All of those athletes are worthy of coverage/fascination because they have talent. Tebow doesn't.

Tom Brady, to name one, and other athletes are in the high level of performers, too but aren't indicated by first names. Plenty of NASCAR drivers are more talented than Danica Patrick but the first-name attention is generally limited to her. And when ESPN posts the scroll, typically, the info will include the top five finishers of a particular race and Patrick's finish which can be 15th, 20th, 35th or 30th yet it gets mentioned when higher finishers are excluded. The other night, the scroll read “Carmelo and Chandler lead the Knicks to victory.” Is Chandler a first name, a last name? C. Anthony and T. Chandler is more professional, consistent and informative.
