Yesterday I had the pleasure of reading an article where Denver Broncos backup qb Brady Quinn was big time hatin on Tim Tebow. He said the fans were the only reason that Tebow played in the first place, chanting his name as the losses piled up. Quinn also said the Broncos were lucky last year more than anything else....and even took a jab at the man's faith....or lack thereof. Direct quote from Quinn in reference to Tebow...
"If you look at it as a whole, there's a lot of things that just don't seem very humble to me," he said. "When I get that opportunity, I'll continue to lead not necessarily by trying to get in front of the camera and praying but by praying with my teammates, you know."
Yep...he went there.
It was refreshing to hear someone keep it real for a change, but when I finished the article I knew it was coming....the fake public apology. Quinn started backpedalling like Deion in his prime when the buzz grew....and nope...I ain't accepting no apology! You meant what you said and had every right to feel that way. Anyone would.
Let's say that you're next in line for a promotion on your job. A new, hot shot, charismatic employee comes in and blows everyone away with their personality.....not their production mind you...their personality. He has management and colleagues eating out the palm of his hands...and he (or she) knows it. You've proven that you are more accurate and refined, but when promotion time comes you're passed over for Mr. Hot Shot. You would be saltier than a gallon of ocean water....and so was Quinn. He had to have been at least a little jealous of Tebow...a little resentful. It's ok Quinn...we all go through it. Keep the apology. Keep keepin it real. Follow @plcolter
