Tebow to appear in Super Bowl commercial
Jan 16, 2:06 pm EST

Buzz up! PrintGAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP)—Tim Tebow is taking his star power to sport’s biggest stage.

The former Florida quarterback and his mother will appear in a 30-second commercial during the Super Bowl next month. The Christian group Focus on the Family says the Tebows will share a personal story centering on the theme “Celebrate Family, Celebrate Life.”

The group isn’t releasing details, but the commercial is likely to be an anti-abortion message chronicling Pam Tebow’s 1987 pregnancy. After getting sick during a mission trip to the Philippines, she ignored a recommendation by doctors to abort her fifth child and gave birth to Tim.

The 2007 Heisman Trophy winner ended his college career with several NCAA, Southeastern Conference and school records, and two national championships. Tebow also has been very involved in his family’s Christian-based ministry.

Jim Daly, president and CEO of Focus on the Family, said the commercial comes at a time when “families need to be inspired.”

“Tim and Pam share our respect for life and our passion for helping families thrive,” Daly said. “Focus on the Family is about … strengthening families by empowering them with the tools they need to live lives rooted in morals and values.”

Thirty-second commercials during the Super Bowl are selling for between $2.5 million and $2.8 million. Daly said all the funds for the ad came from a handful of “very generous and committed friends,” and that no money from the group’s general fund was used.

“Now that the ad has been shot, we’re excited to tell people it’s coming because the Tebows’ story is such an important one for our culture to hear,” he said. “You won’t want to miss it.”

Jon, when you refer to any group that doesn't dovetail with your own personal value system a "Hate" group (with the capital H), you lessen your own stance because people tend to not take you seriously. It makes you the Hugo Chavez of CS.com.

Its like decising that Obama is center right simply because he didn't turn out to be the Messiah to gays.

The only thing I dislike more than Tebow are uninformed asshats using a broad brush to use dated stereotypes and sweeping generalizations. I'm pretty sure Tebow will be playing a lot of Sundays before he ever attempts a political career. I guess Southerners are the only ones who aspire to be career politicians, huh? :ohno: SMFH :coffee:

It's good whenever these groups divert money from the war on gay rights to spend on actually protecting the rights of others.

Timmy Teabag is a colossal douche, much like Falwell, Swaggert, Bakker, Bush, and the focus fucks.

Go ahead and align yourselves with him and the other aforementioned judgmental assholes. Lets us see what you are, insecure and ignorant fart suckers.

Shut the fuck up and be a citizen to those around you, and quit trying to impose your asswipe opinions on others. Your families are suffering from your neglect of what should matter in your pitiful lives. Get a fucking life and leave others who have no effect on yours the hell alone.

That is all, suck the blue-green cheese off'n my balls, I only shower once a week because of the availability of countless ball sucking turds like you, and yes, I promise I won't tell so your cloak draped baby raper will put in a good word to your imaginary and invisible friend on your sorry behalf.

Good day! :D

THAT'S what's wrong. You make inaccurate assumptions because I take issue with people who throw the hate title at anyone they don't agree with.

I don't even own a Bible you turdburglar.

Aren't you supposed to be tolerant towards others? Even Christians?

So you admit that you do care about them.

I, on the other hand, could not care less about FoF. :coffee:

There's a difference between intolerance and poking fun at highly irrational people.

Replace Tebow with someone who constantly thanked space aliens or the flying spaghetti monster for his on- field success, and you would have no problem with the ridicule. :kisswink:

D- FoF is in good company with Jon since it's ALL hate to him.

Differing personal opinions = hate.

Lots of Christian groups oppose equal treatment for gays (primarily in the gay marriage venue) and I disagree with that, but I don't classify it as hate.

I like to save the hate tag for people who really deserve it, rather than dumbing down the word itself.
