Yes, Tim Tebow’s caught plenty of flack for crying after this past week’s game his “teardrops heard ’round the world”. Although ESPN and the media have way overblown the TT hype, the reality is the man isn’t just hype; he’s the real deal.

I read this fantastic quote today (thank you Facebook!), one that resonated with me. After this incident, I have even more respect for Teebs for not being afraid to let it all hang out, even with millions of eyes watching.

“I don’t know if you have ever been as passionate about something to the point where failure brings you to tears, but it is a feeling I hope you are able to experience one day, even if it isn’t in front of the nation.”
