No...he mentioned it. It just so happened that when he did it didn't sound "strange" to anyone, because most were on board with what he was saying. It was well known the guy had a crucifix sewn into his game socks, etc.

He wasn't Tebowesque in his religion, but to suggest it wasn't obvious is being disingenuous.

His religiosity only became a problem when he switched teams.

That's not the problem to me. It's his refusal to stand for the national anthem. Now, he says he was wrong. At least he didn't Kanye it and say he has no regrets. But to me, it shouldn't have been done in the first place.
