tryfuhl 05-07-2010, 12:53 AM Well if actually got the below score I agree with this poster:
kpweaver27 (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/03/23/tebows-pre-wonderlic-prayer-request-falls-flat/) says: March 23, 2010 7:27 PM (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/03/23/tebows-pre-wonderlic-prayer-request-falls-flat/#comment-1080958) He scored a 22 of 50. He should have studied more and prayed less. Something all of America could follow.
Yeah, I mean I've taken the sample tests and always get above a 40. Granted I'm not taking it there, but I haven't been in school for 7 years.. only did 2 semesters in college. No excuse to perform that poorly, it's a very simple test.
GMScud 05-07-2010, 12:54 AM No, he just does it during the Wonderlic (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/03/23/tebows-pre-wonderlic-prayer-request-falls-flat/).
Ladies and gents I'll be here all night. I think I did hear Tebow say that that never happened, so who knows.
Exactly.
hooskins 05-07-2010, 12:57 AM Basically. Imagine a presidential candidate claiming atheism. The whole atheism = evil connotation is ridiculous.
Yeah.
I would just like for people to keep their beliefs to themselves. IMO, if that PFT story is true, that is a bit too much from Tebow. Having an after hours Bible study is great, but spending team time advertising it, announcing it (what he must have done), etc. is too far.
Also I dont buy the whole "this is just because he is a high pick rookie" argument. Bradford was drafted before him. Its a combination of Tebow's beliefs and possible Gator Nation weighing in.
SirClintonPortis 05-07-2010, 01:58 AM No they arent, but the causal(NFL) and religious fan will buy the Jersey to support what he stands for.
Well, with the info being relatively incomplete for statistical data analysis, we're at a stalemate. Still, given that 30% of the buyers are Floridians, and assuming another 20% are Broncos fans getting their new fix, I still think it is sort of a stretch that there would be that many buyers buying for religious reasons, but that's my speculation.
tryfuhl 05-07-2010, 03:46 AM I'm not buying an NFL jersey for another team unless it's of a family member or close friend, which doesn't look like it will be happening anytime soon. If I loved the kid in college I'll get a college jersey.
hooskins 05-07-2010, 10:15 AM Seems we are at an impasse good Sir. I would agree Gator fans are a driving force in these sales as well but i think the additional religious factor is propelling an otherwise so-so jersey.
mredskins 05-07-2010, 10:23 AM He's actually not "born again." Born agains are people that lost their way in life and then "found Jesus" as they say. Tebow is the son of missionaries. He's been this way from day 1. Sure he's a religious guy, but he's not fake, and he doesn't walk around pushing his beliefs on people. He's just himself- and intense, competitive, and very religious dude. He'll be good for the NFL just for the charity work he'll do while he's in league, even if he never amounts to much as a player.
With shitheads like Big Ben, Santonio Holmes, Marvin Harrison, Pac Man Jones, and all the other trouble makers, guys like Tebow are good for the NFL, even if he never turns into a star player.
I was speaking of Buster not your hero.

Dude honestly he pushes it on folks at times and you know it. I am in his camp and hope he does well but lets call a spade a spade.
Regardless of the religious angle he's an extremely hyped up player coming out of college. I think that probably has more to do with the jersey sales.
Mechanix544 05-07-2010, 10:33 AM I have a doug williams and art monk authentic mitchell and ness jersey if anyone wants to buy em. just msg me. I never wear em.
