DUmmies Discuss Tim Tebow
« on: April 29, 2013, 11:57:41 AM »
Although Tim Tebow seems to be a pretty awful NFL quarterback, he also seems to be a very decent and civilized young man.

That is more than enough to inspire hatred from the DUmmies:

15. Next edition. Breaking,
Tebow cut after it was learned that his application was misread as knuckleballer instead of knuckle dragger.

Another hapless adventure by the team that's getting a huge new palace to play in, funded in a major part by the taxpayers of Minnesota.
 
Pray for him now, and at the hour of his fumble

17. My first memory of Tebow is those sill eye blacks
with the bible verses. playing to the cameras and promoting himself seemed to me.
Always drew attention to himself - yet football more than any other sport is about team.

Alarmingly, I agree to an extent.

I detest the "look at me, look at me, look at me" compulsion of some modern athletes.

The Bible verse eye black is a more civilized version of the 0bamaite savages with their dreadlocks and dancing displays.

And the Jets are not God or even close.

33. You can only ride a wave for just so long.
His time was up.

Oh well. He can always be a missionary.


My only real gripe with Tebow is that he wears his golf glove on the wrong hand.


Whether you stand on the right side of the ball or the wrong side of the ball, the glove goes on your top hand.

Let's see, he has two NCAA Championships and the only time he has been given a chance in the NFL he took the Broncos to the playoffs.

I don't know what to think about Tim Tebow at this point.  After watching him, I'd say he doesn't perform good pre or post snap reads of the defense, he tended to lock into one reciever too much, and the mechanics of his throw are just awful.  His upside is that he is strong enough and fast enough to make up some for poor reads.  He'd make one hell of Fullback in the mode of Mike Allstot though.

I think that if he is given more time as an NFL starter a lot of the read issues would be self-correcting. Now the mechanics of his throws are another matter all together.

The primitives want him to fail because he's a Christian and his belief system doesn't conform to theirs.  If Tebow were a kook that hated Bush, etc... their whole attitude would be different.  If he were black instead of white they'd be forced to sing a whole different tune, too.  Shows how shallow they are.

"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."

The Tebow sideshow wasn't nearly as good as the Jets' head coach posting foot fetish photos of his wife on the internet.

Or getting a big tattoo of her wearing a Tebow jersey and nothing else.

It's not like the Jets actually played him to speak of, and considering how well they did, they really didn't have shit to lose in trying.  It's kind of a wash, other than losing the time he spent with them from his useful playing life.

Bingo! I hope he continues to educate the American public on his beliefs and how the sports media, or any media for that matter, does not speak for him.

I think it's safe to say he's probably done with football.

Yet some call themselves Christians.

I am sure Tim Tebow would be a much better player if given the chance. I think he would be better off in a different team.

It's possible, but I wouldn't bet on that one.  The fact the Jets sucked so bad without playing him doesn't reflect much on him, really, which is why I look at it as a wash deal.

Maybe, if he tried a different position, but chances are slim, since then he'd be competing with gifted athletes who've played the position since childhood.

And what team would willingly sign up to have that kind of chaos and polarization in their locker room?

It's hard to imagine that anyone would, now that Al Davis is dead.

Can you imagine the emotion if (a)Tim Tebow carried a (b)pit bull into (c)an Olive Garden, and ordered a (d)American beer (for the dog, of course)?

(Correct answers: (a) his chances are better than zero, about the same as a Vince Young comeback; (b) the only good pit bull is a dead one; (c) love Olive Garden, about the only national chain not within ten miles of here; and (d) Rolling Rock, in the Bible, is called "manna". I'm sure everyone can agree on those items.)
