Tim Tebow

In which we find a (good) reason to blog about Tim Tebow

By Kevin Lilley on March 21, 2012 Football, Uncategorized

Even if you’re not a football fan, or you’re forward-deployed, or you’re in a submarine under the Pacific with your fingers in your ears humming “Anchors Aweigh” as loud as you can, you’ve probably heard the news: Quarterback/attention magnet Tim Tebow has been dealt from Denver to the New York Jets (probably) to make way for another quarterback of note. Even before Peyton Manning forced his latest PCS move, Tebow couldn’t help but make headlines for some reason or another. But one of his recent endeavors didn’t get much press: a visit to a wounded warrior in Florida as part…

By Brian Everstine on February 9, 2012 Air Force, Football

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8QVLmbbxZw[/youtube] An airman from Barksdale Air Force Base, La., is the newest service member to go viral asking a celebrity out. Senior Airman Jamie Walden already has more than 14,000 views on a Youtube video asking Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow to be her date for the 2012 Military Ball in Shreveport, La. Who knows, following the success of Marine Sgt. Scott Moore asking out Mila Kunis and Cpl. Kelsey De Santis asking out Justin Timberlake, maybe the QB sensation will do it.

“Tebowing” has swept the nation since the Denver Broncos promoted former Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow to starting quarterback last month. The trend pokes fun at Tebow’s penchant for dropping to a knee in prayer, with his elbow on his knee and his fist under his bowed head. The pose has inspired a website and countless imitators, with the latest being a group of Marines on the field prior to the Broncos-Jets game last Thursday. Tebow, perhaps the most divisive figure in the NFL right now, continues to win games. And after scoring a touchdown late in the fourth quarter…

Report: 2nd Lt. Ben Garland didn't sign autographs for reporters after first preseason game

By Mike Hoffman on August 17, 2010 Air Force, Football, nfl

Air Force Academy grad Ben Garland made a strong impression in his first preseason game with the Denver Broncos Sunday night, logging five tackles while playing on the defensive line. (Yes, it’s hard to believe, but After Action can confirm that a rookie other than Tim Tebow played in a Broncos uniform Sunday night. And no we were not one of the two reporters to ask for Tebow’s autograph after the game.) Garland has still not publicly announced if he will accept his pilot slot that is waiting for him at Laughlin Air Force Base, Texas, after he completes training…

Navy quarterback honored on the floor of Congress

By on June 22, 2010 Football, Navy

In 2009, Navy quarterback Ricky Dobbs broke Tim Tebow’s record for rushing touchdowns by a quarterback in a season. In 2010, it appears Dobbs may top Tebow when it comes to gushing, over-the-top praise for a college football player. Rep. David Scott took to the floor of Congress last week to recognize Dobbs’ “extraordinary story.” In his nearly six-minute tribute to Dobbs — who is from Douglasville, Ga., part of Scott’s 13th Congressional district — Scott praises the quarterback for his academic and athletic success. Dobbs’ record-breaking 2009 season, low interception percentage, and Texas Bowl MVP are mentioned, and towards…
