If, in fact, he IS the chosen one and has a direct line with God, then how could this whole Urban Meyer thing occur?
This isn't very SPECIAL at all. What a fucking fraud!!!!
You'd think he might have a favor or two saved, to use on God at his choosing.
Then, perhaps, he believes Meyer to be a sinner, at which point he lets him suffer as penance.
Or, he believes this is a divine test for his coach, to challenge his faith?
Urban Meyer has been inhumanly successful with his coaching. Perhaps Tebow believes that Urban struck a deal with his Father, and the consequence of his success is failing health.
Urban is a special man, and my time with him has been a special time. His family is special. His talent is special. Perhaps not nearly as special as I, but good enough, for sure.

Tebow's pre-Wonderlic prayer request falls flat
Posted by Mike Florio on March 23, 2010 7:20 PM ET
As we've mentioned once or twice, quarterback Tim Tebow (http://www.rotoworld.com/content/playerpages/player_main.aspx?sport=NFL&id=5096)'s habit of openly expressing his religious beliefs could potentially rub folks the wrong way, especially in a locker room of grown men who choose to keep their beliefs to themselves, who don't share his beliefs at all, and/or who only want to hear "God bless" after they have sneezed.
We're told that Tebow already has gotten a taste of the resistance he might face at the next level.
At the Scouting Combine, the Wonderlic exam is administered to players in groups. The 12-minute test is preceded by some brief instructions and comments from the person administering the test.
Per a league source, after the person administering the test to Tebow's group had finished, Tebow made a request that the players bow their heads in prayer before taking the 50-question exam.
Said one of the other players in response: "Shut the f--k up." Others players in the room then laughed.
We're not passing judgment on this one; we're just passing along what we've heard. And it illustrates the type of challenges that could be faced by the team that drafts Tebow.
That said, some teams might embrace those challenges. The final decision will depend largely on the composition of the team, and the personalities of the coach, the G.M., and the owner.

He is just another "religious" person who has taken their belief to the level of extremist. The kid thinks he is an annointed one and chosen by God to do God's work. His future doesn't lie in the NFL, but rather politics. He will be the face of wack-job, far-right Republicans soon. The Tea-Baggers, Minutemen, all are nothing more than a collection of simple-mided people who believe they sit at the right hand of God. Tebow will fit right in and prosper.

So no Smithsonian for him?
