"Jets Worry Tim Tebow Will Be Distracted By Wild New York Churchlife"

[div class=excerpt style=background:#AFEEEE]Jets Worry Tim Tebow Will Be Distracted By Wild New York Churchlife

April 1, 2012 | ISSUE 48•14

NEW YORK—Despite an obvious display of enthusiasm for Tim Tebow's arrival at his introductory press conference Monday, the New York Jets admitted this week to concerns he may become distracted by the city's wild churchlife. "Manhattan offers worship services at all hours of the day, with some places bearing witness to the Good News till 4 a.m.—not to mention all those millions of nonbelievers walking around to convert—and a young player with a healthy thirst for Christianity could really have himself some fun here," said Jets coach Rex Ryan, adding that the sheer number of churches in New York means Tebow could tithe himself into bankruptcy if he's not careful. "In the past, he's managed to keep his God habit in check and focus on football, but in a city where a pew is never more than a minute away, we don't know if he'll be able to resist the temptation." Sources confirmed the Jets are making overtures to fellow Christian Kurt Warner to mentor Tebow, because the veteran once played in the city, and also because they do not have anybody who is good at quarterback.

The Onion.

A week or two ago they had an "article" saying that Tim Tebow and Mark Sanchez vowed to work together to throw the football.
