Do yourself a favor - Go to a convent or lock yourself in a closet if you don't want to hear the noise or you could simply just focus and discuss why BB brought him to New England.
I have given you the reasons why he is here. Deal with it.
I know why he's here. I have no problem with that decision. If you read all my posts you'd KNOW that. So you are just a common liar...which bring us back to the preceding Danny Aiken idiotic retort....not only do you not know what I'm saying, you don't know what YOU are talking about...but then that's pretty common out there in Weirdiana. Please, don't start with the "dinosaurs lived with Adam and Eve" and "Terry Bradshaw is the best NFL analyst in the world!!" stories.....have a Haldol induced tranquil night...
As for why you think he is here, you have made that painfully clear. According to you, it has nothing to do with football which ironically consists of 99% of your posts on these threads.
let me just say one more time...I do not doubt for one millisecond that BB has done this with a number of objectives in mind...and that in football terms it makes perfect sense for the Pats to utilize whatever Tim Tebow has to offer....I do not doubt BB's ability to max Tebow's strengths and minimize his weaknesses to the team's benefit.
What I do doubt...and very highly...is that this makes an iota of difference to what the "Tebow Circus" brings to town....just because the Pats are tight lipped and controlling of press ops does NOT mean the unbelievable tabloid press and that part of the sports media built around sensationalistic tabloid reporting is going to suddenly dissipate and blow away on the wind. Quite to the contrary, I believe it is going to INCITE Tebow nutbaggery to even higher levels than ever seen.
I believe he will be followed and quoted repeatedly outside of the confines of Foxboro and bombarded with all kinds of "Chosen One" questions from what he thinks of BB's adultery to Tom Brady's jet set lifestyle to Gronk's partying. EVERYONE wants to know what Holy Tim has to say and when it's the Darth Vader of the NFL and the Evil Regime of the Kraftian Empire, Blessed Timmuh's input will be THE most sought after sound byte of the year...all year...day in and day out.
This is not a Randy Moss story...this is not a Ryan Leaf story...this is not a redemption at Patriot Way...this is a sports figure who is known WORLD WIDE, with a fanatical world wide following called the Chosen One....millions tune in just to see what scripture he will have quoted under his eyes...not football fans...not Patriot fans...millions and millions of Tim Tebow followers. If the Pats win the Super Bowl, Tebow will be the center of attention...if the Patriots collapse this season, Tebow will be the center of the attention...as BB so famously quoted long ago...it is what it is...
Really? Really? I hope he gets cut and soon.
heh...this will be Mr. Mumbles at his best...I mean, you're 100% about DVR'ing THIS....I,for one, absolutely LOVE BB versus the media...but THIS???...this will be, not to be sarcastic, BIBLICAL...I just hope they go way over the top with their gaggling ,gushing, idiotic questions that are tangential to Tebow as a player for the NE Pats...he will be Darth BB at his finest...thanks for ther heads up, Sal...
Belichick threw up a gigantic middle finger to the media for an entire season during SpyGate... this is child's play... especially considering he brought this in himself. And yet, they are of the same importance to BB... as in zero.
I am personally not getting over-annoyed or over-excited until I see how this plays out over the course of the summer. The very name "Tebow" incites grandiose speculation about his value and future with this team, but it's pretty uncertain right now. Belichick signs and cuts players like a daily bowel movement - he could be here for a year, years, or tomorrow. Anyone saying he's bound for a full year or more doesn't understand how the Patriots operate. The minute he loses all value to the coaching staff and/or his media influence negatively affects the Pats, he's gone, like every other player they take on a flyer. And I'm confident in the organization's view of the situation, which makes me fine with this. That's all I've got to go on as a fan.
For the record, I am indifferent to the Tebow move until I see how they use him in practice and the contract he gets.
I don't "hope he gets cut," and even if I did I doubt that Belichick would bring him in here just to cut him soon, if at all this year. It isn't looking like it in my opinion.
That all said, I share your skepticism and am not feeling as excited as some here seem to be.
I guess we should just look at it as the low risk/high reward signing that it probably is. He may be able to offer something on special teams, as a short yardage back, as a blocker (we know he'll give his all), as a good locker room presence/high character guy, and as a scout team QB for the option stuff.
