gentlemen, here's the real deal regarding the NFL's treatment of Tim Tebow. i'll try to be brief.
the Powers That Be have been dreaming of aplayerlike Tim Tebow who would revolutionize the quarterback position for decades now ... only Tebow is the wrong color to be "that" quarterback. or should i say black quarterback?
how many times have we been inundated with mythological tales (these are more correctly known as lies) about some affirmative action project taking the snaps who could throw the ball 80 yards in the air from his knees AND run like a tailback AND has the type of leadership skills that willlift his teammates to new heights?
the answer, of course, is that we've heard these liesevery single time a team trots out a new black quarterback ... and we continue to hear them until it becomes so obvious that said negro is such a piss poor shadow of what a real quarterback should be that they can't convince even the DWF's that he's more than a turd-skinned facade. then they trot out the next "game changer," and begin the lies once anew.
therein lies the problem with the White Knight.
you see, Tebowactuallydoes have the athleticism, arm strength, and leadership ability that they've been craving all this time. only he isn't black. "sadly," he is very, very White. and not only in skin tone, butin character, as well. he's a great player who is also a great guy ... and he's too much like the heroes in action movies from back in the era when bigger-than-life characters were portrayed by White men.
and "they" have done everything within their power to destroy that figure in White America's consciousness.
if they allow Tebow an opportunity, then it is possible that the old powers of our people would begin to re-surface in the common man's mind. that's why all the "problems" with Tebow are repeated incessantly, when in reality the "problems"are actually just the opposite. in fact, if he were black, these "problems" we keep hearing about would actually be referred to by another term (one that is always associated with the negro afflete).
that word is upside.
you see, all Tebow's negative issues are technique related. he has sloppy footwork. he has an elongated throwing motion. his accuracy is sometimes erratic. he rarely has taken snaps from under center.
gentlemen, ALL of these issues are readily correctable and improvable if a player has a strong work ethic and good coaching from the people who are paid to improve quarterbacks' technique. they are called quarterback coaches. Tebow certainly has the work ethic, as we all know. and since his "issues" are correctable, he has tremendous potential to improve because of his upside. he has been incredibly dominant while still having huge areas of improvement that can be tapped into ...which is what we're told time and again that "talent scouts" are looking for in a player.
and that's just the thing. he has everything else the position needs, at least fromthe mental and physical aspects of the game. he has the arm. he has the speed. the strength. the toughness. the leadership skills. the desire to be THE BEST.
and that's why "they" don't want him to have a chance. because he would be what they've always wanted ... except that he'd do it while being White.
