I have zero problem with him monetizing his name. But I can definitely call him an annoying attention whore.

There are millions of people who respect him and would like their children to let him be their role model.....the bats and balls are just another vehicle.



I'm not saying people shouldn't respect him. I'm just surprised that there are people who want to throw down $200 for a bat signed by him, a sport he doesn't even play. It's like having a hockey stick signed by Mark Ingram or something. Then again, I'm not an autograph guy so that's probably part of it.

Do you think it's just an accident that Tebow gets an insane amount of sports coverage despite the fact that he was a complete bust in the NFL?


An accident? No I think it's something ESPN is definitely doing on purpose. He's a one of the greatest CFB Players of all-time and a very polarizing figure. So is Lebron, doesn't make either of them attention whores.

You don't think Tebow has crafted his image so that he could maximize his time on ESPN? He just happened to get insanely lucky that he was a polarizing figure and gets a ton of air time despite the fact that he sucks at what he does?

Tebow isn't that smart. He's just being himself and some people love him and some hate him.

For as much shite that gets talked about him, he sure does know how to stay somewhat relevant.

Baffles me how people can't see that this guy is nothing but a selfish, money grubbing, Kardashian sideshow...and has been his whole career.
Well I guess I fall in this category too.

If people want to pay me for my autograph on a baseball, sign me to a deal, or buy a book I had written, then I would do it too.

Unfortunately, I lack his level of talent and/or demand, but I'm not going to criticize those who have those. No time to have an inferiority complex.

If c.kap knelt toward mecca, you people would be screaming about his "right" to do so. and telling the rest of us to shut up about it.can't have it both ways...
Tebow has a pattern of charity work and helping those in need. you do realize that majoity of what he's done no one knows about? why are you attacking him for signing bats/balls?

quote:

WTH are you talking about? My only two takes on that whole shite show was that A)It was done purely for attention by him and B) Anyone granting him that attention was as big an a-hole as he is.

None of that has anything to do with Tebow's need for attention...you realize that, right?


Not sure what you're talking about-you say your take was it was done for attention, then you say it has nothing to w/ tebow's need for attenion. And i'm an a-hole b/c i posted. well, i guess that makes you an a-hole cuz you
'granted him that attention" too. Nothing like tolerance, huh? if you just wanna say you can't stand christians, cool, just don't mask it in any pseudo-courageous stand for a fool-kap-who's the definition of attention whore.
