No. He's better than 80% of the backups in the NFL right now. It's stupid that teams like the Cleveland Browns never gave him a shot. Hell, this is a league where Tarvaris Jackson made 34 career starts -- don't tell me Tebow can't find a home with some team.
He got treated like shit by the Jets. He's a Heisman Trophy winner and a National Championship QB (twice) and you want him to play only on punt return coverage? What year is this, 1969? He got a raw deal.So wait, he's so set on being a quarterback that he won't settle for another position on the football field, but he'll give an entirely different sport a try?

This is true but isn't uncommon. Look no further than our own Marquise Williams. Under no circumstances was he going to switch positions.
Yep! Correct, no team wants the headache, and that's such a shame because that's ESPN ruining a guy's career with their over-hype. If Tebow was a introverted guy who wasn't good-looking and was a good person but not as great of a person that he really is, he'd be a solid backup to possible starter somewhere right now.
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, like every famous person ever, ever? Kardashians, Kylie Jenner, every Batchelor and Batchelorette ever, etc. etc. etc.
2008. I'll let you figure out who I'm talking about. It shouldn't be that difficult.
Oh come on. Tebow is different because he experienced unparalleled success in college football and has a unique life story as someone born overseas to international missionaries who have continued that work to the present day. I would even argue that he wears his faith on his sleeve more than the players who simply give a passing thanks to God in post-game interviews or awards ceremonies. "Tebowing" was a thing, remember?
Who said racism? I was agreeing with Blue's statement that he doesn't understand why the media loves to "humanize" great people and tear them down. Then he stated why do they pick on Tebow when lots of other football players reference their faith in every interview. My response is because he's white, therefore it's "safe" for the media to run with 'humanizing' him, partly due to subtle mocks at his staunch Christianity. The media couldn't touch that angle if Tebow was black. I'm not claiming racism, I'm just stating how the media does things. You know it's true, too.
No, I don't. The media has mocked Tebow's faith? Detractors certainly have, but I don't recall instances where the media jumped into the fray. (And no, rabble rousers like Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith don't count.)
It was Clay Travis -- a well-known provocateur -- who technically asked whether Tebow was saving himself for marriage.
I'm not making it an issue at all. I don't really care if Tebow ever plays a down again in the NFL or not.
He was all state his junior year of high school. That's the last time he played. I believe there were colleges that looked at him for baseball. Not sure if they offered a scholarship.
Nailed it. (Sports) media feeds people what they want to hear about, so we only have ourselves to blame.
This is what I've been saying.......lol. See my post above about how the whole Tebow thing is an example of why Americans are stupid.
