Gator Soapbox

Yes I am a Florida Gator fan. I grew up a little more than 1 hour from Gainesville and the Gators have always been a part of my life. I was accepted to UF but ended up going to Rollins instead.

However, while Tim Tebow was a fine enough quarterback, I am so glad he has left UF.

The hype was exhausting. The bandwagon Gator fans were driving me insane. Tim is not the first nor the last great QB to walk into the Swamp. Shane Matthews, Danny Wuerffel, Jesse Palmer, Rex Grossman--all played in the NFL. Unfortunately, Gator QBs don't have the best of luck in the NFL.

The T-Bow shirts. The hero worship. Give the kid a break and let him relax!
