What’s the Big Deal with Tim Tebow?
What’s the big deal with Tim Tebow? I’ll tell you what. He’s got it all. He’s a good guy. He has talent. And what he doesn’t have in talent he makes up for in attitude. He loves a challenge and hearing he “can’t” only inspires him more.
He’s the definition of fortitude.
Growing up, my family didn’t have much, but my brothers and sisters and I did have parents who raised us to believe we could be anything we wanted to be if we were willing to put in the work. We were raised to believe that you should treat people well, look out for the little guy, and appreciate good luck when it comes your way. By no means were you entitled to anything other than a chance. It was up to you what you did with it.
I feel like Tim Tebow was raised in the same way.
He’s fun to watch when he’s playing football because you know he’s having fun. He carries a heavy load on his shoulders, proudly sharing his Christian upbringing and being held to a different level because of it.
And he’s also smart. He’s taking advantage of opportunities now to make the most of his fame, most likely spreading much of his fortune to those in need, like those at his children’s hospital in the Philippines.
And I mean no disrespect here, but he’s also really good looking. Seriously. I feel guilty saying it because I’m probably almost twice his age (ok, maybe older). But jeez, he’s got it going on. As you can see in the shirtless photo above, taken for his Jockey spokesman role, he can also now be considered a sex symbol. I’m not the only one who thinks so, as you can see in this USA Today article.
Yep. He’s got it all.

If you notice a spike in traffic to this specific page, I’m not naming names, but it could potentially be someone whose first name starts with the letter “T” and last name starts with the letter “J.” 🙂

My husband is a FL Gator, so the Tebow obsession lives in our house. He really is a great leader & player. Oh my gosh, did I just admit it? Don’t tell my husband.

Julie…I am telling! I’m also a Gator grad. 🙂
