    That's fine by me, as long as he's not on my team.

      I'm sorry I've been so stupid. I've suffered a great personal loss and I'm dealing with it by lashing out at everyone. I'll leave everyone alone.

        ESPN has Ryan Leaf live in studio. For what reason? I have no freakin clue.

I'm OK with doing it to prisoners or to scare at-risk kids straight, but I draw the line at kids. I guess using fear is something that people of his ilk love to do. And in Tebow's world you can be a good person, that gives back, raises a family, but if they don't think the way he does then they are going to hell. I know plenty of good Muslims, Jewish and Hindu that are nice people that do wonderful things for the people, but they get cast to hell because it doesn't fit his system.
            Right, and I understand what you're saying, as I know many people of different religions that are fantastic people. But a lot of people are looking up to a guy that praises the Lord and is vocal about it. I think that's cool.

                  Last I heard, he had been booted from West Texas A&M for stealing pain killers from players. He was coaching golf there and the QB coach there as well. Sure hope he did clean himself up in rehab.

                          I thought this article raised some interesting points.

                          What if the NFL had a Muslim quarterback, and people mocked him by miming praying to Mecca? Bet that's not funny, right?

                          On the other hand, like the article says, that hypothetical quarterback probably doesn't have the ardent batch of defenders Tebow has either.

                            Wrong, that would be just as hilarious, if not more so.

                              Would it be viewed that way in the media as a whole though? Hell no.

                                That mythical QB would have been scared off by death threats (or actually killed) long before reaching the NFL. There are Muslims in the NFL, they just have enough sense not to make a public display of their faith. Tebow could take a lesson from them.
