    Having your picture with a girl doesn't mean it's his girlfriend. I've actually read where that girl is just a friend.

    And according to the link, San Francisco isn't a top 15 gay city. I dunno, I've been, it's only "gay" in the one district of the town. The rest just looks like a normal city.

    There is probably a lot of truth in the Vince Young Tim Tebow talk, but the truth is Vince is 6'5 weighs about 240 ish and is fast fast fast. Tebow is about 6'2 weighs about 220 and is slow slow slow.

    Tebow does not strike fear in the hearts of DCs when he takes off and runs, he would probably generate a few chuckles but no fear.

    What Tebow does have is great leadership, he is pretty smart, and he is a winner. Anyone that drafts him will do so based on those attributes and hope he develops the rest.

    Can anyone say that Timmy won't put in 13 hrs a day to figure this league out? Honestly? The kid may have nothing going into something, but best believe he'll walk away with it all. More important than skills, he has the highest amount of determination. That will take you far, not only in football but in life. Most players will wake up at 6am and workout for 2 hrs then study tape for 3, followed by a lighter workout. I'd be willing to bet that Tebow will not only wake up before the sun, but will work well into the next day if he has to.

    I saw him play a few games in high school and thought he was a FB/TE. I caught series where he was blowing through the first and second levels. Then 6 or 7 or maybe 10+ plays later he passed for a TD. Point is; he'll do what ever it takes to be productive. If he has to play out of shotgun, scramble or even punch a backer in the mouth, he'll step up and do it. I think he's FAR from the best QB in this draft, but he may be the best overall player. He's more cleaver than anything and figures things out fairly fast. His freshman year no one thought he could do what he did from the QB position, but he surprised a lot of people.

    We don't need him on the Titans, but if he's there in the 4th/5th I'd take him in a heartbeat. I use to always say that Vince needs to spread things out and play a point guard like role as a QB, well Tebow too. If the coverage is back 15 yards and only lineman are around, he'll burn you for those 15 and some. He's a tough guy, and I hope he gets a fair shot.

    Here are the problems...

    Tebow comes from a gimmicky offense. QB's that come from the college spread or a college gimmicky offense have a LOT of learning to do. Alex Smith came out of the same offense and people thought it'd help him learn to read defenses FASTER than your avg college QB. It hurt him big time and he has no throwing issues.

    Tebow's throwing motion adjust will have two positive effects...he won't fumble as much and he won't be AS vulnerable to the INT since he's not giving NFL CB's that extra second to break on the ball. But he's not a big risk because of these mechanics.

    Tebow is not like most running QB's...ala VY or a Steve Young. He's a lot slower (about avg for an NFL LB) and isn't as elusive so he's gonna take big shots trying to run the ball. He's used to running over 210lb LB's...not getting hit by 250lb LB's who are running faster than him. His style of play will get him hurt very quickly oin the NFL and you can't have that with your starting QB.

    As far as comparing him to VY...some good things and some bad. VY has mechanics issues but they aren't as bothersome because of his 6'5 height. Learning to read defenses and have good footwork were major issues. Tebow has already improved him mechanics and footwork and already has the determination VY NOW has. Again, the difference is that VY can be successful while learning. He can litterally make one read and if not there, run for the sideline and pick up 5-10yds without being touched. He can also run for first downs on 3rd down and avoid taking big shots. Tebow can't.

    VY's running ability, size/speed and arm strength and playmaking ability made him the pick he was. Tebow's game doesn't translate as well so it'll be harder for him to succeed while learning ON THE JOB. Tebow also looks to be a bit more inaccurate even when his feet, throwing motion are perfect and he's not under pressure. VY tends to be off when his footwork is poor or he's rushed. Different kind of accuracy issue.

    Because Tebow won't be able to get away with just running for big yardage when his ability to read the D breaks down, he'll have a tougher time succeeding and BECAUSE of that, he shouldn't go anywhere in the first round. He does have decent NFL size and good athleticism for his size and all the leadership intangibles you could want (leader, hard worker, football and succeeding is very important to him). A team that wants those intangibles and doesn't need him to start in the first 2 years will probably take him in rnd 2 or 3.

    For anyone that thinks Tebow "can't be gay"... have you heard this dude talk? If he's not gay, he missed his calling.

    Annnnd then... there's this:

    ^His roommate, by the way.

    And he's a virgin...

    anyone that hangs around the girl pictured above, and doesn't get in at least once with all the booze flowing around her, is 100% homo.

    Plus, he chose to go circumcise *yes, I said circumcise...kids in other countries.
