You forgot that he's as handy with the foreskin as he is the pigskin:

Tebow helps circumcize children in the Philippines

He's a great college quarterback, I'll admit, and he'll make a great clipboard holder in the NFL.

But if you don't think the media orgasm over him is excessive, you haven't been paying attention.

National championships do not exist in college football. Only sport where the winner is not decided solely on the field of play.

Maybe Florida was the best this year but given that it was not settled on the field and that there were at least two more teams (especially Utah) who had a case for being in that game alongside them its forever less of a “title” than a World Series or a Superbowl. Nobody disputes the fact that the Giants were the king of the NFL last year. Nobody disputes that Kansas was the NCAA basketball champ. In a poll I saw more than half of fans disputed the idea that Florida was the champ. Only sport where that happens.

Thank god for the NCAA tournament, the World Series, and the NFL playoffs. Its nice to watch teams win it on the field rather than #1 and #2 being anointed for the title game. Its nice to level a level playing field so that a team can’t go undefeated and end up without a chance to even compete for a title. Its nice that in other sports some teams aren’t eliminated before the first practice snap.

Until this joke of a system is fixed then anytime you refer to a college football national title you need to use an *.
