Get Rid of É on Keyboard. Find yourself typing away and go to hit the Question Mark and have É instead? press CTRL+SHIFT (press CTRL first and while holding press SHIFT, sometimes you have to do it twice in a row to disable.)Mar 30, 2011

Why didn't Jesus reward his outstanding faith with a career? Could have been a fantastic face and role model for christian athletes? Much better than the current ones who praise him and then beat up their wives, do drugs, shoot people, etc

Honestly, Tebow is one of those rare dudes who when he talks about his faith, I actually believe he's true about it and it's not just a "thing to say to make people like him" cause of how much of USA is like "God's country" type of stuff, even though the majority doesn't walk the walk.

However, I think he's still human and his stubbornness to realize yes he had an amazing opportunity but his inability to try a different position is what screwed him over. IMO, he's still a great role model. Can never trust the media but I once read something about him actually abstaining from sex with his SMOKING HOT girlfriend at the time, and thought huh wow if a dude that built and promising can say no that's good for kids who are trying to follow in that path.

I don't think his story is over yet but I doubt it will end with big time football or baseball career. He's a great guy for being an analyst IMO and then just giving back to the community.

Sometimes Christians (myself included) think God cares too much about what we do. I believe that as long as you're doing stuff to spread his word, then he doesn't really care what you do for a career. Just be an example wherever you work. And I think Tebow and other athletes sometimes think "God I follow you, why don't you let me succeed." Sometimes you're just not good enough and that's okay.

Sorry for the essay :laugh:

Lol I was only being a smartass, but I do like Tebow and think he does represent his beliefs in a positive manner unlike most athletes.

Still can't believe he is more willing to play minor league ball than move to TE, although if he's successful it's likely the better move for his wealth/health.
