Tim Tebow (Blessed)

Coming home from work the other day, I saw a rusted out F-150 on the turnpike with the following on the vanity plate: 15TEBOW

The man-love for this QB down here is borderline psychotic.

Gatorubet, do you have a dancing Tebow on your dashboard yet? :p

Can you imagine how bad it would be if he ended up playing for tOSU and having that much success?

I think any fan-base would be ecstatic to have a QB like Timmy, and rightfully so.

All of the hype just gets to me a bit living down here because I still see the "Honk if you sacked Troy Smith" bumper stickers all over the place. And, I still get comments directed at me about that game every time I go golfing since I have an Ohio State bag.

Speaking of that, I am out of here to go play nine with my son.:oh:

Understand completely...I catch it constantly also. I was serious though, Florida at least has 2 other major football schools to at least deflect the lunacy...in Ohio, it would be off the chart.

I honestly disagree with you there... I live in Gainesville and I have flat-out NEVER seen any man-love for one person as I see for Tebow. It's actually not even close. The hyperbole surrounding him is extraordinary. People think he's a GOD for returning for his senior year. The commentator hype that is thrown at him (look at him cheering on the defense!!! that goal-line stand was all tebow!!!) is believed word for word and more. Almost every fan down here thinks he's already sown up the "best player of all time" by a mile. It's really quite ridiculous.

In Ohio, I think there would be a crapload of manlove, but I just can't imagine it being to this extent.

...and that would be any different from tOSU fans how? Pre-Fiesta bowl, Troy Smith could have done anything he wanted in Columbus. That was after two incidents, early negative publicity at St. Eds, and multiple media mistakes.

Imagine Troy's legacy if he did everything right? Ohio would have imploded from man-love.

If tOSU had won either of Archie's last two Rose Bowls, it would have meant #1 in one or both of the final polls. So he was in two 'NC' games, but as you are aware, the real difference is winning them.

Tim Tebow is a perfect example of no matter what you do in life..People will hate you. If Tebow was a buckeye,the worship would be just as high around here. He plays in the best conference in football and wins. His off the field work is phenomenal. His on field work is phenomenal. There's a million college football fans who have waited awhile for him to screw up and to much of their disapppointment..It really hasn't happened. The only thing people can say is..."he'll never be an NFL quarterback"..

I'm sure if TP ever reached Tebow status that people around here would say..This is just ridiculous
