Child, Please

I was an avid supporter of Tim Tebow and his performance as a college football player at Florida. He will go down as one of the most successful quarterbacks in the game's history, but his prospects as an NFL quarterback? Ehh, not impressed. If you want a comparison, think more Chris Leak or Troy Smith than Randall Cunningham.

I was and am not and will never be, however, very big on the side show which he commands due to his humanitarian efforts and outspoken beliefs. But his sideshow and the media's love affair with it are the only reasons I can understand this:

"On the heels of an impressive workout at Florida's pro day, league sources say that Tim Tebow is among those players who have been invited to New York for the April 22-24 NFL draft."

If anyone can tell me why Tim Tebow would be taken prior to the third round, then I'm all ears. If it has anything to do with character or leadership or intangibles, then you can spare me from your stupidity.
