    Tim Tebow: Welcome to the Real World

    Tebow's pre-Wonderlic prayer request falls flat

    Posted by Mike Florio on March 23, 2010 7:20 PM ET


    As we've mentioned once or twice, quarterback Tim Tebow's habit of openly expressing his religious beliefs could potentially rub folks the wrong way, especially in a locker room of grown men who choose to keep their beliefs to themselves, who don't share his beliefs at all, and/or who only want to hear "God bless" after they have sneezed.

    We're told that Tebow already has gotten a taste of the resistance he might face at the next level.

    At the Scouting Combine, the Wonderlic exam is administered to players in groups. The 12-minute test is preceded by some brief instructions and comments from the person administering the test.

    Per a league source, after the person administering the test to Tebow's group had finished, Tebow made a request that the players bow their heads in prayer before taking the 50-question exam.

    Said one of the other players in response: "Shut the f--k up." Others players in the room then laughed.

    We're not passing judgment on this one; we're just passing along what we've heard. And it illustrates the type of challenges that could be faced by the team that drafts Tebow.

    That said, some teams might embrace those challenges. The final decision will depend largely on the composition of the team, and the personalities of the coach, the G.M., and the owner.

                why would you envy his "girlfriend"!?

                Would you rather be a Ferrari or drive one!?
