Great Question: How would Media Handle Tebow if he were a Muslim?

Players who have sacked Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow have mocked his Christianity by striking his prayerful pose as a form of celebration.

Fox Sports columnist Jennifer Floyd Engel asks a salient question. What if Tim Tebow were a Muslim? Would the players who mock Tebow's faith by getting down on one knee with head bowed have the gumption to get down on all fours and place their foreheads on the ground?

Not only would there be no takers but the media backlash would be deafening? It's not only a double standard but it's cowardice masked with religious bullying.

Matthew 10:22
And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.

VIDEO: BEER SCANDAL OUTRAGE

On one hand, you have to give Qwest Field Concessions credit for mastering the art of the optical illusion. On the other hand, this is deceptive gouging that warrants a class action lawsuit if there is any truth to it. What do you get when a large beer at Qwest Field in Seattle costs $1.25 more than a small beer and the only difference between the two is the appearance of the cups they're in? The answer very well may involve attorneys. In fact, it may be relatively easy to prove how much money has been stolen from fans who purchased large beers.

How many sold x's $1.25. Simple.

Outrageous. The good news? Height is overrated.

VIDEO: BEST TRICK PLAY IN FOOTBALL EVAH!!

I guess it's poetic justice that the now official, best trick play in football ever was pulled of by a middle school team. It has a hint of the old fumble-rooski and the fake spike but it's much better. The opposing team must have thought the referee had changed into football garb in the locker room and that the QB was actually marching off a five yard penalty. I think the only reason the refs didn't blow the whistle was because they didn't know what was going on either.

PHOTO: WHAT'S WRONG WITH AMERICA TODAY

As I sat in a restaurant this past Saturday evening, I took note of a football game on one of the multiple televisions. It was University of Texas vs. UCLA. Surprisingly, UCLA was way ahead late in the game. Making the score even a bit more disheartening for UT fans was that the game was in Austin. UT trailed 27-6 with just over eleven minutes left and the camera man singled out a fan who was either far too emotionally or financially invested in the outcome.

I hope this guy is as engaged in what's going on with his country as he is in the success of a football team. In fairness to him, if he's not, he's not the only one. I just found this photo emblematic of a much larger problem of disengagement when it comes to the dire situation we're in as a nation.

VIDEO: ARMY NAVY GAME ALL ABOUT PERSPECTIVE

This is so very nice to see. Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo truly understands how to prioritize. After his team was victorious in the annual game, he was approached by a reporter to give his take. Instead of focusing on the minutia of a victory on the gridiron, he Niumatalolo decided instead to tip his hat to his country's military. He got emotional not because he won but because he wants both sides to win.

To see true character, fast forward to the 1:00 mark and watch.
