The mistake they made was almost immediately playing the race angle, insinuating that it was Tim’s whiteness that got him the look. Now, it seems pretty obvious that any time you hear criticism, particularly from someone black, that’s the root issue. It had no place in this discussion, and once again, just waters down their whole point.
It's hard to imagine anything really that some folks won't try to explain with racism or global warming/cooling/change... or both.

”You know how many players are removed from the NFL in one, two, three years that could still play and not 34 years old, 33 years old, that can’t get a workout, can’t get a sniff because people just assume they don’t want to deal with them, for whatever reason?
I wonder if he’s insinuating Kapernick here? That trick @ss fake POC couldn’t play when he could play, but I digress. What Keyshawn isn’t telling us is that a lot of those guys out of the league who could still play likely have some baggage that makes them untenable. Tim may not last any longer than the season ticket sales push, but so what? If just having him, a hometown son, on the roster generates some positive excitement, then that’s a step in the right direction for the franchise and the league that is losing fans faster than Biden runs through a stack of EO’s. I haven’t watched the NFL other than the Super Bowl this year in quite some time. I’ll be inclined to tune in to the Jags this season. My guess is that so will some others who just like to see a Gator dressed out on Sunday or maybe even who felt like the league might have previously disenfranchised them. I’m ready for a sports story that doesn’t involve BLM, wokeness, or Cardi B.

All those criticizing Tebow getting an opportunity now never discuss him not getting a real opportunity previously. I hope he makes it.

The problem now might be that Tebow brings turmoil & disruption to the Jaguars - again not of his doing. At some point BLM and other race-baiting organizations (that includes Biden & the Democrat Party & the Hollywoodites) will avalanche to smother Tim. Most likely the Jags will simply have him fall short of making the team. I see this as being a big displeasure for Tim.

I just can’t get over the amount of grown men whining about this situation and saying how it “isn’t fair”. For starters, it’s a competition league. If he isn’t good enough to play, I assure you he won’t. And that failure will make their point and they can gloat about it. But secondly, hearing adults stomp their feet and use phrases that children often do when their parents give them reality, is completely embarrassing. Is he benefiting from connections and his resume with Meyer, of course. And it’s helping him get a seat at the table. Guess what. That’s life. How many great students weren’t accepted into USC and had to settle for a lesser degree because Johnson took their spot due to his ability? How many better TV people didn’t get his spot because of his football past? Life isn’t perfect and it’s never going to be. Stop acting like you’re nine years old.

He's been pissed off ever since he was the first star voted off season 17 of DWTS. Imaging the embarrassment of being a 30 something black professional finesse athlete, and viewed as the worst dancer in the group, being beaten out by such fleet footed hoofers as Bill Nye the Science Guy, 80 y/o Rhoda (Valerie Harper), and infamous Jersey Shore Cockstump, Snooki.

I heard he and Bill Nye tagged teamed her several times allowing Nye to finally prove his theorem that says the heat of the meat is directly proportional to the angle of the dangle if the mass of the ass is held constant.
You know Bill Nye is a political science guy, right?

Just like 99% of all other job interviews and hirings, people are much more comfortable hiring a known vs an unknown. Its all about the relationships you build in life.

I just had an audible guffaw.
