In honor of the Tim Tebow Charity Golf Tournament last weekend, many of my friends who know the story in this blog have asked me to share it with you. It is a true story and if you know me you will get a chuckle, hopefully. I will say Tim was very gracious about Bobby Bowden coming to play in his charity golf tournament. If only Tim would've played for him. But that is what makes the story...What could've been.
I have been accused of many things when it comes to Tim Tebow, the likable football figure from the University of Florida. He's still on the roster for the New York Jets. Some of you may remember last year when The Jacksonville Jaguars were in a bidding war with the Jets to acquire Tim Tebow.Tim CHOSE New York over Jacksonville. *Sigh* And here we are. The new GM for the Jacksonville Jaguars was asked in a press conference about getting Tim Tebow. This is his reply:

What I've left out of the story is all the years Tim beat Florida State while playing for the Gators. And how I've had to listen to this for years on end. If you've read any part of my blogs you know, "if you are on my Team, you are on My team". My team meaning the Jaguars or the Seminoles.
Several nights ago, I went to sleep and woke up around 4 A.M. I woke up disoriented and not really knowing where I was. Like someone was chasing me! And then I start to remember.... my dream. In my dream, I had memory loss. Not sure how. Must've bumped my head or something. I have some old neighbors from the Westside visiting me. Trying to bring memories back. They're telling me something I can't comprehend. They are showing me pictures and a marriage certificate. They are telling me I'm married to Tim Tebow and I keep telling them "It's not possible. I'm a Florida State Seminole". They are telling me about a private ceremony kept hush-hush. Because he's so famous. I kept insisting "It's not possible. I'm a Seminole". Apparently, I'm a die-hard. Even in my sleep.

We MUST Protect This House
The one thing I have noticed at the stadium, Everbank Field, home to the Jacksonville Jaguars, this season is the level of fervor of the opposing teams fans. Until very recently, I believed the Philadelphia Eagles game to be the WORST game in regards to fans that I had ever been to at Everbank Field. However, I'm not sure if it was the beating or the overall demeanor of the Chicago Bears fans that put them very close to the Eagles in my book. They were rude and obnoxious. When they began to blow us away, the Bears fans became atrocious. Even division rivals Texans, Colts and Titans don't seem to attract and draw the crazed hater fans. Then, we have the game today against the Tim Tebow Jets. Oh, sorry I meant the New York Jets. It's an easy mistake to make. Especially in Jacksonville.
I was actually called a Negative B**** today by a fan who didn't seem to care who won the game. Although he was dressed in an Orange and Blue Polo T-Shirt. So...... yeah. All because I got excited because Justin Blackmon's Fumble was reversed and therefore not a fumble.
Let me explain something in case you aren't familiar with my fandom. I get excited. I scream with the "Moves those Chains" chant. I don't care what you do in "your" stadium. This is my "house" and I'll do what I do best. I'm not swearing and I'm not drunk. I will yell when it's time on defense. I'm sorry that didn't agree with him, but calling me a female dog doesn't solve anything. Please call me a hater. But don't slander me and don't come to my "house" to act any way you please and expect me to act solemn . It's simply not going to happen.
Everyone who reads this blog knows how I feel about Tebow. He's not on my team and until he is, I simply won't cheer for him like I would my own team. Whether we are winning or losing. As a side note, Tim has played into the media hype about himself. If he would've been humble and come back to Jacksonville, he'd probably be playing. He has positioned himself in a dominating situation in New York and they have him. And they have made sure to put a halt to his success and the beloved "Tebow Time". Bright lights big city syndrome.
Opposing fans seem to think that because we are 2-11, we don't have a right to be fans, act like fans, get excited about certain successful plays. You know what I think about that? I DON'T CARE. I don't care if they think we don't deserve respect. I don't care if we get the 1st pick of the 1 st round. We have problems of gargantuan proportions. But I am not going to sit in my seat and act like I don't care about the effort given on the field. Those guys deserve my respect and I will give it to them by supporting them and letting them know I am still in my seat. And if opposing fans don't like it, they can get out of MY house.

You are NOT on my team.. My Letter to Tim Tebow
This is the last of what I have to say about Tebow.
This is my letter to Tebow:
Dear Sir,
I realize that you won how many National Championships? That you annihilated Florida State on a yearly basis for how many years? That your humble pie attitude is just a ruse. You got how far into the playoffs last season? And you turned down coming to my team, The Jacksonville Jaguars, to go to the New York Jets. This is the most unforgivable sin. My team wasn't good enough for you. You had to go to a team with a franchise quarterback. Coincidentally, that you will never surpass even though he is dismal. What about that filthy mouthed Rex Ryan? You will spend the majority of your time praying for him instead of practicing. (practice? in my best Allen Iverson voice)
You really think you are big time now, don't you? You have now missed an opportunity to be on my team. With any luck you will never be on my team. I am washing my hands of you and all the good you could have done for Jacksonville and it's fans. I only hope you take all those fair weather and disciple-like following you have to New York.
And don't think I have forgotten about that Nease High School thing. You never went to school there. You only played football there. It's noble of your mom to home school you, but rent an apartment across town from where you really live and let you play at Nease? Seriously, is that doing things the right way? I doubt it. All for the greater good. Thanks for making your hometown look and feel like a bunch of idiots. Hopefully, the Times-Union will stop giving you "all that hometown press" you are used to having. Hopefully, everyone has had a snoot full of you. I have. And you are not even on my team.
