “Ufanele uthole leyondawo ethulise kakhulu ekhanda lakho, futhi noma nini uma ngiyifunda, noma nini lapho ngihlangana nayo, iBhayibheli lami, umBhalo wokuqala phakathi lapho amaHubo 91.”
