Tim Tebow : Class Act


It’s not every day you read a story about a young athlete doing the right thing; however Tim Tebow of the Denver Broncos is the exception.

Tebow happily embraced 4 full years of college football with the Florida Gators and brought them 2 national title championships and won himself the Heisman Trophy. Most players would have not thought twice about making the jump to the NFL early if given the opportunity, but being the intelligent person that Tim Tebow is, he wanted to finish school first.

Now fighting for the #1 QB spot for the Denver Broncos, Tebow has already memorized the Broncos playbook and has looked sharp at the Denver Broncos spring camp. Tebow has an extremely strong work ethic and is intelligent which isn’t something you can say about all NFL football players.

These days in the NFL everyone and their mother (McNabbs for Chunky Soup) have an endorsement deal and you can’t stop but wonder if all these endorsements are distracting NFL football players which is a cause for concern for NFL online betting entrepreneurs such as I.

Not to worry about Tebow though as he just announced he will not be taking on any endorsement deals and wants to purely focus on his rookie NFL season. Where Lebron James accepted a $65 million contract from Nike before he ever played an NBA game, Tebow has chosen to put all that potential endorsement money on the backburner.
I’m not saying I would do the same, but kudos to you Tim Tebow, you are a class act!
