I would like to thank Tim Tebow's lord and savior (tm) Jesus Christ(r) for making him lose.

Maybe next time he'll keep his preachy bullshit to himself and stop forcing it on the rest of us.

Or maybe God decided to feed a starving child in Africa, instead of fucking with a football game.

[Autumn]

1. Me too

I certainly hope God decided to stick with the starving children.

[TheCowsCameHome]

2. Maybe God had a bye week,and didn't warn Tim.

[originalpckelly]

4. Or maybe Jesus and Tim had a fight?

"I can't stand your fucking messiah complex anymore!"

"And what's with the way you pray to me? I keep thinking you're going to ask me to marry you, but you break my heart every time!"

[PeaceNikki]

6. @Jesus_M_Christ tweeted:

"Sorry Tebow went in the shitter there for a minute. Dad had to step out to get some cigs and beef jerky."

[rfranklin]

3. Who is Tim Tebow?

Sounds vaguely familiar but I really don't know who that is. Is he a TV evangelist?

[originalpckelly]

5. Yes, he's the official fundie nut of the National Foolsball League.

He gets down, and I'm not shitting you, prays to god every fucking football game. He is the one who was in the anti-abortion commercial in the super bowl a few years back.

[dems_rightnow]

9. Quarterback

For the Denver Broncos.

[DavidDvorkin]

7. May it keep on happening

Amen.

[originalpckelly]

12. I really don't super enjoy football...

but from time to time I would watch when I was desperate for something to do. He's basically killing all the like that still remained in me.

[hlthe2b]

8. Hey, I live in Denver... It is so ridiculous, I don't even watch local news anymore...

I do, however, find it amusing to see the pained look on Elway's face when Tebow wins. He so dislikes Tebow and thinks he is a lousy QB, but even his mildest comment incited such backlash from the Xian right, that he can't say anything. Now, John Elway forever "owned" this town, so I can't help but find the whole situation amusing--particularly since Elway is a Rwer himself.

BTW, if you haven't seen the SNL skit on this, I think it is posted on DU or go to HULU.com or Huffpo... Both have links. It is hilarious.

[originalpckelly]

13. Shit, I have to see that, just saw it on the news.

I live here too!

[blaze]

24. Will this loss tone down the local media?

One station led their intro to sports talk by saying, "We promise not to mention the name for the next 10 seconds."

And the SNL skit was great!!

[Muskypundit]

10. Amen.

[Upton]

11. Actually, Tebow got the equivalant of a sports miracle anyway

the second place Raiders blew a 13 point lead in the final 5 minutes...meaning Tebow's Broncos remain in first place in the AFC West all alone..

[LeftyMom]

15. That's not a miracle, that's just the Raiders.

Anyhow, everybody knows they play for The Other Team.

[aaaaaa5a]

25. He works in mysterious ways! nt

[Ikonoklast]

14. Jesus gave the point spread, covered, and collected.

Hey, when it comes to getting paid, even Christ plays the odds.

[Old and In the Way]

27. I took the Pats with +8....I bet with a couple of True Belivers.

"It's Tebow and the Pats can't win in Denver, anyways."

Thank you, Jesus!

[backscatter712]

16. Tebowing is soooo yesterday. The new trend is Teblowing!

[originalpckelly]

23. Hey, at least something will come of it...

or rather someone...

[jaysunb]

17. LOL !

[backscatter712]

18. And don't you love the fundie mindset?

Win a football game: "THANK GOD FOR GIVING ME THE VICTORY!"

Children starve to death and die of AIDS in Africa: "God works in mysterious ways."

[malaise]

19. +1,000

I'm lovin' it.

[neverforget]

20. After every turnover, sack, incomplete pass, etc, I asked the TV where Jesus was?

Why wasn't he on his knees thanking God for that?

[aaaaaa5a]

21. Outstanding Post.

I was waiting for a thought like this.

Question?

If god loved the Broncos and therefore helped them with miracle wins, does today's results mean God loves the Patriots more?


Given, how ridiculous this topic has been over the last few weeks, that is actually a legit question.


Tom Brady > Tim Tebow

[Justice wanted]

22. I too would also like to thank Tebow's God for knocking him down a few pegs. Now what will

his worshippers do?

[aaaaaa5a]

26. I guess they now worship Tom Brady and the New England Patriots. nt

[NavyDem]

28. Actually, Jesus explained it all in this video

http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/Tebow/1374394

It's a funny watch, I promise.

[Odin2005]

29. I hate Tebow, too, but this belongs in Sports or Religion.
