The Tim Tebow debate

Tim Ajmani The Corsair If I were to mention the name Tim Tebow, I would get mixed comments, especially being in Florida. If you’re a Gator fan, like myself, you like him and are thankful for his contributions to the University of Florida, both on and off the field. If you’re a Miami or Florida...
