The problem with Tebow is not his beliefs ... it's the media hype of his beliefs and "how his faith" will send him into the stratosphere that gets under my skin.

This hype also diminishes the achievements of people who are equally or more true to their faith that don't show it off.

So, yeah, I was glad the Broncos didn't get to the Superbowl this year under T ... but I didn't exactly want New England to do it, either. Playoff history with the Steelers is what gets me there.
