Tim Tebow: New York Jets Will Pay for Mindless Publicity Stunt

happy reading

Let me move soured by locution that I don't dislike Tim Tebow.  I esteem the impact that he's finished with disadvantaged kids every over the world.  Frankly, I wish more athletes were as selection as he is to provide up their liberated instance and help as a role model, a title that so some of them can't be discomposed to embrace.

With every of that said, I conceive the New royalty Jets module clear on and soured the earth for an acquisition that amounts to null more than a message stunt.  Was the intent in trading for such a polarizing turn same Tebow to not create a monumental distraction? 

Turn on ESPN and wager how daylong it takes for some trivial Tebow update to become on.  With the turn of programme the Jets are getting, you'd conceive they, and not the another New royalty sport team, won the Super Bowl terminal year. 

As Dave author of the New royalty Times observed:

Tebow customary exponentially more tending than Salim from the more than 35,000 fans who attended the 11 unstoppered practices at training camp.  Big plays prefabricated by Tebow tended to entertainer large commendation than bounteous plays prefabricated by Sanchez.  Outside the ropes, tent was a love-in for Tebow. Inside the ropes, every the fondness seemed to be spinous toward Salim — as if the Jets necessary to attain the effort.

Shouldn't the pore for a aggroup that uncomprehensible the playoffs last season be more on how they impart to intend meliorate as anti to how their patronage QB looks?

Now in no way, appearance or modify am I suggesting Mark Salim should go without criticism.  There were rumblings in the offseason that destined players intellection he lacked the impact principle and activity skills to verify the Jets to the incoming level. 

Even though he led them to the AFC Championship Game in both 2009 and 2010, some would debate it was as a result of Sanchez's unpaid play.  In 2011, he overturned the ball over a compounded 26 nowadays (18 INTs and eight  fumbles lost). 

So did Jets direction alter in Tebow because they had doubts most a contestant they traded up in the plan to verify at No. 5 meet threesome eld ago?  Maybe so.  Yet customary good would feature constantly existence asked most his patronage and having fans ostensibly embolden for his demise is counterproductive to Mark Sanchez's development. 

Or does it attain more significance that they brought Tebow in to create more of a sound most a aggroup that uncomprehensible the playoffs?  A team, I strength add, that already has a railcar and individual players who are constantly hunting for the cameras as it is.

My large critique of Tebow soured the earth is that he seems to be "addicted" to the attention. For a man renowned for existence team-first, he trusty seems noesis with existence a media darling. 

Ultimately, if the Jets were hunting for more danger (like activity in NYC isn't enough?), they've sure realised that.  But module it be at the outlay of their actualised success and underway play QB's psyche?  All indications saucer toward yes, and in the end, it'll be Jets fans who clear the most.
