There's no way in hell Tebow would get this kind of attention if he were black or another minority.

knowing all the media coverage vick got, and all the credit from espn and elsewhere that he had turned over a new leaf, i just can't agree that tebow is getting the attention now because he's white. vick isn't white, he was all over the press. but he's not currently winning, while tebow is.
espn will latch onto anything they think will garner them more ratings. tebow is a hot commodity right now.
now, some of the dipshit fans might be cheering him on for what you mentioned, but i don't think the press is.
