LOL, but where are you heading with all this? You've been all over the map with your posts in this thread.
Whatsmore, you're starting to sound a bit like me... pointing out the obvious anti-semitic and anti-Catholic sentiment in this country!
Saying that Tebow would not have the same following if he was not a Christian.
Could have saved a few hundred lines, if I just wrote that.
yeah, cuz i'm really in a bunker with 10,000 cans of beans...

Football is a game of toughness, emotion, leadership, and momentum. You think that because he's a Christian, he's not supposed to be tough or get fired up. That's your wrong idea of what Christianity is all about.Let's keep things in perspective. Tebow is a very good overall player and has an excellent winner's attitude, but he's not going to make any lists of all-time great college players. Think of players like Barry Sanders, Bo Jackson, Herschel Walker, etc. There's a very big gap between that kind of rare player and Tim Tebow.
I can tell you why so many people who aren't Gator fans don't like him -- one of the reasons, at least. He comes across as disingenuous. He wears his religion on his sleeve (well, more accurately, on his eyeblack stickers) then makes a show out of calling attention to himself with his fist-pumping and screaming, and taunting opponents. It's very, very hard for me to like a player like that.

I've never seen Tebow do anything remotely close to what would be considered taunting until tonight. And I don't think making a Gator chomp when you've just locked up the national title is really a big deal. He definitely was the target of a lot of trash-talk all night and didn't say a word.
do we really live in a society that people can't stand tebow because he believes in god and acts like he has a purpose in life by doing missionary work? You look all over the place and he's hated just because of that. That just boggles my mind.

You mean he didn't say a word... until he did. Belittling another person is very much anti-ideal behavior from a loudly professed Christian. And that's exactly what taunting is: belittling an opponent.
So some of the dislike for Tebow is brought on by his own behavior, but much more is because of the fawning, masturbatory behavior of announcers and media. Anyone who was still on the fence as to how they feel about Tebow was probably pushed into the "Don't Like Him" camp last night because of the absolute stroke-fest from the Fox TV crew. Here's an excerpt from today's sports blog from the Dallas Morning News' Barry Horn:
I would now like to introduce a line that Thom Brennaman actually uttered sometime late in the first quarter. I wrote it down without the TIVO working so I hope it's 100 percent accurate. You will get the gist; ""In such a cynical, sarcastic society, often times looking for the negative on anybody or anything, if you're fortunate enough to spend five minutes or 20 minutes around Tim Tebow, your life is better for it."
And near the end of the game when Brennaman and sidekick Davis were again deep in Tebow praise, their beloved was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct for taunting, I believe. They said something like "Must be the first thing he's ever done wrong in his life."
And in case you didn't know this: When Sooners CB Dominique Franks earlier this week said Tebow would be no better than the No. 4 QB in the Big 12, he uttered "probably the most ridiculous statement ever said."
Ever?
Can you say, "hyperbole?"
No question, Tebow is a great player and wonderful human being. But he isn't Gandhi or Mandela or Graham, either.
Praise be to Jesus! Thank You Jesus! Tim Tebow is the second coming of Christ and he will save us all!
It's true, you wait and see and I will be in heaven, and not you dis-believers, and I will truly feel sorry for you but I tried to tell you the truth and make you a TRUE Believer...
Praise be to the Second Coming of Christ! Tim Tebow!
