Patriots owner Kraft wants Tebow to get in the final roster. :(
 
Did Tebow kill a member of your family? You have a personal vendetta against him haha.

He did! He tried throwing it straight up field but he ****ed it up and slammed it into the crowd. Killing my obese American uncle.
 
I don't know much about NFL, but I do know no one likes Tebow.
Not strictly true. He's one of the most popular players in the league, in jersey sales, and people will follow whichever team he's on just because of him. He's the modern poster boy for Christianity, so basically every casual fan in the states who is a Christian worships him - obviously there are other Christian players, but none quite so very Christian.

However, there are a hell of a lot of vocal people who hate him. Mainly this comes down to how massively overexposed he is in the media. For the Christian things I mentioned, he has a HUGE audience so networks like ESPN play up to this by covering him to similar levels as the likes of Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers - three of the absolute best players in the world, while Tebow is frankly terrible so the media coverage is far more unwarranted. It was made worse by his 2011 season, he ended up starting for the Broncos and due to a combination of ridiculous luck and everyone else on his team being really good, he kept winning games. This led to idiots going "Clearly he's not terrible, he's a winner!" which just made everything about him unbearable.

Also I'm not sure if that post made sense because it's hard to organise thoughts when typing painfully slowly on a mobile.
