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.

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

Or re-enroll into college under a new name. Poor guy doesn't know when he's done. Reminds me of this guy.

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.

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

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.

Yeah. You move to Florida because your team is so bad… ;-)

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.

    • The term I hear most often is "double teeing" which means the course/club has starting times from both the #1 and #10 tee.  I have encountered this many times and we know if we are the first group off #10, we may well get to #1 and have to wait because there are groups still with tee times yet to tee of #1.  In most instances, where the course/club has a starter, he normally explains this situation.  In this case, the pro advised what you would could/would encounter making the turn to #1.  And, that is exactly what happened.  Probably would have been wise to talk to the pro after playing back 9 and ask when you could go off #1 since apparently that club does not double tee.   Regardless, the outburst towards the other group was uncalled for.  And, I don't blame the member for being upset.  As a member of a private club, you are responsible for the actions of your guest.  I have played many times as a guest in the UK and I am pretty damn sure my host was responsible for my actions while at the club.  I know at the clubs I have belonged to here in the US, that is the way it is.  As a matter of fact, the member may find himself being brought before management and facing possible suspension.  So, I don't blame him for being upset.  However, as the host, he really should have stepped up and put a stop to the OP's actions.  OP makes this statement "I now understand that standards are different on the "private course." But I'll take those lessons to the muni, too."  No, the standards are not different.  You, sir, seem to be just a bit hard headed and belligerent, even if you are college professor...which possibly explains a lot.   JMHO
    • Day 32: worked for about 10 minutes on my drill. Filmed it as well for a check in. I think it’s slightly better but still seeing some issues. 
    • Day 44 (26 Dec 25)  -  played in the Friday men’s shootout with a twist - used the Toney Penna persimmons and MacGregor blades - had a blast playing these clubs.  They really help in zoning in on making solid ball contact.  Scoring was solid - had several looks at birdie and had a few par saves.  Overall a day of focused course management. 
    • Day 2: 2025.12.27 Eighteen holes at Kauri Cliffs. Focusing on trying to keep flex in right leg during backswing.
    • Day 136 12-26 Had a different practice planned today but life happened. Worked on "wide to wide" and still working on remaining flowy. Starting the club head in front of the ball as a drill, is helping with the flow of the swing.
