John Fox's offensive indifference may have been a source of intense frustration for Panthers' fans, but it was a far more positive attribute when it came to Manning's selection of the Denver Broncos as his second-act home.
I hoped every single day that Peyton Manning would not join the Jets because I want Mark Sanchez as the starter. But all that hoping made me get a big slap in the face when Tim Tebow joined the team.
Tebowmania was certainly at full throttle in Florida, the Rocky Mountains and the Bible Belt, but the object of this football fan obsession has just hit the Great White Way in the media capital of the world.
Broncos fans have lots of reasons to be deliriously and unapologetically excited. In fact, even more exciting than the man that will be the Broncos' quarterback in 2012, is the man that won't.
Is Peyton Manning afraid of the unknown? Is he afraid of facing new defensive strategies? Are we supposed to honor him as the greatest quarterback of all-time because he chooses to play against most of the teams he has met before?
Peyton Manning hit a home run in his introductory news conference yesterday in Denver. He said it's all about hard work and winning. Period.
The Madoff trustee wanted a billion, he got $162 million instead. And nothing has to be paid for three years. So now the Mets are solvent right? They can go back to being a big league team in a big league city right? We can only hope.
In the story of the 2012 offseason, the Peyton Predicament is coming to a conclusion. Peyton Manning has agreed to join the Denver Broncos, setting in motion movement to come for Tim Tebow. Here are ten thoughts on Peyton's soft landing in Denver after his turbulent exit from Indianapolis.
Tim Tebow is a superstar masquerading as an underdog. He's been a winner at the highest level his entire life. Should we really be surprised that he's a winner in the NFL, too? Lin, however, is the ultimate underdog.
It's an election season. You need to watch this game to fully understand how jobs, religion, leadership, and health care dominate every American contest.
Tim Tebow is admirably inspired by his strong faith. But when he wears a uniform, he owes that team the respect of making his faith more private expression, less public spectacle.
No matter what you think about Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow or the public way he expresses his faith in God, what is certain is that he has helped spur discussions on what our lives are all about and where God is in all of it.
Heading into next season -- when Tebow will benefit from having his first full training camp as a starter -- we know this: Broncos fans can neither count on him to be the quarterback of the future, nor can they count him out.
God does help Tim Tebow win football games. How? Because whenever any of us open ourselves up to the presence of God, we become a better version of ourselves.
One friend called me, frantic. He believed that Tebow's evolution into this charismatic evangelical Quarterback posed a threat for Muslim Americans like his teenage son.
The glow of Tebow-mania will fade as the Broncos head into the off-season, but the quarterback's remarkable run with the team put the spotlight light on Denver's Filipino community before the season's end.
