All the prelude stuff is kinda boring. But it's always fun to see who will win. Did anybody else see the "commercial" where all the guys are having their "moment" with the trophy and Tebow drives up in a golf cart? xlolx he is bizarre.

Tebow wins. Big surprisexrolleyesx

The winners in the back were hilarious, they just ignored what was going on and were taking pictures and reminiscing about the "old days" xlolx

Will be a tough cross to bear for the next two years. I felt for McFadden who has been there before, and certainly had a top notch year.

I wonder has God given up on solving all the pressing problems of the world like the rest of us, and just become the great maker of football players, and helping his favorite teams to win championships? xrolleyesxxcoolx

And we can't blame Tebow for thanking God right off the bat. I saw reference last night to a decision his mom had to make while she was carrying him inside so I looked it up:

http://www.gatorsports.com/article/20071206/NEWS/712060310

The relevant text:

"In 1985, she and her husband moved to the Philippines, where they served as Christian missionaries.

Hoping to expand their family, they prayed for 'Timmy' by name.

Just before she became pregnant, Pam fell into a coma after contracting amoebic dysentery, a bacteria transmitted through contaminated drinking water.

Her treatment required a series of strong medications. As a result of those medications, doctors told Pam the fetus had been irreversibly damaged, and they strongly advised her to have an abortion.

She refused because of her faith, she said.

Pam spent the last two months of her pregnancy on bed rest, and on her due date — Aug. 14, 1987 — she gave birth to a healthy baby boy, who she described as 'skinny, but rather long.'"

Amoebae are protozoans, not bacteria, but we can forgive that.

Did you see the commercial Friday night, that was the FCS playoff game? Too bad they had to interupt the Heisman profiles to talk about a football game...xrolleyesx

Yeah. As they say "I went to an interview and a football game broke out"

(Originally used in the context "I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out")
