Tim buys a home in Jacksonville

[TN G8tr]

Good for Tim.

 

[URGatorBait]

Overall, not a bad looking place, although a few things seem a little odd in the design choices. But that's obviously not his doing. I mean, whoever picked this carpet out for a game room needs to be shot!

So now that the media has made it so easy to find the address.....how long before we hear a story about you stalking him? :hehehe:

jk..

As an aside like Ox said, it's a large house, but I'd hesitate to call that a "mansion". Though the term Mansion is really more about the homes stature than its technical square footage.

 

[oxrageous]

Not a mansion, and no pool. View is okay, but for a buck.4, come on...

I actually agree. A 1.4 million dollar house in Florida with no pool?

 

[WobbleGator]

Good for him.

 

[-THE DUDE-]

Happy for him. I am still holding out hope he will get a spot in the NFL.

I'd probably give up on that if i were you...it's ok that he didn't make it

You honestly believe he doesn't have a roster spot in the NFL because of his abilities? Take a look at the list of backup QB's in the NFL and try to keep a straight face.

I didn't say anything close to that...i just said you should probably give up hope of an NFL future and that's ok. He seems to be doing quite well for himself with other things at the moment.

I'm curious, with his abilities, you'd think he could have found a spot on the field somewhere. Do you guys think that he's being pushed out of the league, or do you think he only wants to be a starting QB, and isn't really willing to take on another position? I say the second part knowing that he's publicly expressed that he'd do whatever it takes for a team, but he wouldn't be the first to say one thing, and then do another.

He also has said he will not take another position other than quarterback. Which contridicts his will do anything to make a team.

I hadn't heard him publicly say that he wouldn't take another position. And perhaps his position has changed over the years. Initially he came across with the do anything attitude, though it obviously didn't turn out that way. Which is somewhat disappointing because there could have been more opportunity to provide for the good things he does do outside of football.

He would have been a great H-back, Tight End, but he has stated he wants to be a quaterback. He has also turned down contracts from the Canadian Football League and Arena league to play quarterback.

Well the arena league offer is an obvious turn down. Those guys don't get paid much at all. I agree he would have been good in other positions.

Just qb, at least to my knowledge never specified starting.

 

[oxrageous]

I don't think he wants another position, but I absolutely believe he would take a job in the NFL as a QB backup. I have never gotten the impression it's a "I start or else" mentality. Obviously he wouldn't have tried to make the New England Patriots if that was the case.

Personally I'm glad for him that's he not in the NFL getting attacked personally every time the camera pans over him. It was disgusting.

Perhaps that was part of the problem. Even when it was certain that he was the back up....the media hacks would do nothing but create hysteria about it.

 

[JC_Gator]

I think the media forced him out. Tebow had the ability to be a backup in the league, and maybe even a starter. (I bet Jacksonville would win more than 2 games and fill a lot more seats if he was). However, a lot of teams simply did not want the distraction in their locker room, not because of Tim but because of the media hysteria that followed him.

I still believe the best thing for his career is if he got drafted behind an established starter and was forced to learn for a couple of years. No one would be calling for him over Brady, Manning, and a few others. Let him learn to play the position on an NFL level.

I would tend to agree, but I have to believe that Brady is on the downhill.

Manning should be too, but he also put up really good numbers last year. I would have prefered that Denver find a way to keep Tebow, and let him fly under Mannings wing for 2-3 years. But they didn't do that, so that option is void, and likely won't occur at this point anyway.
