Around SBN: Dana White: Carlos Condit Accepts Rematch With Nick Diaz

Not the number of starters and injured players we return. Not our favorable schedules. NO, the #1 thing to look forward to next year is no more Tim Tebow and hence, no more columns like this one that have no purpose other than to deify the Chosen One (who I am sure is a wonderful person). There is no "story" here, no analysis, nothing but suckling at the Tebow-teat and churning out yet more haiography of #15. Though, I have no doubt in the ability of the world-wide-leader to latch on to yet another QB and declare him the "greatest college football player EVER" after half-a-season of games.

Indeed.

It will be interesting to see who the MSM latches onto next year, actually. The guys that have dominated coverage for the last few years – Tebow, McCoy, Bradford – will all be off to the NFL, so they’ll need to shine a light on some new faces. We’ll need new puff pieces about missionary trips to the Philipines, or aw shucks stories about a quarterback rooming with his top receiver, or pointless stories about a quarterback’s golf prowess.

Matt Barkley at USC? John Brantley at Florida? Jacory Harris at Miami? Terrelle Pryor at Ohio State? (snicker) Hell, get ready for your close-up, Ricky — if you play your cards right, Shelley Smith may be doing a Gameday piece about your TWILIGHT fandom…

Greatest college football player ever

Will a single all-time record fall at his feet? He’s certainly not been as productive this year as he had been in previous years, blame whatever factor you’d like (injuries, lack of deep threat at WR, etc.). If sacrifice of one’s self off the football field is a prerequisite for such a title as “greatest college football player ever”, shouldn’t Nile Kinnick be right up there? Or some other great American who’s paid the ultimate price for something greater than himself?

My greater point: the kid is a great story in a world of great stories. Why isn’t that good enough? Curb your fanaticism and get some perspective!

Ugh

Good riddance to that piece of Biblethumping shit (no offense to any religious types on this site). I’m glad that tWWL will be removing his dick from their mouth, and getting off their knees to focus on some other player to blow. If I hear another Tebow story, I might have to hang myself.

They took the bar, the whole fucking bar!

You won't hear about Tebow for two years...

…at which point he will go on The Bachelor to lose his virginity once and for all, before becoming a face we have to see every Saturday on tWWL.

Again, how big a douche is Jesse Palmer

that he needs, as a NFL QB in NEW YORK, to go on The Bachelor just to find a woman willing to throw herself at him?

I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.

I went to the article that you linked...

… and I had to wonder about the top photo. I mean, I recognise Tebow (he’s that shining light in the heavens, right), but who was that guy in the foreground wearing the number 15 jersey? The greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing the world he doesn’t exist play for Florida.

God Tebow, I hope Florida loses to Bama.

God dammit

I refuse to read another thing that Pat Forde writes for the rest of my life.

I liked Doc Saturday's characterization
It features a pair of top Heisman contenders, with the added drama of being Tim Tebow’s final SEC game (or the penultimate gasp of the unconquerable Tebow hype machine, depending on your opinion of Florida’s sainted quarterback).

"For me the game wasn’t grounded in reality. It was about the uniform you put on that turned you into a warrior. It was about the mythology of the battle, the victory, the defeat, the struggle." - Mike Reid, PSU '69

Who wrote that?

One of the writers for ABC Family movies? It’s so sugar coated, it’s making me sick.
