Oh please....Tavaris Jackson anyone......TN and Oakland tried the diversity QB pick and got burned ........Never quite understand the hatred for a player who is deeply religious. I'm there to see football. Who cares if he cross himself, kneels, prays or whatever.T bow is religious, therefore I hate him...
Or probably not.
Tebow does it because these are moments when huge audiences are paying attention. I wouldn't care either if Tebow did his genuflections on the sideline after the play was over. He is attempting to steal the glory of the game and offer it to his make believe god at the moment most of that team's fans are celebrating. Basically it is dishonest. God wasn't out there making the big plays. People are cheering for the team, not god's grace. It would be no different if he pulled out a sign promoting a pizza franchise.
There is a reason why the NFL limits what can be put on a uniform or helmet. They honor someone's passing or support of cancer but it is very rare the display is altered. What it comes down to is it is not Tebow's call what the NFL glorifies. He would need to have official NFL recognition and agreement to "advertise" his cause in the venue they own outright and completely. That Pandora's Box will not be opened just for fanatic christiansi. It's always a case of the christians expecting preferential treatmeant and priviledge. They are much like the jews who demand special consideration in our nation's foreign affairs.
If Tim Tebow was black he would not even be getting calls. When a black guy is a QB he has to be GREAT!!
A white QB can be a backup for 15 years LOL
