Hahahahaha.......I just hope he's not of the kind that is bound and determined to prove he's right, but I'm beginning to think he is of that ilk.

Tebow is a real role model for kids. He doesn't smoke, drink, do drugs and spends time motivating handicapped and disadvantaged youth. He is a breath of fresh air in an ego driven profession.

The thing that bugs me about Tebow is that his religion, lifestyle and good deeds are so heavily lauded that you tend to question their sincerity. I'm sure it's all true, but does every prayer and good deed have to be publicized?

I guess it's better than hearing about all the negative things athletes are involved in. But I think that's what makes him so polarizing.

I don't see where setting a good example for youth and living a clean lifestyle would be polarizing. He tries to keep his many good deeds private but the media feels the need to dramatize everything he does.

It really doesn't make sense, but the overdose makes it that way. It's too bad really, because as you say, he is leading by example.

And obviously it isn't polarizing for the majority since he's the most popular athlete :-)

We Broncos fans love Tim!

I truly hope he keeps his squeaky clean image. You know how TMZ just loves finding dirt on every celebrity/sports figure.

Just because someone is a Christian doesn't make them perfect. Any Christian that acts like they are perfect needs their head examined.
