Another Tebow story

[ethurst22]

Where is the Christian principle that says you can't show any interest in women through college?

Dave, I'm surprised. Do you really think hes gay?I wouldn't put anything past anybody but if he is, he's covering it up real good. Maybe he does have a love interest somewhere and meets her at Perkins for late night "dinner".

Yes, I really think he's gay.  ...or at least that it's a distinct possibility.

I find it odd that some people seem to be very critical of Tebow, yet show understanding towards Tiger.   

[Sunstroke]

^^^ Gotta agree with that sentiment completely...

Wish there could be a "completely honest" poll that would show how many people are secretly hoping that Tebow turns out to be gay, or a psycho or a nazi or something...anything that would tear him down.

I would hope that being gay wouldn't tear him down.

I don't think he's gay.  Seth MacFarlane from "Family Guy" is gay.  I think trying to do the Christian thing is more accurate or he's got a chick on the side that's really good at keeping secrets or he's going with President Clinton's definition of sex.  If he is gay, I don't want to know about it. 

I don't think he did this for the publicity either.  Tebow seems to be pretty genuine and I'm hoping he's not Tiger-style.  Even if he isn't as good as he seems, I couldn't care less.  He'll make it to the NFL, be mediocre at best, and then probably do more good through charity work or with his NFL cash than he ever would doing anything else.  I'm also glad he didn't win the Heisman a second time, but that's just being spiteful.

You guys gotta realize, he's lived a sheltered life all his life up until the point where he went to UF.  He was home-schooled by his parents from Kindergarten all the way to 12th grade.  It says he played for Ponte Vedra Beach Nease High School because he lived in that school's district and by law, the school had to allow him to play.

Think about it, you've been living a sheltered life but happen to be a star QB, then all of a sudden you're thrust in the spotlight at a big time national contending program, you'd feel awkward too.

Being home schooled doesn't necessarily mean he was sheltered although that is the general impression I think most of us get when we hear the term.

Guys, he's a devout Christian who believs in no sex before marriage.  These people do exist; I've known some of them even here in Miami.  Granted, in my experience they get married at, like, 21 (so they can get down to business, I like to say).

I don't think he's gay (nor would I care if he were).  I think any awkwardness he displays regarding women or sexuality comes from the fact that he probably gets ribbed / bothered/ or otherwise pestered about it all the time by people who think what he does isn't normal.

[jtex316]

He's been the most hyped up bum ever for the last 4 years. Only now is he finding out that he is awkward socially?

He is either very gay, or very religious. I hope that he is gay.

You aren't understanding what I'm saying.  Just because he's not going to have sex doesn't mean that he's not allowed to have an interest in girls.

I'm curious why you think he has no interest in girls? I haven't seen Colt McCoy's girlfriend. I haven't seen a lot of football players girlfriends. There must be a lot more gayness in college football than I realized. There aren't any players interested in girls now that I think about it.

I was thinking the same.  Fast forward to Tiger or currently "Cheetah". He was getting sex everywhere for how long and we never saw him with any of these girls!! I dare say Tiger is more famous than Tebow with many more poparazzi following him.

[Dave Gray]

Tebow has publicly said

I'm curious why you think he has no interest in girls?

I've heard him speak on the subject and give an answer to the likes of "right now, I'm concentrating on football."
Plus, there are rumors of him dating a specific girl with which he has pictures, but they've been proven false.

I haven't seen Colt McCoy's girlfriend.

I have.

I'm not obsessing over this or anything.  I just find Tebow's behavior strange, and I'm betting this is why.
