buy yourself a ticket to florida...seek out the Tebow...pray he lays hands on what's ailing you and BE HEALED!

it's only a matter of time before you become one with the cult of Tebow. Do not resist. The Tebow can heal you.


for real, this kid is buying his own crap already. it wasnt major surgery EVERYONE was expecting him to be 100% by spring practices correct?




GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- Florida quarterback Tim Tebow walked onto the basketball court Saturday with his right arm in a sling.

When he walked off, the sling was dangling from his left hand.

Tebow, the 2007 Heisman Trophy winner, ripped off his sling at the end of a brief speech at halftime of the Arkansas-Florida basketball game in an effort to assure Gators fans he would be fine following surgery on his non-throwing shoulder.

"Don't worry about this. I'll be fine," Tebow said as he pulled off the sling.

Tebow had surgery Monday, one day after he announced he was staying at Florida for his senior season, and was expected to be ready for spring practice in April. He had a bone spur removed in hopes of reducing chronic inflammation.

Tebow's appearance Saturday came as the Gators were honored again for winning their second national championship in three years.

Several players, defensive coordinator Charlie Strong and coach Urban Meyer received standing ovations as they walked to midcourt.

Strong took a mild shot at anyone who thought Oklahoma was going to continue its streak of scoring at least 60 points against his defense.

"Anyone who thought Oklahoma was going to score 60 on us, it's a shame," Strong said, adding that he has everyone on his two-deep depth chart returning. "If someone scores a touchdown, don't get too excited. We're going to find a way to win."

Then he added, "When you have Tim Tebow, you always have a chance."

Cornerback Joe Haden thanked Tebow and linebacker Brandon Spikes for staying in school, then said, "We're going to win it again next year."

The loudest ovation -- not surprisingly -- was for Tebow.

He earned the offensive MVP award in the Bowl Championship Series title game. Tebow was 18-of-30 passing for 231 yards, with two touchdowns and two interceptions in the 24-14 victory. He also ran for 109 yards, most of it in the second half.

"I think we proved who should have won the Heisman this year," receiver David Nelson said.

Isn't Tebow a left handed passer anyway?

If you're already dead, maybe he can reverse the Earth's spin on its axis and turn back time.

I thought Tebow was a guy who didn't buy into his hype? Guess I was wrong.

2007 - T Rex melts again, quits the board.

2008 - Florida gains a MNC behind a gator-chopping FB/QB faith healer.

Coincifuckingdence? Cain't be.

Yea..the Tebow shit ain't going away anytime soon. Thought maybe if he would leave early he would get exposed in the NFL for what he is...a grandstanding, self-absorbed, marginally-talented college quarterback. Wonder how many good deeds he does once the media goes away?

Sam,

I hear you. And I said as much in the BCS Championship thread. I have respect for Tebow. I think he truly means well in the good he is doing. And I agree it is not his fault ESPN is cramming it down our throats.

Still, it does not mean we can't hate for it. :waz:

Even Cinder's gash would taste good if it were battered and fried.

All we know about the kid is what the media feeds us, and everyone in here knows I ain't on the Jesus bandwagon, so...

I think Tebow is sincere in his work with kids in foreign countries, his belief in a god, etc. I think it's great that he assists those in need (wish the cramming Jesus down their throat wasn't a necessary inclusion) and I don't see him "grandstanding". I think that stuff really matters to him. Don't care for his, or any other athlete's, constant pointing to the sky, eye-black messages, etc., but that's his business.

Tebow's an athlete on a level like few others. He's in a very prominent program. And the jock-worshippers at ESPN and every other network are slobbering all over the kid. Ain't Tebow's fault.
True, but he sure seems to make the most of every opportunity ESPN hip-gyrates to him like a drunken bonobo chimp in heat. He probably is sincere but I guess we won't know for sure until the football and all the hero worship goes away.

I'm just calling my shot here in saying Tebow's going to be back in Gainesville 5 years from now trying to get more run from his accomplishments at Florida. I don't think he'll be in a third world country reading books to school children and helping dig wells if the cameras don't accompany him.
