I see a misunderstanding of the word "praying" by Tebow's detractors. They see praying as asking. Tebow explained that he is giving thanks and acknowledgement of his love of Christ.

The Bible DOES say to pray in private, but it says to make a joyful noise before the Lord, too. I believe Tebow's actions embrace the latter.

Please let all Christians pray for Tebow, as he is ONE professional jock who is a true role model for youth--to say nothing of the rest of the country.

It’s customary for Christians to keep visible prayer in private forums, which to argue super pickily, a football game is (you have to get a ticket and go there, or else tune in coverage on TV). The biblical concern is, of course, who is getting the glory — is it you for praying or is it God for being prayed to? The Lord is not interested in the former.

The Bible says "do not be like the hypocrites" who pray in public with people preceding them down the street playing horns to attract attention. See, religiously illiterate assholes like Sullivan can quote scripture but they don't quote it in context.
