Tebow has not yet been criticized for the type of Halloween candy he’s given out. Plus, he’s got to lose three Super Bowls. And win two.
Tebow’s got a long way to go to be Elway around this town.
I believe Tebow is a genuinely decent guy who truly believes what he preaches and tries hard to live up to it.
When he falls, as he’s bound to, it will have nothing to do with his private life. He’ll fall because he just isn’t a very good NFL quarterback. He can’t make routine throws that pro quarterbacks HAVE to make.
He won’t be brought low by scandal. He’ll just get cut or traded when it becomes clear that he can’t do the job on the field.
Someone reads his lips during a game after his third consecutive pick-six and sees the word “dammit”?
I mean, I’m a lifelong Broncos fan, I despise Tebow as much as anybody, I think he’s utter shit as a long-term answer at quarterback… but I don’t see any scandal in his future. Other than continuing to suck at his job.
He’ll trip over his dog on the stairs.
This guy deserves all the hate he gets - and this is why, what an asshole.
He’ll run for office on the 2016 Republican ticket as Sarah Palin’s running mate, becoming enmeshed in an office supply diversion scandal at his foundation’s Uncle Dick Orphanage.
Yeah! What bastard would go out and start a charity to help sick kids! Survival of the fittest and all that!
That would be ironic, given Tebow’s self-professed abstinence.
Seriously. Am I missing something, don’t ask? I expected your link to direct me to some Bachmannesque gay reformation clinic, but all I see is a charity to help sick kids.
Again, why does everyone hate Tim Tebow so much?
Because he went to Florida, presumably…or maybe that’s just me.
I don’t think it’ll happen either. Like others have said, probably the worst that will happen is that he won’t be a top-notch quarterback. But who knows, he’s pretty athletic and might make the grade after all. He has an arm like a gorilla, if he could aim it’d really be something.
I get it that the guy is a bit of a religious nuisance, but they don’t exactly flag you in the NFL for violating Matthew 6:6. I probably would quit watching if they did. But as far as scandals go Tebow is prettty weak. He spouts off like everyone else with 1st amendment rights, he isn’t even trying to change public policy… meh. The guy hasn’t done anything so this kind of speculation is a little mean IMHO.
I don’t think he’ll have an off the field scandal as he seems to be the real deal from everything I’ve heard and seen. I don’t think he’ll last as an NFL QB, but there’s no shame in that; lots of great college players didn’t cut it in the NFL.
In fact, as far as off then field issues, I can see him going Kirk Cameron more than Jimmy Swaggart. I think wacko fundy is a more likely outcome than scandal plagued fallen idol.
I was looking for irony exactly because the guy is probably bulletproof from real scandal. Makes sense in my head, probably none in many other places though.
I’m not familiar with the fellow but googling him suggests he is very clean-cut. Hurrah for him.
it may well be that he is what he purports to be. Other sportsmen with similar stature have shown themselves to fine people…Bobby Charlton, Sachin Tendulkar, Haile Gebrselassie, Roger Federer…etc. etc. etc. The list is long, there is nothing to suggest that he isn’t the real deal.
Time will tell, but I’m also reminded of Hanse Cronje. Again someone with a very high sporting stature and a very carefully cultivated clean image…yet he was done for match fixing and died in disgrace.
Nice to think that the sporting greats can be all-round fine people too.
You never know.
Because they envy him. And because they were probably bullied by guys like him back in high school.
I feel for Tebow the way this guy feels about Briney Spears. So back off, man!
If Tebow doesn’t fall, someone will make him fall. Someone will trip him.
**Justin **is probably right…
…though I have to admit that there is a better-than-average chance of this happening.
Tim Tebow was a high school bully? Wow. Not exactly scandalous but it sure lowers my opinion of him. I wonder if he ever pulled a Lori Drew. THAT might be his falling if it came out.
