Plus I have no problem admitting I'm wrong...unlike some folks.
I'm wrong plenty and own it when I am. There's an entire thread of horrible picks this summer at Saratoga where I was basically wrong for 6 weeks straight.

I've always had a lot of respect for your football knowledge and have told you that many times. I don't hate Tebow. All I tried pointing out was that there were other things going on in the games this year besides what Skip Bayless and the idiots at ESPN were saying. It does matter when teams are missing key players, or have a lot of injuries.

Tebow is a very good football player. I've said it multiple times in the other thread. I don't hate him at all. I do find some of his religious stuff off putting, but whatever. If I had to guess, you probably do as well. Doesn't mean I don't think he's a good football player. I just question how good he is as a QB. It's not something that can really be determined right now. I think we'll get a better idea of how good he is next year and beyond when he has more time with the offense and other teams have had a chance to see him again.

I can't stand the Steelers and dislike the Pats even more, so I'll actually be rooting for Broncos next week. If having me rooting for him doesn't get them beat....nothing will.
