Around SBN: Bracketology 2012: Duke Finally Steps Up To The No. 1 Line

Tim Tebow Has A Posse

From Jeremy Fowler's morning post;

If you think Vinny Chase rolls with an entourage, Tebow’s posse trumps the famous HBO show. You’ve got father Bob,  brother Robby, agent Sexton and at least one member from his Athletic Resource Management team, Will Bartholomew from D1 Sports Training out of Nashville, an autograph consultant from the Palm Beach area looking to seal a deal with Tebow, UF booster Bill Heavener and son Chase, who’s shooting a documentary on Tebow. Bill owns Full Sail University, an arts and entertainment school in Winter Park.

"We’re here to support Tim," Bill Heavener said.

They are not there to support. They are there to hang on the the gravy train. Two family members, two management people, a creeper autograph guy, plus a UF booster and his kid (at least Heavener bought his access). Manny Pacquiao thinks this is excessive. I could see the family and management, but everyone else is a sycophant hoping to get in the good graces of No. 15. With all the hanger ons, including one shooting a documentary, doesn't this knock down the idea of Tebow as a humble guy? How will that go over with NFL teams?

Sounds like...

He’s just being nice to the guy who is shooting the documentary, and it seems like he’s just trying to get better with his trainer, and the rest is family. of course I dont know what to say about the autograph guy…

So what?

Who cares how many peolpe are in Tebow’s posse? Unless he is paying them salaries like MC Hammer did, does it really matter?

I swear, the guy can’t take a piss without the media criticizing how he does it. They don’t like his stance, his grip, his aim, etc. (talking about his throws, not his urinating skills). it’s gotten beyond ridiculous. I am as curious as everyone about how he will fare in the NFL, but I think Senior Bowl practice is irrelevant. We already know that he can play against great college players. I also don’t care about his performance in the combine. Although an indicator of talent, we all know, as Gators, that Tebow brings something to the table that cannot be measured in drills or by a stop watch.

I’m just going to watch the draft and see where he and the other Gators end up and wish them well during training camp and the preseason and hope that they all make teams and play well. I refuse to get sucked in to a NYT reporter’s story about whether he believes Tebow has too many friends and relatives around him when he walks to practice. Does the NYT even have a sports section?

I count 6 straight Tebow articles on this site alone. This is 1 week before national signing day where the Gators may sign the best class in history. Tonight, Billy-D’s hoops team faces one of our biggest rivals in a critical conference home game where the Gators can take another step closer to returning to the real tournament. Pardon me if I could care less about who is hanging around Tebow, what McShea thinks about his footwork, what he had for breakfast, or if his throat is still sore! And we wonder why so many people hate Tebow when he’s such a good kid.

I'm glad to see that you are posting regularly

Even if it is a little too Tebow-centric in my opinion.

There were six consecutive basketball stories last week, only interrupted by Conan O’Brien playing Freebird. Tebow is the big story this week. The 6th place basketball team in the SEC is second place.
