Tebow is falling off his pedestal
I can just hear the collective sigh across the state as this is breaking a lot of hearts, but not mine.

Tim Tebow meets his worst career fears in Senior Bowl debut

Performing drills with fellow South team quarterbacks Zac Robinson of Oklahoma State and Jarrett Brown of West Virginia, Tebow fumbled the ball at least twice while taking snaps under center.

Later in team drills, Tebow fell into his same old habits — holding onto the ball too long, locking onto receivers and throwing wobbly passes. The scouts noticed.

"He looks like the third QB out there," one NFC South talent evaluator said.

2. football?
Now we talk about bad football players in GD? Does this TEBOW have any political convictions? Is he some sort of leftist or teabagger?

I once posted an AMBER ALERT for a 4 year old kid that was missing from Newburgh. The thread got locked and moved to the NY group.

6. Tebow
Edited on Tue Jan-26-10 05:20 PM by sharp_stick
is an evangelical godboy that is going to be "starring" in an ad during the Super Bowl paid for by the group Focus on the Family where he and mommy will weep over the difficult choice she had in carrying little Timmy to term under enormous pressure from the secular evil doctors that tried to make her abort poor little Timmy.

That's pretty much the extent of this shit heads link to politics.

7. He filmed an anti abortion ad for the Super Bowl, with Focus on the Family.
Yeah, I guess that's political.

3. What a shame. His god is not helping Tebow impress the scouts.
Maybe he can make a living throwing footballs to kids while preaching to their parents.

4. Many have said for years taking him in an early round as a QB would be a huge mistake.

9. He has always run the spread, and often spread QBs simply cannot adapt
quickly to the pro game. I think someone might take a chance on him, but it might be the later rounds. Any NFL team would be nuts to draft a project like him in the first round. Great college player though. Oh, and he also comes across as a brainwashed republican robot.

13. Every Florida QB was great...it's a great program with great skill players.
Most of the QB's never were a footnote in the NFL.
