Quote:It's really no different than the tebow coverage. The media covers it non stop because it's polarizing. People talk about it and yell about it weather support him or don't. Weather they want to hear it or are sick of it. 

 

It's pretty close to the same thing.  The 24/7 coverage of Tim Tebow had less to do with his ability to be an NFL player, and more to do with his faith.  One glaring difference though, Tebow actually played as a starter and was never placed on a practice squad.  At least some of the coverage was about his ability/performance as an NFL player.  I did hate the whole "tebowing" thing that I'm glad didn't last.  Personal issues whether it's faith, sexual orientation or whatever else has no business being covered by sports networks.
