I'm searching my memory, but I can't recall Joe Lapointe (or anyone at the New York Times) writing a story about Curt Schilling in 2004, as he was actively campaigning for Bush's reelection and also leading the Red Sox to their first world championship in 80 years.

I wasn’t sure which team to root for until now. I liked Indianapolis because I like Tony Dungee and Peyton Manning. I like New Orleans because they’ve never been to a Super Bowl before. The Colts just won out.

"The first ad — which will be shown on CBS — is an antiabortion message from Focus on the Family that includes Tim Tebow, the former Heisman Trophy winner from Florida."

No bias in that characterization.

Must be nice to be the NYT, and be the arbiter of all things.

The NYet Times' Boston paper ran a similar story:

Solid backing by Saint, Fujita unafraid to support gay rights(Boston Globe ^ | February 3, 2010 | Adam Kilgore)

If ending "don't ask, don't tell" in the military is so important, how about ending "don't ask don't tell" in the media so we will know why homosexual activist stories are so important to those in the lavender mafia.

They must have given up the fight to censure the ad and have pivoted to the strategy of twisting their coverage of the issue to a slanted presentation/apology for the "abortion choicers" as the "good guys".

They know the impact that this ad will have and are shaking in their boots.

Well, based on this, and the unending hand-wringing over Katrina:

Go Colts!

Fujita is an idiot of the first order. He was also very outspoken on keeping Rush Limbaugh out of the NFL ownership club. I hope he gets embarrassed on the field on Sunday, as I’m sure his entire team will.

“There is a certain stigma that comes with being from Berkeley,” he said. “And I’m proud of that stigma.”

Nuff said.

He's going to be a proponent of whatever the Progressively-in causes of the moment are.

Yet another reason to root against the Saints.

"Former Heisman Trophy winner"? Did they take it away from him?

Tebow is "a Heisman Trophy winning..." or "the 2007 Heisman Trophy winner..." He is not a "former Heisman Trophy winner..."

I am truly offended by his comments. The Dallas Cowboys always have been, and always will be “America’s Team”!

Once CBS and the NFL accepted that Tebow ad, they should have know that some players would begin to run their mouths about their politics and social issues.

Fujita needs to STFU and play football. I’m so sick of celebrities trying to push their alternative lifestyle agenda.

Who would you rather have anchoring your linebacker corps, this clown from Berkeley, or someone like Chris Spielman who should be in the hall of fame.

Dear Scott. Some advice for you: “It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.”

Good for Fujita that he supports the pro-life ad, but notice how he talks tolerance but doesn’t give CBS the benefit of the doubt. CBS says the ManCrunch ad violated its standards, and Fujita just assumes that the rejection was over the fact that it’s a gay site, not actual content.

Another reason that I will be rooting against the New Orleans Katrina Saints! I hope the Colts crush them, since it appears the liberal, leftist media shilling hacks & socialist-commie pigs in general are rooting for the Saints. Go Colts!!!

This guy shows the wisdom of the Cowboys letting him go a few years ago.
