If Tebow was black nobody would have given a eff about his religion.

Nobody gave a eff as it was.  He made it the defining story of him.

If Tebow was good, nobody would give a crap. He was in college and they built statues for him

I'm pretty sure if you asked Tim, he'd say religion is what defines him.

And if you're going to pretend nobody hated him because he was christian, I guess it makes sense that you'll pretend he wasn't any good.

As if it mattered whether or not he even played football, hating someone because they're christian is just as stupid as hating someone because they are gay.  Yet, here we are at goE surrounded by a bunch of ignorant rough ridin' bigots.

As stated 10 times previously, no one here and very few people elsewhere actually hated him for his religious beliefs.  He was a great college QB, not a good NFL one, like Collin Klein, Vince Young, Eric Crouch, etc.

"As stated on here" should be your first clue that's complete bullshit.  Your next clue should be the millions of people who hate him because he's Christian.

I'm kind of curious though, how LHCBS would react to a new recruit telling him that he was gay. 

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

Is anyone gonna go get the phog.net gems?

I don't think he cares about anything other than playing ball.

Exactly.  Ck was awesome, and very religious.  No one hates Tebow.

This.

Some fans might be uptight about it, but if he could play they'd get over it real quick.

Some do.

And props to Sam. What he did took a lot of courage regardless of your opinion on homosexuality.

"teabag"  omg, rofl

Let's not forget "Tebowing" or the frenzied hate that ensued after his ProLife ad at last year's super bowl.


I can't tell you how many rough ridin' people I've encountered (all leftists fwiw) that hate Tebow for no other reason than his religion.

[Cartierfor3]

FSD your anger is like, all encompassing man. Its painful to read your posts.

How did this turn into a tirade on Tebow "haters"?

[Jackstack99EMAW]

a facebook page with less than 400 likes and a random website that hasn't been updated or commented on for nearly 3 years that FSD pulled out of his ass is now proof that "millions of people" hate him solely due to religion.  Neither the website or FB page said anything about his religion btw.  Most of it actually seemed to be because of his sub par QB play.

[Dugout DickStone]

Lol at a website started by opposing fans as some kind of proof

When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears, and rescues them from all their troubles.  Chin up, bro.

I think it's a credit to society that seemingly the only consequence to this guy coming out is fake sugar dick (not even the real sugar dick) getting mad on gE about Tebow.

Great point by Trim.

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

The only people mad about tebow are ChiCat and Limestone (and JackStack, but I think he's confused).  I don't give anymore of a eff about Tebow than I do about Sam.

I did get a lot of goE poster's jorts in a wad, but that wasn't on purpose.  Actually pretty amusing.

[RickRampus]

I don't know just don't hear of many gay football players.

YOU DON'T SAY

Imo, you really could've topped this off with a Nic Cage meme

[Dugout DickStone]

Trim is right, fsd losing it over Tebow on gE is the biggest blip of the Sam announcement.

[DQ12]

I have no idea what FSD's point is. 

The bottom line is that it's cool that this guy had the courage to come out to his team (which had to have been a pretty scary thing) and it's cool that his team embraced him.

Still butthurt about the pit, aren't you?

It's okay, pal.

I'm not sure if the NYT will even bother with any further coverage, but if they call us for comment, who should we have be our mouthpiece?

It's also cool that Tim is religious and that his team embraced him, even though a bunch of bigots hate him for being religious.

Looking back, the Tebow stuff started from Pete going Orr on Elijah Lee.
