During last year’s Super Bowl, we discovered the Twitter feed of Sister Miriam James, a nun from the Society of Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity in New Mexico.
Her play-by-play narrative of the Super Bowl (as told through the funny reaction shots of fellow nun and football fanatic Sister Mary) was our favorite part of the big game in 2016.
Well, Sister Miriam and Sister Mary were back for Super Bowl LI, and they’ve taken a short break from doing God’s work to ... well, do God’s less important but perhaps more entertaining work.
They did not disappoint.

Someone DNA test #Brady to see if he's human. I still think he's a cyborg posing as a human. 🤖#SuperBowl pic.twitter.com/YI7s4G8U80
