[old joke]
Joe dies and goes to Heaven. An angel meets him and says they are going to see his Mom.
"How did you know I wanted to see my Mom?"
"This is Heaven, we know everything and everyone gets exactly what they want most."
Joe's Mom loved flowers, and he finds her in a beautiful garden that goes on for miles and miles. Next he visits Dad, who has a 100 story tall garage with every kind of car and a dozen different race tracks to drive them on. His favorite teacher has a vast library; his coach has a team of all the greatest players; everyone is wonderfully happy.
Then he remembers his Aunt Petunia. He asks if she's in Heaven.
The angel pulls out a monitor. Petunia is all alone in a giant city. She goes into building after building, laughing and clapping.
"Petunia always thought that she was the only person who deserved to go to Heaven, so we let her think she's the only one up here."
Just casually owning people in heaven.
I've told that joke for years, and you're the very first person to equate "has a team" with "owns slaves."
You might want to chat with someone about that.
I actually read the "owning" as video game lingo.
So I am imagining they are playing against a team that really enjoys losing.
