A couple years ago, I turned on the TV to watch the Yankees knock out the Red Sox in Game Four, the way God had pre-ordained it to be.
Needless to say, "Man plans, God laughs!"
'Cause, you know, God really, really gives a shit about sports! Or anything else for that matter - but that's another forum.
I can't simply say that Tebow is a proven athlete who deserves at least a look. There is just too much baggage.
"It's really not about Tebow anymore," Yoder told Bleacher Report. "It hasn't been for a long time, and it really goes back to the miraculous, improbable nature of his 2011 season in Denver. That season wasn't just statistically ludicrous, it gave everyone something to argue about. Tebow's fans could point to his wins and his fourth-quarter performances. Tebow's critics could point to his first three quarters of throwing the ball like Garo Yepremian.
"But instead of it being contained there, the media—and ESPN in particular—knew it was on to something because the Tebow debate meant ratings. It wasn't just enough to talk about football or the Denver Broncos anymore. It had to become something more. The quarterback position, the SEC, religion, evangelism, sex, social issues, whatever.
