    i hope not because that sort of thig always annoys me. the power of celebrity making a mockery of the only real meritocracy, sports. i am already in a state of rage that jeff francouer has a job purely based on fan pressure, and that danica patrick has a nascar ride purely because o the novelty of her being a woman.

    yeah it sucks but it happens. I think Ryan is especially in trouble though because of the emphasis the media has put on him being on the hot seat. He can play the hard ass all he wants but I'll bet he folds like alot do when the pressure is put on him.

    i suspect he knows that playing tebow fulltime only makes his firing more possible. he isnt smart enough to relaize that tebow should not play at all but yunno, baby steps.

    It's hard to fight the upper management, especially when they are the idiots who made the deal for Tebow in the first place. They didn't make that deal so Tebow could be some motivational leader, or sell some jerseys, although, now that I think about it, maybe they are smarter than I give them credit for and that is exactly why they did it.

    yeah who the fuck knows. denver seemed to figure things out eventually and send the idiot packing. and if new york is just making press and jersey dollars and greg mcelroy is the real backup and tebow never actually throws the ball, then good for them i guess.

    Teebz is really burning it up tacking tackles for a loss and throwing one terrible pass every 4 games

    Yeah Tebow sucks, he's like Mark Sanchez except Sanchez can't run, throw or improvise nor does he have the Lord Jesus Christ on speed dial.......It's Tebow time Martin.

    neither of them can throw or improvise. sanchez can make a decent throw occasionally, tebow cant ever make a decent throw because even his very rare accurate throws are delivered way too slowly. tebow can run, but not as good as the worst RB in the league, many of whom can throw better than he can. even by QB standards, tebow is not a particularly amazing runner.

    for any situation that you use tebow, a running back would be better. the wildcat can work for maybe 3 plays a game, but only if the direct snap goes to ronnie brown in his prime or darren mcfadden. tebow brings negative value to the team.

    the one throw he made yesterday went 4 yards and was so inaccurate that the guy had to go high to catch it, which he did, but then was hit hard in the ribs and fumbled. the pass should have hit him in the numbers.

    it is not suprising that a team that gives mark sanchez a contract is the same team that signs tebow and has rex ryan desperate to make news every week. all style, no substance. the good news for me as a new york fan is that the giants (ownership, QB and coach) are exactly the opposite.

    do you hate Tebow because he loves Jesus or because he is an awful QB.

    i do not hate him, but he is terrible. i am fascinated by people who say he is good because of the depths of their irrationality.

    i am intrigued when people are famous and considered good at something even though they are awful. the best examples are tebow and jeff francouer. he is literally one of the worst regular players in history (trust me on this i have been diligent with my research) i can go on for hours about francouer. another example is danica patrick, who is annoying for being a bad driver, and a petulant bitch, and not even really very pretty.

    channing tatum is another example.i am always curious about people who manage to reach elite status at something while being terrible. the great thing about sports is that these people should not exist, because performance should matter. but it doesnt. people who run sports teams are often pretty stupid. thats why the book "moneyball" is so good. it is about exploiting irrational people who are bad at analysis. smart GMs are happy when their rival signs tebow or francouer.

    i dont hate people who love jesus. on a certain level i cant respect them, buts thats no big deal.
