‘White Privilege’: Libs Erupt as Tebow Gets Second NFL Chance While Kaepernick Remains Sidelined

[citygator]

Liberals don’t dislike Tebow. That’s some right wing super snowflake shit. People pointed out Tebows knee was treated different from Kapernick’s knee. Tebow is a solid guy and as a liberal I’m a fan. He can be wrong about abortion like many others but he does solid charity work and is genuinely a very nice guy. Wear your religion on your sleeve all you want. Doesn’t bother liberals as long as you don’t use the government to push your views. He ain’t in government.

Good person, subpar quarterback. He should've made the move to TE ages ago.

 

[AMart]

Probably trying to sell tickets. Tebow is from the Jacksonville area and Meyer was his head coach in college and is now the head coach of Jacksonville.

Just be patient.

In the coming decades, most football players will be African American and Hispanic.

While Caucasians remain the majority for a little longer, it just makes sense that most fans prefer to see Mr. T. play than Mr. K. (who many people say) is mediocre at best.

Tim Tebow is a GREAT man and follower of Jesus. We should all strive to be like Tim!

Yes, because why should the Almighty Sky Pixie do things like fail to cure starvation in Africa when he has important things to do like alter the outcome of football games.

And here it is from the other side. By all accounts Tebow seems to be a pretty nice guy. Why the snarky reply?

I don't believe I've ever seen him claim that God would do anything to alter a game. Have you ?

um...CK was given more then one "second chance" - he tried out for Seattle, for Baltimore...Baltimore was about to sign him, but after his GF went on a racist rant on social media calling the Baltimore owner a racist etc, they didn't move forward.

The NFL then, in an unprecedented move, held a private try out for him, where the entire NFL was invited to watch him. The morning of the try out, he bailed.

CK began to believe his own hype, and thought he was better then the NFL, he never really wanted to play....he was making more money with his divisive rhetoric

Both Kaepernick and Tebow had flashes of success as NFL QBs but were deemed not viable for the long-term by the very critical QB scouts throughout the NFL. Tebow went out and reinvented himself as a tight end. Kaepernick still feels entitled to be named a starting QB above the NFL minimum salary. The Baltimore Ravens were the one team in the NFL prepared to give Kaepernick another shot as a QB until Kaepernick’s girlfriend popped off about the Ravens owner being a slave master.

Tebow doesn't get a shot without Myers becoming the head coach of Jacksonville.

Tebow also had to reinvent himself and didn’t go to Meyer with a sense of entitlement to be a QB making more than the league minimum. I also have yet to hear Tebow’s wife popping off at the Jaguars owner being a slave master.

And? Meyers coached Tebow in college. He knows his skill set, work ethic and ability to motivate his teammates.

Tebow said many times he wasn't interested in being anything other than a QB.

Sure. Just noting that this likely doesn't happen without Myers.

And apparently he changed his mind.

What's not to like about this guy?

Yes. He said that and the market told him otherwise. The market for Tebow as an NFL QB disappeared. Again, unlike Kaepernick, Tebow didn’t go down the path of entitlement and victimhood because of the harsh reality that while his skills sets as an NFL QB had showed some promise and hope at one time, ultimately, those skills sets fell short as being viable over the long term.

?? Blacks have been the majority in the NFL for a long time. Hispanics from C. America are generally much smaller than whites and blacks. People with Spanish surnames that are not of "native" ancestry are a different animal.

Twitter erupted Monday with accusations of white privilege and racism as leftists went on the attack after Tim Tebow was reportedly set for another shot at playing in the NFL even as national anthem protester Colin Kaepernick still sits on the sidelines.



News broke on Monday that the Jacksonville Jaguars are expected to sign former Heisman Trophy winner and NFL and MBA layer Tim Tebow to a one-year contract:

The #Jaguars are planning to sign QB-turned-TE Tim Tebow to a 1-year deal, per me and @TomPelissero, a deal that could be official in the next week or so. Nothing done yet. But he’ll have a chance to make the team to reunite with his mentor and college head coach Urban Meyer.— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) May 10, 2021

But with news of the Jags deal, leftists unloaded on Twitter:

(Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com .

Hahahahahahahaha...I have no gripe against Tebow other than that he isn’t a good NFL quarterback, I admire his faith, and he is a good team player.

This has to leave a mark on that POS Kaepernick, to be sent the accurate message that Tim Tebow, even as compromised as he is talent-wise, is a good enough choice to get another chance, while Kaepernick is not.

Eat it, Kaepernick, and eat it hard.

How do these people expect to be taken seriously. I have always known that while Tebow may not be a great QB he IS afootball player. KAP tanked his own workout for God's sake. He's a fastball pitcher with no change up the leauge adapted to

 

[Biff_Poindexter]

More power to him. Hope he plays better as a TE than he did as a QB.

When did he play TE in the NFL or college?

I would like to go watch the highlights

Kaepernick has had a huge influence on society. He is doing just fine.

What does that have to do with playing football.
