Here’s an interesting article on Sportsline. The mixing of politics, religion, and football:

Left? Right? No, just wrong to mix politics, football

Notre Dame football coach Brian Kelly has an “eyebrow-raising” pro-choice background for someone who has become the public face of such a famously Catholic school. I got that news from an influential Christian news magazine. And I’m offended.

Meanwhile, next month’s telecast of the Super Bowl on CBS will unveil a 30-second pro-life commercial featuring Florida quarterback Tim Tebow that will recall how his mother was ill during that pregnancy but ignored a doctor’s recommendation to have an abortion. I got that news right here at cbssports.com. And I’m offended.
……
Apparently the commercial has a beautiful, undeniable message. Tebow’s mother suffered a life-threatening infection during that pregnancy, and doctors advised her to abort the baby. She didn’t. She named him Tim. Just typing this paragraph gives me goose bumps. The commercial might just make me cry.

Still, I don’t want to see. Not during the damn Super Bowl. And I’m not complaining about the ad because it’s anti-abortion and I’m not. I’m complaining about the ad because it’s pro-politics. And I’m not. Not on Super Sunday

I didn’t know that about Tebow.
