That's the thing. I don't wanna watch anything that has to do with him.  I'm sick of seeing him.  If he were a good football player I may care.  But he's not and he gets the most exposure of any player in the league. 

He gets the exposure because people like you who say they are sick of seeing him can't stop themselves from going into a thread, calling a radio show, etc...  and commenting about him whether it's good or bad. Not taking a shot at you, just giving an example of why he is so polarizing. If no one truely cared, the media wouldn't give him the exposure he gets. It's hard to hate on ESPN and other media outlets when "we" are the ones that keep feeding the monster.

Honestly this is the only place he could have gone. Timmy's a talented enough football player to play at the pro level, but as has been widely stated, nobody wants that circus.

New England is a credible organization with a coach who knowns how to handle the media and a rep for bringing players in weird circumstances. I'm sure the media will try to push the agenda for a while, but they won't have a foothold with Brady out there leading a successful team and Belichick not taking their crap.

I am in no way a The Golden Calf of Bristol hater and in fact I like him because his presence alone seems to piss so many people off which amuses me but what exactly is he good at? He is not that big, he is not fast, he can't catch, he can't throw......so what is it?

I'm not saying he is the best, but he isn't the worse. He isn't a bad player. I hav always respected him for his faith alone, and the fact he is a positive role model. But I never said he was a top 20 QB or anything. But I believe if he was asked to come off the bench and finish a game or win a game for u he could. Dont believe me? Ask Pittsburgh, ask his opponents that year.

And I think he is in a great place to learn. I wish him luck evn tho I extremely dislike NE.

looks like Tiebow got his *nth opportunity to pretend he is an athlete and a paycheck. Where do I sign up? What's the qualification? Is it an Equal Opportunity opportunity? I want a paycheck too.

He doesn't have a pay check yet. 

 

His contract is non-guaranteed, and thus [The Golden Calf of Bristol] has to make, and stay on the team. 

 

I wish him well (though I'm not expecting much).

The Golden Calf of Bristol is one of the worst "passing" QB's in the HISTORY of the NFL.

So many people want him to be this specimen of an athlete and they're forcing it onto him. But nature is not fair. For the most part, nature create it's specimen of athletes as long leg, short torso, and fast twitch muscle. The Golden Calf of Bristol is none of that. Those who don't have those attributes find their niche in other positions like OL, quarterback. Tibow can't throw for squat. Now, where does that leave him? It annoys me every time I read somewhere another opportunity opens up for him.

Just think if Beli- Belic- (coachs name I can't seem to say) is able to really use him how much fun is it going to be messing with Jets fans and thier coach.

 

The Hoodie Monster is just the type of smug arrogant asshat to try to get something out of a player that the Jets dropped.  See Danny Woodhead.  I think ol' Bill is just trying to get Rex to pop a vessel.

It makes sense on several levels.

1. NE doesn't allow media circuses

2. McDaniels drafted Teboe

3. Great staff to learn from

 

goal line or short yardage packages.......

 

he could be the 3rd string QB or 53rd man on your roster and possibly score 8-10 TD's.

 

who wouldn't love that???

 

worth a shot if you don't already have that option on your roster.

 

 

PS.............This guy will not back up Brady. They will have a real QB for that.

All true/good points (though I question the TD total). 

 

However, let's see if he makes the team first?? Lol

Seems like a favor to either McDaniel or Irving Mayer (reportedly good friends with Coach Hoodie), combined with Coach Hoodie arrogance, and proposed creativity?

 

He also doesn't have to answer questions about Gronk, the offense/no Wes Welker, and tweak the Jets while he's at it. 

 

We'll see, if he makes the team first. And how they'll use him, if he does?
