dave mcbride Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Chuck Norris was born on May 7th, 1945. Germany surrendered unconditionally on May 8th, 1945. Coincidence? I don't think so.. Actually, he was born on March 10, 1940. Right after the Soviets finally beat the Finns and right before the Nazis blitzkrieged through Northwest Europe.
fansince88 Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Nobody wants to deal with the circus that he and his holier than thou, cultist followers bring. Plus there's the whole thing about him being a horrible NFL quarterback. I don't blame Jackdonville one bit for not wanting any part of him. ok so his qb play isnt worth arguing I am willing to give you that sort of. But this I will ask you and anyone that makes the statement you madeabout his caracter. So many people judge his caracter with no evidence to back it up. Holier than thou...Where do you come up with this? Because he stands up for the right of the unborn? Cultic followers? What is that all about? Im not a big fan of tolerating peoples lifestyles due to political correctness but you are the reason people take this too far. The only circus here is your absolute inability to judge ones caracter.
Just in Atlanta Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Chuck Norris would be most displeased by comments from some posters here. I say "would" because no one -- living -- has ever seen Chuck Norris displeased.
truth on hold Posted May 24, 2013 Author Posted May 24, 2013 (edited) Yes. It's very bizarre to hear that single voice in the wilderness. Well, it's hard to play quarterback when you can't throw the ball well and doubly hard if you can't remember the play calls or read defenses. http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nfl--jets--release-of-tim-tebow-could-be-blessing-in-disguise-of-qb-is-willing-to-take-stock-145252244.html A week later, the Broncos played against the New England Patriots, a team that was almost comically bad on defense at the time. Instead, the Patriots made Tebow look like he needed to go back to Nease High in Jacksonville for remedial work. The Patriots played the simplest two-deep zone that you could imagine, refusing to blitz him until he broke the pocket. The result was a 9-of-26, 136-yard passing performance along with only 13 yards rushing on five carries. This was the kind of game where even an average NFL quarterback would have thrown for 300 yards, as one AFC coach said a month later. Granted, that quarterback still would have lost to the Patriots and Tom Brady, but that's not the point. This was yet another illustration that Tebow isn't ready to play conventional NFL football and he's not quick enough to play read-option all the time. Tebow can't read defenses. He can't explain the differences between two-deep, three-deep and zero coverage, much less see them. He was never trained to do that at Florida by Urban Meyer…. Blame that reality on whatever you want. It could be the fact that Tebow is dyslexic. Coaches and players who were with him in Denver say that Tebow would get to the line and immediately lose track of the play call from the huddle in the jumble of what he was told and what he saw across the line. I can play that "my experts bigger than your expert" game too. Heres one just a few weeks ago from Mike Ditka in support of Tebow.... “I think [Tebow] can play quarterback in the NFL, but whatever offense you run might have to be tweaked a bit. This kid is a talent and he proved it in college. He is an outstanding leader. Now, does he have an unusual throwing motion? Yes. But there a lot of quarterbacks that didn’t have a perfect throwing motion. Some of them turned out to be great quarterbacks because they were great leaders." http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/mike-ditka-believes-tim-tebow-nfl-quarterback-easy-141553187.html But the bottom line at the end of the day isn't about "opinions". Its about winning, something Tebow has done at every level. Edited May 24, 2013 by Joe_the_6_pack

Im not a big fan of tolerating peoples lifestyles due to political correctness but you are the reason people take this too far. The only circus here is your absolute inability to judge ones caracter. You just proved my point exactly. Anyone who dares to question Saint Tebow is automatically a bad guy and a heathen to boot. Look at what you just wrote. He isn't out of the league because he's a Christian or against abortion. He sucks. Plain and simple. But because he says Jesus in interviews constantly, kneels on the field, is apparently a decent guy, and had success in college, he's above reproach to his insane fan base. Tebow shouldn't have even gotten those starts in Denver. He was 3rd on the depth chart because he was so bad in practice. But his loony bin fans put up billboards, chanted his name, and called for Orton's head and Fox caved. And everybody should stop with the "he didn't ask for the attention" line. It's crap. There's a Tebow book, and a Tebow documentary, and sports center went all Tebow all the time. Don't forget his super bowl commercial. He eats that up. No matter who would sign him, the first incomplete pass by the starting QB and the Tebow honks will start chanting for Timmah all over again. Edited May 24, 2013 by biglukes
jimmyjack88 Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 i was hoping he would say the pats and cause a circus up in beantown.Let the hoodie deal with that. LMAO
San Jose Bills Fan Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 But the bottom line at the end of the day isn't about "opinions". Its about winning, something Tebow has done at every level. No. The bottom line is that there are 32 NFL teams and not a single one of them has any interest in signing the free agent QB. The bottom line is that the CFL team which holds his rights say that he's welcome to come in and compete for the 2nd string job. The bottom line is that only one Arena League team has any interest in him, and that's because the team knows that he would be a box office draw. That's the bottom line.
Jeebus Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 I think it speaks more that just about every team that was hinted to take him came out publicly and said Absolutely Not... Even Jacksonville
metzelaars_lives Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Chuck Norris would be most displeased by comments from some posters here. I say "would" because no one -- living -- has ever seen Chuck Norris displeased. If there are two things from 2000's pop culture I really loathe and don't get at all, it's the love for Tim Tebow and Chuck Norris jokes. This may not be the thread for me.
transient Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 As much as I like Chuck Norris, he's a football idiot. ...and a creationist. http://www.icr.org/article/3107/

Uh yeah, we know he's not currently on an NFL roster. The point of the article and this discussion is whether he should be. If you're just here to "inform" people of stuff they already know, why bother ?

You're bringing up Mike Ditka as a football "expert"? :lol: He's the same stammering idiot who traded his entire draft plus 1st and 3rd round picks in the next draft for Ricky Williams. Completely ruined the Saints for quite a number of years. Yeah, he's a real FN expert just like Meathead Matt Millen is. I really got a good chuckle when you compared Kurt Warner and Tebow in the same post. What a stretch!! Tebow plainly sucks as an NFL QB prospect and that's why he'll remain without a team as long as he insists on only playing QB in the NFL.

What is your reason for questioning his character? Do you have any evidence of anything he did that shows poor character? Or is it simply because of his religion?

When I said holier than thou I was talking about his "fans" who take it as a call to arms every time someone dare question Tebow. But since you brought it up, I don't give a crap what his religion is. I'm just sick of hearing about it as if he's the only religious person or good guy in the NFL. The Tebow zealots think that's enough for him to deserve a job in the NFL.
Chandler#81 Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Actually, he was born on March 10, 1940. Right after the Soviets finally beat the Finns and right before the Nazis blitzkrieged through Northwest Europe. I'll take your word for it, Dave. mine was just a joke I read someplace..
ChevyVanMiller Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 I think we should have a Chuck Norris Joke thread. Me, too. Chuck Norris once counted to infinity...twice.
Chandler#81 Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Me, too. Chuck Norris once counted to infinity...twice. LOL! Good one! Chuck Norris wears Tim Tebow pj's
Heels20X6 Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 LOL! Good one! Chuck Norris wears Tim Tebow pj's So does Joe_the_6_pack apparently.... TEBOW SUCKS. Any debate that begins about his relevance as an NFL QB should immediately be ended with "he sucks". That is all.
Ted William's frozen head Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Tebow sucks. Odds are good that he will continue to suck as a QB. Cool dude, but as an NFL qb, he never had it to begin with. The Bills defense had a field day against him. What else needs to be said? Tebow is a weenie who is just a wishful thinking magnet for religious nuts.. He can hold a clip board with the best of them, but he'll NEVER be an NFL starter.
