Tomorrow night, all eyes will be glued to the TV screen for the BCS Championship Bowl Game between Florida and Oklahoma. I think this has the promise of being a great game, although this kind of game in the context of a playoff would be so much better, don't you think? Perhaps then Utah would actually have a shot at being National Champion.
Anyway, in the midst of all the hoopla and media frenzy surrounding this game, stands one incredible player named Tim Tebow of Florida. I'm not a Florida fan - I really don't like their head coach (or Oklahoma's, actually, I think they're both pompous) - but the stories that have come out regarding Florida's quarterback are astounding.
The best article I've read about it comes from ESPN's Pat Forde, who talks about all the things Tebow does outside of football because he is not only a man of football, he's a man of God.
Who knows if this Heisman quarterback (who almost repeated this year) will make it to the NFL - but we do know that he will continue doing amazing things because of his faith.

Great article.
It's sad that people are so cynical when they see the real deal but it's understandable with all the ugliness and greed that we see in all sports.
i hear barack obama wants to (among other things) get rid of the BCS and finally have a playoff system for college football. my thought is maybe since i am not working i could help him out because i am all for that and after all obama has a lot of irons in the fire if you know what i mean.
Sounds good, Jen - if you need a reference, let me know. I remember you were quite the diehard college football fan!
Hey, are you the Adam Young from Bible Bowl? If so, I need to ask you a question. Please email me at keithcsmith@cfl.rr.com Thanks.
