The more talent you have the more you can get away with.
It's the b.s/talent ratio - Tebow is on the wrong end of that. Alot of it isn't his fault, but that's how it goes. If I'm his agent, I point out to him he is a college football legend, has an excellent future in television both of which will keep him well paid and healthy. There is no shame in being one of the best college athletes of all time.
