You are hearing all the reasons why it won't work from the sport scribes and broadcasters. At the same time, you can surely detect the gasps of anticipation from the faith-based institutions and believers. And if the Highest Power in the Universe knows anything about football, He'd agree with all of us. But wait, how could He be so duplicitous, you ask???:
Tebow with the Jets will surely disrupt that already tenuous lockerroom; he will be a great teammate; the Jets won't win the Super Bowl; ... and this fine young man will not have an hour to himself, what with the many Christians in the greatest city in the world (and most worldly by the way) wanting him to visit every enclave that looks like a church, from the Upper East Side of NYC to the heart of the Central Ward in Newark.
So how could The Higher Power support such a conflagration of confusion? Because as Tim Tebow has said before, God could care less about who wins what football game. On the other hand, THE MOST CREATIVE FORCE IN THE UNIVERSE has set up an economy and design of living that if followed, will achieve results far superior than what the performer himself may be hoping for.
Tim Tebow is not the greatest quarterback in the world, but he may be the greatest football player to play the position of quarterback. Thus, he will continue to live life to the fullest, not have faith in God-but rather have the FAITH OF GOD; he will compete for the starting job against a good kid (Sanchez), ... and the glittering Big Apple will see a wonderful example of how life and competing should be done. (Yep, Tim Tebow's life mirrors each of the ...11 Secrets of Arimathea.)
For those who may be worried about Tebow and his followers throwing a net over you to get you to go to their church, relax. Tebow's job is to live his life and work and perform as he has been instructed. If you want to take a cue or two from him, ... great. It's not his job to convince you on a Higher Power--it's his job to help his team win games. In the end, on the other hand, more of us will follow his example than the Jets will win games. But, as said above, WHAT DID WE EXPECT, GOD CAN CARE LESS ABOUT WHO WINS WHAT FOOTBALL GAME.
Welcome to New York, Tim. It will be exciting seeing this SUPERNATURAL plan unfold. There are a few of us who know your stay here is not about football, but more important things.
