Timmy Jesus
In spite of his constant dirty play and thuggish move on Thanksgiving, the most controversial player in the NFL is not Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh. No, the player who is probably the biggest lightening rod is Denver Broncos “quarterback” Tim Tebow. While his play is a small part of the controversy, it is certainly other aspects of him that make him among the most talked about players in the entire league. See, Timmy is a Jesus freak. Wait, that is too light of a term. Perhaps Jesusaholic is more fitting.
From his time at Florida, his faith has always been front and center in that he never shuts up about it. He carries on and on about it that even other big time Christians such as former quarterback Kurt Warner has said that he probably needs to tone it down a few levels. Tebow even went as far as to make an anti abortion commercial that aired during the Super Bowl. And how’s this for going a bit too far he even said over the weekend that he did not see the game winning field goal because he was busy praying. Seriously, if you can’t pull yourself away from your God long enough to see the game winning field goal then you have some serious heavenly daddy issues.
Of course, because of his views and how he shoves them down your throat, people dislike him which in turn causes his supporters to support him that much more, such as replacing his name on his jersey with Jesus or inventing a new prayer stance called Tebowing. And speaking of shoving things down your throat, it is my opinion that Tebow is probably gay. His mannerisms and lisp when he talks suggests to me that he might be gay. The fact that he lays the Jesus talk on so thick leads me to believe that he is trying to cover up something. Honestly, I can’t believe I have not heard anybody else suggest this yet. And it is not even that he is anti gay or homophobic, (although I’m quite certain that is probably the case) as I haven’t heard him say anything about gays. And he seems to believe totally in love with a dude who may or may not have lived 2,000 years ago.
Now I should mention that I am a Denver Broncos fan. I should also mention that I am gay and an Atheist, all three of which directly conflict each other. But, I find myself rooting against Tebow. It’s not only that I find him to be a bad quarterback, but obviously it is because of his views and the disgusting manner with which he constantly flaunts those views that has me rooting against him. And it is not like he is a bad guy. I mean he does seem nice enough. And certainly if he is gay and comes out of the closet tomorrow I would run and buy his jersey and support him like no other, which in a way, makes me quite the hypocrite. But, I still find myself rooting against the guy.
All that being said, fuck Ndamukong Suh, now that guy is a total fucking asshole.

I totally agree with you. Whenever i see Tebow on TV, i will either mute it or change the channel. His obsession is gross. And it does always seem that the bigger the Jesus freak, the more gay the person is. Makes ya think….. So yeah, he’s probably gay and trying to use God as a cover. I hate when people give all credit to God….they need to give themselves some credit!
What I always find funny and hypocritical is that they always give God all of the credit when things go good but none of the blame when things go bad. If God gets the credit than that means that you believe he is in control of the event that you are crediting him for, so by that notion he should get the blame as well. But, what does Tebow do when something bad happens? he gives God credit for giving him the strength to get through it.
Did you watch that?

What particular sect is he with? I will honestly say I haven’t watched him, or seen any interviews or anything…but I see enough of the overflow to know what and who you are talking about… from my midwest/Biblebelt experience, I would guess that he is AOG, Assemblies of God, and they are super over the top crazies.
I totally agree about the giving the credit thing. Its a fine line, because I am NOT an atheist, and I do believe in a higher power… but I don’t think it is a giant dude up there playing chess with our lives… you may gain strength from it, but ultimately YOU make your own decisions in life, YOU practice your ass off every day, YOU watch your diet, YOU work out in the gym daily, and YOU get signed to an NFL team… Maybe “God” made you strong enough, and gave you the drive… but it wasn’t like YOU were possessed by god to be there pumping the iron and running the plays.
Anyone so over the top about anything irritates me. All religions have those zealots… like the fuckers who drive to protest the funerals of soldiers… and other random things they deem wrong? What the hell is that about? If there is a God, I’m pretty fucking sure he’s going to kick their ass when they try breaking into Heaven.. just sayin…
oh yeah, i saw this, I’m a devout viewer of the daily show. what is even funnier is that many of the republican candidates for president didn’t mention god in their thanksgiving statements, yet fox failed to mention that
