Do you believe secular political and media interests have an anti-Christian and anti-Tim Tebow bias? If your a Florida state fan, you're too biased to answer.  |
I think it cuts both ways; in other words, I think he gets more attention both negatively and positively because of his overtly religious views. I personally think he is a great story and one of the best ambassadors for Christianity around. I have always beleived that the NFL is blind to the abilities of anyone who doesn't fit their narrow view of what a player should look like or be (see Flutie, Doug). Tebow is a winner, always has been, and that very intangible quality is hard for "nfl experts" to wrap their minds around. As for the "media bias" the vast majority that I have heard criticize him are former players who would not really count as media.
