I'm not a big time football fan, even though I played my fair share of football back in the day. What a thrilling end to the Denver - Pittsburgh game when Saint Tebow threw the game winning, overtime pass to the similarly remarkable Demaryius Thomas.
"If you're married, and you have a wife, and you really love your wife, is it good enough to only say to your wife 'I love her' the day you get married? Or should you tell her every single day when you wake up and every opportunity?"And that's how I feel about my relationship with Jesus Christ is that it is the most important thing in my life. So any time I get an opportunity to tell him that I love him or given an opportunity to shout him out on national TV, I'm gonna take that opportunity. And so I look at it as a relationship that I have with him that I want to give him the honor and glory anytime I have the opportunity. And then right after I give him the honor and glory, I always try to give my teammates the honor and glory."And that's how it works because Christ comes first in my life, and then my family, and then my teammates. I respect Jake's opinion, and I really appreciate his compliment of calling me a winner. But I feel like anytime I get the opportunity to give the Lord some praise, he is due for it." Tim Tebow. Amen, brother!!
He looked pretty good throwing the ball today, except for a few plays. I’ve been saying he should improve steadily. You’d think professional coaches could get a kid with all the tools passing pretty well before long.
Absolutely dirty hit by James “I don’t care if I hurt anyone” Harrison, destroying the knee of Broncos top receiver. James Harrison should be removed from the league. Even high school players know how to tackle/wrap up correctly.
Clearly backward pass, refs missed an obvious fumble...given field position likely a 7 point swing.
Multiple face masks on Tim Tebow never called. Broncos would have a really good chance to win in regulation if called.
I have to admit, this couldn’t have been more perfect, an early commanding lead, followed by a comeback from the Steelers. Tiebow haters were probably talking considerable smack. Then Pow touchdown. I bet Maher sucked his coke spoon up his nose so hard it shot out his butt.
If Tebow was Muslim and got on all 4’s, anyone think the announcers would dare to mock him?
Love that he threw for 316.
LOL - Yeah, that Christopher Plumber guy was in "The Sound of Music". He managed to get into other movies here and there, but nothing anyone ever heard of./s
Most recently he was in a little known film called "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo". He has been working continuously since 1953.
The whining pundit class feels more comfortable seeing chest-pounding “LOOK AT ME” antics rather than Tebow’s humble prayer moment.
What Tebow does to these people is force them to think about their own approach to life... it’s making them squirm.
Tebow has plaed some games very well. The MSM hates Tebow or anthing god. They like islam, totalitarianism. I think obama supporters should be sent to gitmo, no food, their salvation direction right in their faces.
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.
Tebow Time: his favorite Bible verse is John 3:16. He threw for 316 yards in today’s OT win, averaging 31.6 yards per completion. Proof?
Or will all the athiests in the media whine about that, too?
He's praying and giving thanks. Huge foul in their books.
I am a Charger fan, but I am rooting for the Broncos! They appear to be doing something pretty special here.... The focus is all on Tim, but his recievers and that defense are working their butts off too and finding ways to win. (Unlike my Chargers, who seem to go out of their way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory).
Go Tim!
If Tebow made Obama a god and prayed to him the LSM wouldn’t be able to kiss up to Tebow fast enough.
Supposedly Wayne Rooney is a staunch catholic, although you’d never know it from his off-field behavior.
Several references to praise, which I do not know chapter and verse offhand, say make a joyful noise unto the Lord; and that praise is a sweet savor to the Lord, that we should witness to others. Also many, many admonitions to give praise unto the Lord.
vaudine
Yes, Tebow threw for 316 yards? (as in John 3:16)
Also, Rothlesberger threw his INT on 3rd and 16.....hmmm....
oh, and Tebow's average yards per completion were 31.6.....
Proves Jesus is a Bronco's fan. /s
Random events cluster, but this is kewl.
I have to see my Jewish podiatrist every couple of months. He’s an Ohio State grad and has very little in his life beyond Buckeye football. He was treating me a couple of weeks ago, while Tebowmania was just taking hold. While he was wielding his scalpel near my foot, he said, “you know, if I see any more Tebow miracles, I might consider converting.” Except for our intra-Big-10 rivalry, he’s a good friend of mine, and I am seriously considering emailing him to see if he’s still open to converting.
Won't you be seeing Timmy next week?
the SCM/sports cabal just HATE that the people love TT....
Back to Judaism?
