Ok. NOW I believe.
I probably speak for a lot of people who casually make fun of Tebow here. i don't hate the guy. He's just annoying. He's been annoying since he became a household name at Florida. And the reason he was annoying then was not his fault, it was the Tiger Beat media coverage of him. This is why he is polarizing. A lot of people don't want to have any athlete shoved down their throat. And when you couple in the evangelical christian aspect, that can obviously make someone even more polarizing.
Personally, I have no problem with religious people. Tebow being an evangelical/missionary who chops off polynesian foreskins/etc is just low hanging fruit. His release, his passing stats (until last week), similarly low hanging fruit. It's like someone bringing up Herman Cain, and the first thing you say is a joke about him being an adulterer.
But after this shit tonight, this was like water into wine. I am not kidding. i know there have been a million Christian athletes throughout the years, but no one has had Jesus on speeddial like tebow. Sorry, I can't recall Jon Kitna ever coming back in any game that ever mattered, ever. My memory is a little sketchy though. Kurt Warner? Won the first super bowl, lost the next two. He probably chalked it up to God humbling him, or God was giving him a learning experience, something like that. When does Tebow get to be humbled? In the NFL anyway? This shit is ridiculous. Period.
I'm looking into Denver futures, no joke, although I can totally see the Broncs getting shut down in the AFC title game or something, and Tebow saying how grateful he is and he's going to build on the experience or whatever. But what the hell how can you not expect this team to win every game right now? Don't believe the BS - it's not their defense, their kicker, IT'S TEBOW. He elevates everyone around him. When Dungy was on the dp show and said he would absolutely draft Tim Tebow not only in the first round but also EARLY in the first round - because he's a WINNER - I don't think he was just talking up a fellow Christian. Dungy knows people. He knows football players.
Also - anyone see the shot of Elway in the box when Tebow was making that end of the 4th q drive? Elway looked fucking PISSED. What a fucked up situation. How can Tebow go to fucking jacksonville? He's gotta go to a bigger market if he moves. Teams will be clamoring for him if he's on the market IMO. Fuck his release time, his completion percentage... he's a winner, he puts asses in seats, and smart owners know this.
