It's stupid that's his faith is so polarizing or even important to anyone but him.

But do you think it's because he is Catholic as opposed to another religion?

Actions beget equal and opposite reactions.

I would say that matters very very little.

No I think it's because he openly talks about God and prays on the side line and doesn't apologize for who he is. That makes a lot of people uncomfortable and in a way that's the point of doing the things Tebow does... mostly though I think it's just what he feels and who he is.

I like Tebow. He's a crappy QB yes but I like who he is and it's not even about being an outspoken christian... I'm a christian too I just go about it differently than him. But more power to him if he's honestly moved to wear his faith on his sleeve like he does. So many people do the popular thing or avoid critisim at all costs that I find it refreshing for Tebow to be who is he no matter how many people hate on him for it.

I don't like or root for the Broncos but if they win I chuckle and think Go Tebow. I mostly enjoy laughing at the haters I suppose. It's stupid that his faith is so polarizing or even important to anyone but him.


Personally speaking, I have nothing against Tebow the person. I have nothing against Tebow's religion. I am just sick and tired of the media's constant coverage. I am also sick and tired of Skip Bayless and Michelle Beadle aghast that someone could have something negative to say about the golden god that is Tim Tebow. When the Tebow fanatics pull out the "you hate his religion" card, that is when I start to poke fun at his religion just to spite them.

I am pretty sure Moses berated the Jews for worshiping a golden Tebow statue, instead of a calf. I think that was mistranslation in the text.

Id say that Suggs was 100% correct in what he said.

Tom Brady, Brett Favre and on and on and on. Sports media is reeruned (no offense to the mentally challenged). They latch onto a story and can't let it go whether it matters or not. Tebow is just their latest headline. I don't hold that against Tebow but I do find it to be a continueing commentary about the lameness of the popular sports media.

Exactly. The backlash from the Tebow fanatics for what Suggs said angers me. People, he is not God. It is okay to say that he is a shitty QB.

Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs made his triumphant return to ESPN’s “First Take” on Tuesday. During his last appearance before the Ravens beat the Steelers in Pittsburgh, he battled with talking head Skip Bayless about Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco. Two months later, Suggs, Flacco and the Ravens are the AFC’s No. 2 seed.

Suggs briefly talked about the team’s 12-4 regular season (“we’re still sitting pretty”), the Week 15 loss to San Diego Chargers (“it was a reality check”) and winning the Lombardi Trophy (“we’ve still got work to do”). But the highlight was Suggs calling out Bayless for his unwavering support of Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow.

“Congratulations to you and your boy, you and your man crush,” Suggs remarked out of nowhere. “We know you’ve got a little man crush with your boy out there in Denver. It’s alright. Congratulations. Y’all made it.”

An incredulous Bayless -- really, though, is there another kind of Bayless? -- asked Suggs for his take on Tebow.

“He’s alright. He’s alright. Let’s be honest, Skip, I can put up the numbers he was [putting up],” he said. “It’s all about numbers, baby. Give me a shot. Let’s see what we can do, create my own offense and hopefully my kicker can nail a 62-yarder to bail me out a few times, Jesus shows up. … That boy be praying on the sidelines, boy. I don’t feel comfortable [if] I’ve got to pray every fourth quarter like, ‘Oh my God, please come save me again.’”

Bayless then asked Suggs if he would rather have Flacco or Tebow, who is 7-4 as a starter in 2011, as his QB.

“Are you kidding me? Why don’t you like my quarterback, Skip? Is it his mustache? Is it his eyebrows? Is it because Tim Tebow is prettier?” Suggs said. “I understand you’ve got your man crush but you can’t force that on the rest of us. We, here in Baltimore, we’ve got a quarterback that fits our personality. … I love the kid. He plays football. He’s my quarterback. I stand by him. And I love him on the sidelines with the ice in his veins.”
Then Suggs summed up Bayless well with this: “My daughter can do your job. My daughter is four years old.”

That's it? Pretty damn tame.

The Baltimore Ravens have a playoff bye this week. Don't think that means Terrell Suggs' mouth will be taking it easy.

The linebacker took a mostly unprovoked shot at Tim Tebow during a Tuesday appearance on ESPN's "First Take."

"With all due respect we don't need God on our sidelines," Suggs said. "Once again God had to save Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos. He couldn't even give them two drives? Seven to three? [Referring to the score Denver lost by on Sunday.]"

When it is all said and done he is a joke and should not be mentioned as far as rookie QBs this year as there are couple that have shown they are very talented. He brings this on his self with wanting to buy air time for a ad showing his beliefs during the Superbowl. He proudly champions his beliefs and people who do not share them will take shots at him. I will be more than happy when this clown is no longer front page news.

At least Brady and Favre actually played professional QB. Whatever the **** Tebow is doing is not playing professional QB. It is akin to a shitty refrigerator crayon drawing being heralded as the greatest piece of art in human history.

Sorry. Tame.

Dude, I used to be an evangelical atheist. No one's getting nailed to a cross, so what's the big deal? Words? Pshaw.

I agree with that. I imagine the media love has to do with his success in college... carrying over to him pulling games out of his ass this year. He was the golden boy at Florida... now look at him win as a starter in the NFL even though his numbers say he's terrible.

Again... I blame the media for making him into a polarizing figure... not Tebow himself. He is who he's always been but now the stage is bigger and ESPN and company need to have a story to tell.
