No, not at all. Pathetic you would even try to go there. How about searching out a Tebow messageboard. Trying to talk football on this one.

I agree. Tim Tebow is a really classy guy. It's tough to hate him when he's so generous and kind. He's a real hard worker.

The point there isn't any reason to get personal. Keep it about football, if that is what you want to do. I don't need a Tebow messageboard anyhow!

Christopher Hitchens is somewhere having a great laugh at the lunacy.

In tebow case, the media hype him so much, it creates the opposite effect with fans of other teams. Even the players in the NFL is tired of him..because of the media..lol

The media doesn't force him to use disabled people like props for interviews or segments to run before a game, the media doesn't force him to pray on the sidelines - away from his team mates but with perfect sight lines to the nearest camera, the media doesn't force him to bring them along to any hospital visits or charity stuff, the media doesn't force him to insult people that have different beliefs than him, the media doesn't force him to use his religious beliefs like a line on a PR release or resume, etc.

All that is his choice. So if he gets some backlash for it it's somewhat a self inflicted wound.

I've said Tebow sucks from day one. That joke will be out of the league within 3 years.

Nantz and Simms were agenda driven from the outset tonight. That's what 5 weeks in a cult does to you. That fabulous Gronk TD catch - Tom called it one of the best he's ever seen, was just the start. Friggin' ball never moved. Watching the very obvious laces was the proof, and any idiot could see that. Well, apparently almost any idiot. They sounded beyond disappointed when the ref upheld the call on the field despite their combined certainty that it was clearly not a catch...

Simms was on the field with Tebow 2 hours before the game reportedly giving him pointers on passing in cold windy conditions.
