Fox Sports wrote an article today about the rivalry (or creating the rivalry). The article is mostly Stafford heavy and points out that Stafford is ahead in career wins and head to head wins. Even though Tim Tebow led all quarterbacks in pretty much every statistical category, the author still maintains Stafford is the better choice ( Stafford has thrown 26 touchdowns and 23 interceptions in the last two years).

I’m going to be biased when I say this (I am a Gator alum and fan), but Tim Tebow is probably 10 times the quarterback Matt Stafford is right now. Fox has a poll up on their page asking people to vote who the better quarterback is. Click here to cast your vote.

Hey, First of all I’m an die hard Auburn Fan. But who can’t love Tebow. I’ve been impressed every time I’ve seen him play!! But what impresses me the most is that he has helped to pave the way for a lot of homeschoolers to be able to play in REAL teams! I was homeschooled myself and just to hear all the media about him has validated the fact that homeschoolers aren’t handicapped in any sort of way! And now many homeschoolers are able to play in sports that we couldn’t before Tebow came around. He has sparked a a new interest in getting kids into sports no matter if they are public schooled or homeschooled! Several states have done the same as Florida in letting homeschoolers play, and that in and of itself is awesome!! As Tebow said ‘Football is a means to an end, and the end is to me is to be a good role model’ Go Gators and WAR EAGLE!!!!

We had heard rumors of Tim Tebow assisting in circumcisions last week, but today was the first time it was put in print by a major newspaper. The Orlando Sentinel reported the story today and even has a picture of Tim Tebow in one of those doctor jump suits. “The first time, it was nerve-racking,” he said. “Hands were shaking a little bit. I mean, I’m cutting somebody. You can’t do those kinds of things in the United States. But those people really needed the surgeries. We needed to help them.”

It’s a really cool article that all Tebow fans need to read. The best quote from the whole this was by Shaun Young, a UF graduate student. “You always hear that this kid can do anything,” Young said, “and then I see him doing surgery. Maybe he can do anything.” It’s funny, but true at the same time. It’s stuff like that that just gets under the skin of rivals.

Tim Tebow just continues to amaze us on and off the field. We’ll have more stories like this as they develop.

Hicken talks to Tim about his faith, winning the Heisman, and what he thinks of the 2009 NFL Draft. The video starts off with an advertisement so don’t let it fool you. You can view it on the FCN website, or by clicking here.

At an FCA meeting (last night I think), Tebow and his family were there giving speeches and talking to the members and kids. Tebow allegedly said something like “I want to bring 3 National Championships to Gainesville.” If you read between the lines, he is suggesting that he will stay through his senior year… that is the only way he could get 3 rings since he didn’t get one last season.

It would be awesome for the Gators if Tim Tebow decides to stay all four years. It might piss of Newton or Brantly, but that’s their problem. Tebow is a huge asset to this team and the community. The longer he stays here, the better.

Today’s question comes from Michael in Miami, FL.

Some people say that Tim Tebow stated that he would not go to the NFL because he wants to work in the church. Is this true?

I’m not sure who is saying this, but I would say with 99.9% positivity that Tim Tebow will enter the NFL Draft in 2009 or 2010 and join an NFL Roster. While Tim Tebow is a follower of Christ and does a lot of work for the Church, he realizes that God gave him the talent to play football at a high level. Tim uses football as a means to help others (like the charity powder puff game he organized for charity).

The years an athlete can play a sport at a professional level are very limited, and you have to take advantage of it if given the opportunity. It is very possible that some day after football that Tim Tebow will work with his Church and do missionary work just like his mentor/friend Danny Wuerffel. But you can say with certainty that Tim Tebow will go to the NFL after his college career.

Tim Tebow should stay at Florida for 4 years, that puts him in the 2010 NFL Draft. The Jags just inked David Garrard to a new deal, so they won’t be looking for an immediate starter. If Jacksonville, Tebow’s home town, selected Timmy in the first round of the 2010 draft, then coached him up for 2 years on the sideline… they would be ready to rock Tebow as a starter in 2012. That gives Garrard plenty of time to be the starter and to develop Tebow. Garrard would be like 35 years old by then.

How awesome would it be for Tim Tebow to play football in front of his hometown Jags in Jacksonville, only 75 miles from Gainesville? I know it’s still a few years away, but a kid can dream right?

If Tebow actually drove a car (I heard he gets around by flying), he could lower all our gas prices? Tebow can drill for oil in the Alaskan wildlife forests and can open new refineries in the Gulf of Mexico.

Tim Tebow can solve the United State border issues by stiff arming every illegal immigrant that crosses the border.

The United States should start printing new money with Tim Tebow’s face on the bill. New Tebow dollars would surely get the economy back on it’s feet.

If only Tebow were so tied up with making A’s in school and participating in football practice, he would have the time to help save our country. Until then, we’ll just have to be happy with what we can get…. a badass QB.
