He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.” Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler And from the perilous pestilence. He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler.

Psalm 91:1-4

What exactly has he perpetrated that beckons their attention, one might ask?

Simple. He's open about his Christianity. It makes him a lightning rod for criticism. Never mind that he's 5 - 1 as a starter, he doesn't even have the President of Operations of his own franchise - John Elway - on his side.

Maybe he’s only an average athlete as football players go, but he has a rare spirit that helps inspire all of the Broncos. His life is not for naught.

I`m amazed (or more annoyed) at the negative reaction Tebow is getting for offering prayer on the field. In an era of chest thumping, tribal dancing, crotch grabbing and other “look at me” antics in the NFL, I find Tebow`s spirit-driven humility refreshing.

The MSM might tolerate someone identifying as a Christian, but if you practice Christianity you have gone too far.

No one should be surprised. He told us this would happen.

...they should reconcile his sportsmanship with his righteous character.

Denver isn't paying him for his righteous character, they're paying him to win football games. Right now Tebow is taking advantage of a 4th place schedule in a weak division, and a defense playing above expectations to ring up wins. But if he stops doing that then he'll be history.
