Tebow is a Jet

"I'm bummed that Tebow may be leaving. I think John Elway was threatened by him! That's my professional opinion," said my mom - this morning.

Not three hours later Tim Tebow, the soon to be third year professional quarterback, was traded to the New York Jets for a fourth and sixth round draft pick.

And as I sit outside to write this I somehow expect rain-clouds to meander overhead and cast down locusts or toads. Thunderbolts will strike Broncos that sits atop Sports Authority Field at Mile High Stadium. 

But no, all that is coming to Denver (besides Peyton Manning's sidetables) are lesser TBD players from the New York Jets.

The NFL is a business. It treats people as commodities because, as I learned in the several economic classes I took notes in, and they are indistinguishable from one another. But for the first time in history, this chess piece was different. Tebow wasn't confined to football, but football seemed to be confined in him.

We see him go, we wish him well. 

How can you trade the greatest quarterback in NFL history? In my professional opinion.
