Tim Tebow refuses position change:

http://espn.go.com/boston/nfl/story/_/id/9640640/tim-tebow-refused-change-positions-report?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm;_medium=twitter

That is consistent with what I heard as well regarding his time with the Pats.  They knew Gronk was hurt and AH had legal trouble so they brought in Tebow as TE/QB3 but he balked at playing TE and couldn't make the team as QB3.  He's just not good enough as only a QB to warrant a roster spot.  He's an amazing athlete and person but he lacks the release and timing a pro QB needs to make it in the NFL.

If he ever agrees to play TE or FB he has the potential to be very good and the fact he can take snaps at QB makes him even more valuable.

He could. But I would bet him it would be intercepted and run back for a touchdown!

interesting use of statistics. while all the numbers may be valid, the assumptions and conclusions can be read different ways. for example, the article uses these numbers to bolster the argument:

He's already been on the Biggest Loser so I guess that's the direction he's headed.

If the Pats and Jets didn't want him, perhaps instead he should look to the Sox and Mets?

To be fair to Tim Tebow, though ... coach DID put him in and they DID win "state."  Twice.

And if he offered me a bet that he could throw the ball over them mountains over there, I would politely decline.

Whatever anyone thinks about Tebow, I'll always remember fondly the TD that sunk the rotten, lousy Steelers in the playoffs a few years back. That was awesome.

That game shouldn't have even been in Denver.

But hey, how about them Bungles?

I hate the Steelers way more than I like the Bengals.

Besides, they actually win more games than they lose in most years recently. I old enough to know that ain't all bad.

Typical. Though more typical of Browns fans, really.

Worry about your own team. How far did the Bengals get in the playoffs that year? Or last year? :-P

Or any of the three years before that. I know what they've done.

There is a bunch of bitching by some people, but I remember the 90s. The novelty of watching a team make the playoffs hasn't gotten old for me.

One other quick question for you @iacas. Have the Steelers bought a leash for Porter yet?

No. They said some guy dressed in orange and black bought them all for some guy named "Vontaze."

I'll never understand this.  My dad is the same way - despises the Yankees and Giants way more than he likes the Dodgers.

Of course, I don't even understand caring enough about a team to worry about what happens more than about 3 seconds after any game ends.  I enjoy watching games sometimes and enjoy seeing my teams do well (which never happens) but just don't care about any of it once the games are over.

If you aren't a hater its hard to explain, but It is the hate that keeps you warm.

Not sure if that helps.

      My Swing (GolfLug)

      By GolfLug · Posted

      Tale of two swings.  Swing 1: Slightly outside takeaway (hands move outside of target line) only to allow trail elbow over collapsing at P4. Doesn't take much to overdo it for the trail elbow collapse to only further exaggerate. That's death. Swing 2: Hands stay slight in at takeaway for a much better trail elbow condition at P4. This is a hard sell from an instinct perspective. More focus on un-weighting and re-weighting of lead foot to unlock a bit more mobility of hips and torso. A major flaw that creeps up often is me swinging flat footed and becoming overly armsy-collapsy as a result. Got reminded of this the hard way during my 2nd round match for club net championship. Was cruising along 2up until I made the turn. Then lost the swing for next five holes. Andy was playing good enough to capitalize. By the time I regained my swing on 16th, it was too late. Even Andy was like "That was a gift". Obviously that stings because have played well enough lately. Should have closed him out of the game comfortably with a few holes to spare. Shoulda woulda coulda. Tough lesson. Damn. P.S. I know the swings look very similar but trust me there is a difference.
