But this is one of his happy photos. :)

And even though he was acting here, that is a 100% genuine smile.

He could’ve been the next Earl Morrall.

This is a happy photo. After I got through the 10 year basic training with him. We had a great relationship. He was just a teddy bear that could put your left pinky toe in your right eye in about a half a second..lol. I greatly admire him and miss him terribly. He was a 2nd father to me. Yeah, i like the smile.

RE: Tell me the net worth of each person and then tell me who’s privileged.

Well, they’re both millionaires as far as I know, so both are privileged as far as I’m concerned, and I don’t give a hoot about their money.

I think we really got a lot of the real Bronson on screen. I think thats why i tend to like him. He was happy doing his work as well, got a lot of genuine him on screen.

These people are clueless. Urban Meyer is the coach of this team, who was also Tebow’s coach at Florida. That match doesn’t exist for Kaepernick and this team/coach. Zero comparison. Tebow was and is widely popular in Florida - this team is in Florida. There’s another match for Tebow that doesn’t exist for Kaepernick.

This is an excellent PR move if nothing else - bringing a “favorite son” back home to a Florida team.

One thing the Jags are short in is Leadership. Tebow is strong in this area. Who is to say he doesn’t make the team, and end up being a starter? IMO, he was a helluva QB for Denver. I can think of several top tier QBs who failed at the number one goal, winning games, especially playoff games.

Aren’t they both about equally ‘white’?

Leadership is nice, but you still gotta execute. And a 33 year old who’s never played the position before is going to have a hard time there. As for Tebow’s “winning” so grossly over stated. Yea he won one playoff game against a team with a massively depleted defense that got more depleted as the game wore on. This after a 3 game losing streak where Tebow threw less than 10 passes a game. Then they got clobbered in the next round.

Those are decent numbers, but stats don’t mean jack if you’re not winning games. Bottom line - One win, ten losses.
It’s like Dak Prescott last year. He was on pace to shatter passing records, and Dallas had a 1-3 record.

To me, Kaepernick was a one-trick pony which teams figured out. Look at first read, and if it’s not open take off and run. Teams figured out how to defend him the same way they figured out Robert Griffin III after his first year.

Kaepernick doesn’t want to play football. The only thing he wants to play is a perpetual victim.
