Take on Timsanity

With the announcement today that Tim Tebow will be donning Jets green next year, the city is abuzz like it hasn't been since……Linsanity..     As a Jet fan, this just smells bad to me, not only is Tebow a flawed QB but bringing him in with an under-fire incumbent QB will lead to disaster.    Sanchez couldn't keep the locker-room together and there was an uproar from the ranks to go after an established backup and there was some talk of them entering into the Peyton Manning sweepstakes.     Tebow will bring two things.. great leadership and a circus but if he's not starting, both of which will undermine the already fragile psyche of Sanchez.    As soon as Sanchez throws three balls over his receiver's heads, the fans will scream for Tebow but unlike other parts of the country, I don't see the natural cult following here in NYC

Tebow is loved because of his religion, his character and his prowess on the college gridiron, the problem is NY is not a city which is nearly as fanatical about college football or Jesus.   I get that Jeremy Lin loves Jesus too but I don't think that Linsanity was really about Jesus as much as it was about that fact that he played really well and the Knicks were winning.   If Tebow can win, NY will love him, if Tebow can't win..I just don't see the city clamoring for him..  Like Jeremy Lin, when he started to become mortal, the news cycle went to something else..  He was featured on every tabloid back-cover for three weeks straight and now he scores 19 with 10 dimes and he gets relagated to the same breath as Iman Shumpert and Landry Fields in the game recaps

Lastly.. the combination of Sexy Rexy and Tim Terrific just doesn't feel like it will work.   As my buddy the Bump said.. Rex's ego is just too big, he'll be pissed off when the reporters are all standing around Tebow's locker instead of at his press-conference.   But then again.. maybe this team needs another distraction..seems those things work out so well for them.
