    You'd probably be wrong but that wouldn't be a first either.***

    Tebow is what Tebow is: a hyper-competitive lightning rod personality who like Kaepernic don't care what others think of him. I can respect both of them because they kneel for what they believe in.

    Substitute Tebow for hero and here you go

    Didn't kaep say he'd stand for anthem this coming year? Somehow I don't think tebow would renounce his beliefs to try and get signed

    Who said Kaep renounced his beliefs? His kneeling for the national anthem was a protest against police brutality. He no longer needs to kneel for people to know that he is against police brutality. If Tebow stopped kneeling after TDs I wouldn't say he no longer believed in God.

    Yeah, it was just a coincidence he announced he'd no longer kneel for anthem once he knew he wouldn't be in the most liberal NFL city anymore

    This! Tebow and Kap have a similar windup when they throw a football. But it was only a problem for tebow per the "experts"

    I don't like either one, but I support both for taking a knee anytime they want.

    Throwing motion was a problem for Tim, but his biggest issues were accuracy and reading defenses....

    If Tebow can get his numbers up and the Mets make the postseason I would not be surprised if he makes the postseason roster as a cheerleader/pinch hitter

    Yeah, not gonna happen. They carry 4 OFers with Conforto being the 4th. No way tebow comes close to being the hitter conforto is. I know conforto has struggled lately at big league level, but he's a .330/.402/.522 MiLB guy. I don't see tebow ever touching that and I like tebow

    Can you imagine Tebow coming up to pinch hit in a tied game bottom of the 9th in Mets stadium winner goes to the playoffs. Place would go bonkers and I wouldn't put it past Tebow to do something magical in that moment. It's coming. Might take 2 years first but that moment is coming.

    Obviously you don't really watch much football. One thing Kaep didn't do was throw INTs. His team sucked all around him and he still put up halfway decent numbers and did not throw many INT.

    I give Tebow credit:he just wins. But his throwing was atrocious most of the time. It was not a liberal conspiracy. Trust me Kaep has no shot at coming to Dallas, Houston, Kansas City, or Tennessee. These places are way too conservative for him to be acceptable to the majority of the fanbase. But Tebow could have been picked up by any of them and guess what...none of them wanted him. Also, he would have done wonders for the 2 Florida teams with ticket sales...and they passed on him too in the end.

    Tebow = .246/.310/.415

    A .725 ops isn't bad and pretty impressive to me. In his last 10 games, he's hitting .314 and only K'd 7 times in 37 PAs. He's holding his own
