Conservatives Complain Sam Is Treated Better For Being Gay Than Tebow Was For Being A Christian

[get the red out]

32. This is insane!

Tebow was worshiped as a demigod. He had a Super Bowl commercial to push his anti-choice agenda.

I watch SEC sports, since that's the conference Kentucky plays in and I can tell you the SEC fans from all teams worshiped Tebow for his Fundi-ness. No other opposing player got such worship, he was white and Fundy so sports fans in the SEC thought he was the greatest thing since sliced bread. I was so sick of hearing how wonderful he was that I felt relief when he graduated. Tebow was ridiculed because he was made such a big deal of, and people outside the south (and a few of us in the south) just got sick to death of him being put on a pedestal.

I keep seeing Michael Sam looked down on for being gay. The media is making a HUGE deal of it, but without the worship. They seem almost stunned that a highly talented football player could be gay. I feel like all Michael Sam wants is a shot at the NFL, like any other player that was a star on his college team. He's not asking for a Super Bowl commercial to promote taking away someone else s rights.

And something else I notice, southern fundies certainly don't go all ga-ga over African American players in the SEC who are very religious. They don't promote and worship them like they did Tebow.
