Tebow or Favre you pick!

Well it has been just over two weeks since I last posted. I took some time off in hopes that my new website could get up and running. However, despite countless hours of hard work by technical staff and marketing team (aka my little brother Randy) we are still having some difficulties. That will not stop me from showering my knowledge on the world!

Today the sports stories that constantly get attention, are getting more attention. That is of course Brett Favre and Tim Tebow. On opposite ends of their professional careers, these two share one thing in common. That is over exposure. These two guys get more Sportscenter features than David Letterman has top tens. I am going to break down each of their upcoming decisions and hopefully point them in the right direction.

I have to start with Favre, Obviously he has proven his-self as a pro, but we start with him mostly because he hurt me deeply. I love feel good stories, and besides the Saints, Favre's season was one of the best feel good stories of the season. He came back again this season after failing miserably with the Jets last year. His failure was apparently due to an arm injury. This year Favre came back happy and healthy and led the Vikings to the NFC championship game. He did this by being very un-Favre-like. He threw 33 touchdowns and only 7 interceptions. Brett was surrounded by a young talented offense and supported by a monstrous defense. He didn't have to do too much, he just had to make good decisions. He did that for the most part, until last night. In the championship game last night, in field goal range on third down, the Vikings' quarterback threw back across his body. It was picked off. As the saying goes the rest is history. The Saints went on to win the game in overtime without Favre ever getting a chance to redeem himself. Now all the Favre haters who have been silent all year are piping up. I am apparently in the minority outside of Minnesota. I think Brett, if he recovers from the beating he took yesterday, should return for a 20th season. He proved that the year with the Jets was a fluke. He proved that put in the right situation, like any other quarterback including Tom Brady, that he can be a positive influence and be productive. You are absolutely delusional if you think that Tavaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels could have taken this team this far. With the chemistry that Favre has developed with these young receivers and the talented running game he has behind him, not to mention the defense, this could be a Super Bowl team. If Brett cuts out the big mistakes. So my final word, come back Brett!

Now on to college's golden boy, Tim Tebow. In the press conferences leading up to the Senior Bowl, Tim Tebow has reiterated his desire to be an NFL quarterback. The experts are saying that Tebow's slow release and long wind up are a big hindrance to that dream. Not to mention the fact that Tebow has rarely taken a snap from under center in his college career. He has said that he will play quarterback this week in the senior bowl, and not h-back, tight end, or fullback. Pat White did this same thing a year ago. White refused to move positions for the senior bowl, despite being asked to play wide receiver. White still got drafted in the second round as a quarterback, the same round he was projected to go as a receiver. I support Tebow's decision. He has the intangibles that every NFL team desires in a quarterback. He is a phenomenal leader, he has poise, and he is durable. Tebow also possesses a deceivingly strong arm. A fact that is overlooked, due to the offense the Gators ran. The draft experts think he is going to be similar to Alex Smith in NFL quality. I have to disagree. He has a better arm than Smith, and his proven himself against better talent. That doesn't mean that I think he has what it takes to sling the ball on Sundays. I know he thinks he has what it takes. And if I have learned one thing watching Mr. Tebow on Saturdays, it is to never doubt him. I have some advice for both the NFL and to Tim Tebow. First to the NFL team that drafts Tim, give him a chance to play quarterback. He can do wonderful things for your team. Just make sure that if the experience doesn't work, move him before his confidence is shot to hell. Secondly to Tim, chase your dream young man. But please what ever your mind open. If you can't modify your delivery, and you will have to survive in the NFL, move positions. You are too good an athlete, and too solid a football player to spend your career in Canada.

Thanks to everyone for the out pouring of support. It is you the reader, that keeps this small operation alive. I am really excited to see Tim and Brett in the NFL next season. Live like no one is watching and make your mark somewhere!
