My second favorite player behind Tom Brady, Tim Tebow! In my opinion, the greatest college football player of all time. But, I like Tebow for his off field views, rather than how he played. Tebow has always been very outspoken in his Christian faith, and his Tim Tebow foundation helps children with special needs know their value in Christ, and Tim is also an activist for children who have been trafficked.

Born in the Philippines to an American missionary family, Tim worked to bring the good news of the Gospel to everyone, and says that he wants to be exhausting when he gets to Heaven because he worked so hard for the Kingdom! He’s truly a great man!

Here’s my growing Tebow card collection! Three rookies!

Thinking back to unlikely Denver Broncos playoff wins, in 2012 Tim Tebow led the 8-8 Broncos, who barely snuck into the playoffs, to a 29-23 over time win over the Steelers when, on the first play of overtime Tebow hit star receiver Demaryius Thomas (RIP) on a 80-yard sudden death touchdown.

Of course, the Broncos were subsequently squashed by no one other than the New England Patriots the following week, 45-10.

Back in 2010 I pulled this Tebow rookie auto (/25) from a Hobby box of Topps Magic. It remains the “best” pull I’ve ever had out of a pack or box, and at the time I graded it with BGS and received a mint 9.5/10. I wasn’t much of an Tebow believer even back then and sold the card for a respectable $550 at the time.

Anywho, I still think fondly back to that game, and this card, and the crazy phenomenon of an NFL QB who frankly wasn’t a very good NFL QB, and the ride we went on back then in Broncos Country.

So with a backup QB starting the AFC championship game for the Broncos, vs New England, I can only sit back and allow myself to enjoy the game yet with not very high expectations, much like I did on that fateful playoff day in 2012. That said, go Jarrett Stidham (I don’t have any of his cards lolol) and 🔷🔶GO BRONCOS🔶🔷

I got Tim Tebows new book that release this year. I heard him talk about the book on the George Janko Show, and it sounds like it’s going to be a real page turner! It’s all about seeing others value, and asking what we can do for others, rather than what others can do for us. I can’t wait to start reading!
