Nobody crucified Tebow. He’s not on the field for the exact same reason Sam’s not. Neither can play well enough.

The silent majority is a myth. A more accurate term is “the apathetic majority”.

My position on Tebow: he was blackballed by the league because of his loud, out front Christianity. It made people uncomfortable. "But," you say "Other players talk about god and their faith and prayer all the time and nobody worries about it!" And to that I say you are referring to black players. Apparently the NFL isn't nervous about them because they don't take them seriously. But when a WHITE player says it they do.

Because the NFL leadership is racist. they patronize blacks and chuckle "oh, he talked about God again, isn't that cute?" But when a white player does it they say "oh no, not this stuff. We don't want that to be front and center from someone people will actually take seriously." Racist.

Would love to hear Rodger Goodell address that one.
