Well one last reason not to spend my fall Sundays watching football. I hope that Timmy brings God with him because he's going to need her in the NFL.

1. Hahahahahahahaaha...

Sorry for the smack talk, but I can't help myself. Some of my best friends are Bronco fans.

6. Only because Brett idolized John Elway as a child and threw that
interception on purpose. ;) That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!

5. I think Tebow is a great pick!
If he comes to Denver to play football. He won the Heisman and two national championships at Florida, one of the premier football schools in America. Denver will love him!

8. Just because you do well at the college level, doesn't necessarily mean the same for the pros
Tebow's biggest problem is his throwing style which is too slow and gives away his intentions. Unless he changes his style(very difficult for a QB), his prospects in the pros are limited. His rushing abilities are also of limited use in the pros. That's why Bradford was the #1 pick and Tebow didn't go until #25.

9. Popular opinion was that Timmeh wouldn't be drafted until late in the second round.
Would you dispute the notion that the SEC is the class of college football? At ALL positions?

Timmeh went 35-6 in the SEC as a four year starter, won a Heisman, two SEC titles, and two BCS titles. He must have done something right.

12. Actually he wasn't a 4 year starter...
and winning a Heisman is college don't mean squat.... I can name many who won and didn't pan out in the Pros.

Tebow going over Claussen is a fucking Joke.

10. Jesus loves Tim Tebow - can't wait to see all the bible quotes on his face.
God loves football!

11. Wrong. God was an undrafted second baseman who played for Cerritos College.
Wally Kincaid tried to make him a catcher since he was short and squat, but it never worked out. He was a walk-on at Fullerton State, but didn't make the team.

He's never been interested in football, and now coaches women's softball and field hockey at an obscure midwestern high school.

13. His team on 2 undeserved national chmapionships because the BCS is fixed...
...they "won" whne he was a freshman...can't really say he contributed to that...he wasn't a starter and played very little.

14. Chris Leak was the starter on the 2006 title team.
Tebow was used strictly as a situational player.
