Although I dropped it at Steve’s request, I didn’t see anything wrong with either post. We’re discussing Tim Tebow, not religion. Ok, I’ll crawl back into Leon’s “censorship” cave now. Oh, by the way, Leon. All those years of claiming you were being “censored”, you never mentioned how nice this man-cave is. You’ve even got cable in here! Pretty cool!
