http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2013/04/29/tim-tebow-released-new-york-jets/2120333/ I was actually feeling bad for the guy.
The anger from losing to Florida a few years ago in the title game has all been supressed after the sh!t NYJ put him through this past season. I was sick of the media circus they gave him in college, in Denver and even that arrival in NYJ press conference followed up by the shirtless rain run post-practice. Gag. Everything since then, from starting Greg McElroy to "punt protector" duty to even that WTF Rex Ryan tattoo... ugh. Best of luck on your future endeavors... but don't you dare go to St. Louis.
The guy is a football player. I'm a little surprised that he isn't willing to move to TE. Apparently other teams inquired about him but only if he would agree to try TE. He wasn't.
Given what happened with Warner after the Arena League, maybe he should do that. At least he'd be out of the national sports pic for a while.
I admit that if he were to go to the CFL or Arena Football, I would suddenly have a reason to watch either and would seek em out on NBC Network or NFL Network or whoever has broadcast rights. However, I don't expect him to jump to either till the NFL thing doesn't pan out in preseason with whatever team takes a chance on him. PS: Just take him Jacksonville. You'll give immediately fan interest and you didn't draft a QB this year (unless Denard Robinson counts). Nike would love you forever, since they just redesigned those Jax unis too.
I'm fairly certain that the Jags ownership wants the team to die on the vine so they can bolt for LA LA Land.
If Tebow can be an NFL tight end, why do teams even bother drafting people who actually played the position? Hell, why even hire football players to play the position?
Guy has been paid millions of dollars to complete 40 percent of his passes during his career and to be on the field for 3 plays in 2012. There are plenty people more deserving of your sympathy.
I like the picture floating around on facebook that has him holding up a sign that says "Will Punt Protect For Food"
GMAFB. It had more to do with the embarrassing situation for all parties involved. Enjoy some red back at ya. And if you're looking for sob stories about people that have it so bad, don't peruse a football board.
