Wacca hit the nail on the head. Another thing that I hate are when these Tebow/Gator fans who don't like the Jags brainwash all of their family (many whom have no freaking clue about sports) into believing that "Tebow would save the Jags". So now you have these senior citizens who don't like sports preaching the Tebow BS because their freaking Jag hating grandson told them some off the wall s@*t like "the Jags are gonna move to LA because they didn't get Tebow". I witnessed this crap for myself with my Mom's friends talking BS to her; My mom is a Jag fan, and she don't even let it get to her because she knows better.

And then it goes national, which means my friends in Virginia decide that everything they know I know about Jacksonville no longer has any merit, and ignore the game they just attended with me where 65,000 people attended, and start lecturing me about why we simply must sign Tebow to sell tickets.

I've been waiting patiently for about 3 years to see Wacca post this!!!!

OK, now I'm waiting for you to have more fun with the SEC guy on Facebook who said Gabbert went to "East Nowhere State" and ridiculed you for going to Clemson. :D

What else was there to say...  when those types start, I can't stop laughing because I keep hearing Prisco's, "Essss  Eeeeeee Seeeeeee" in my head.  It's too distracting.

I know these types exist, and I do of course believe the SEC is the best conference.  But when some fellow who can't even spell is demeaning your ability to evaluate football on the grounds that you went to Clemson and he roots for SEC schools, the cognitive dissonance starts to set in.

It just irks me when something gets popular and everyone piles on top because its cool to hate on somebody, its pathetic. Shame on you all.

Don Redman happens to be a popular man on these forums.  People have piled on him because his views of what downtown should be don't match their's.  People jump on Kim Daniels because she thinks she can heal people. Where's your post in defense of them?  Why do you care so much about Tebow anyway?  He seems like a good guy that should successfully land on his feet whether he's playing football, developing restaurant chains or leading missions regardless of what sports fans think.

Where's the beef!

Aside from saying he isn't a great NFL Qb, where has anyone said anything awful about him personally? I think that is part of the problem, if non-fans don't  deify him, we are somehow bashing him.

I think he would make a fine backup somewhere. Here in Jax, the mindless fans would immediately cause a QB controversy that would send the team toward yet another year of lost opportunities.

Go Omaha Beefs!


Beef offer Tim Tebow a contract

OMAHA, Neb. -- The Omaha Beef have a job waiting for Tim Tebow if he wants it -- and the Nebraska indoor football team will even pay him $75 a game.

A day after Tebow was cut by the New York Jets, the Beef called the office of Tebow agent Jimmy Sexton to offer a standard player contract.

Beef assistant general manager Andrew Mather said Tuesday that he doesn't expect to hear back, but he thought it was worth asking.

Tebow went unclaimed on NFL waivers Tuesday.

The Beef's quarterback, James McNear, has led the team to a 5-1 start. He's completing 70 percent of his passes and has thrown for 21 touchdowns against just two interceptions.

McNear is anything but insulted by the Beef's wooing of Tebow.

"I think Tim can learn a lot from me," McNear said.

I'd be lying if I said that last line didn't make me laugh....

It isn't hate, it is a result of being irritated by all of the Tebow fanatics who think he is the answer for the Jaguars. 
The Jets didn't keep him on the bench because they didn't like him, they kept him on the bench because he wasn't getting the job done in practice.  I guarantee you that if he looked better than Sanchez in practice, which really shouldn't have been that hard to do considering how bad Sanchez was on the field, he'd have been the starting QB for the Jets. 
As for the "All Tebow does is win" claims, Denver's schedule was a very easy schedule with none of the teams that Denver beat while he was QB having a record over .500 at the end of the season and his stats were terrible in the the final 3 games of the season which Denver lost.
Tebow, stat wise, is no better than Blaine Gabbert so why would the Jags pick up a QB with the controversy he brings and isn't any better than what they currently have as a starter?

They'd sell many thousands of really expensive shirts.

NFL teams already make a profit from the TV deal alone, they don't have to stoop so low.

That, and revenue from jersey sales other than at team official stores or stadium stores is shared equally among all 32 teams.  So anyone who bought a Tebow jersey at NFL Shop, Football Fanatics, etc. was providing as much money to the Jaguars as to the Broncos/Jets.
