David I imagine this time between the end of college football and the NFL Draft is a hectic time for any top college football player. You can to keep practicing, you have to make promotional appearance, etc. And because Tim is the most recognizable college athlete in the country, he has even more on his plate. It’s going to be tough for him to please everyone.
Today, Tim Tebow is in Washington D.C. to attend National Prayer Breakfast. The National Prayer Breakfast is a tradition dating back to the 1950s and was previously called the Presidential Prayer Breakfast. It’s a yearly event sponsored by a group called the Fellowship Foundation or “The Family” that takes place in the nation’s capital and is usually attended by the President, international diplomats, faith leaders and members of congress. President Obama attended the breakfast last year and is scheduled to go Thursday as well.
It’s a pretty big event. Here is a picture from last year’s Breakfast:
I’m not sure if Tim will actually get to meet Obama, but if he does it will be his third (I think) time meeting President Obama – the first two being after the BCS Championships the Gators won.
UPDATE 2/5/2010: Here’s a picture of Tim at the Breakfast

Si, D.C., see?
I’m an atheist, but I have no problem with anyone expressing their faith. My problem is with the people that some choose to associate with. It has been said that Tim has ties to Focus on the Family. This is troubling. FOTF is nothing but a front group, for the Christian Recostructionist movement. These people are scary, and think America should be ruled by biblical law. They believe in execution by stoning, for such crimes as blasphemy, adultery, homosexuality etc. I’m not making this up. Google it.
Tim I don’t ever know if you will read this but I hope you do. You are one of my biggest heros and I look up to you. You are one of the few men in this world who serves the Lord and is famous. But right now im pretty mad at you because you changed the abortion super bowl ad. Don’t get me wrong I still respect and look up to you. You acted like a complete sissy when you didn’t go through with the abortion ad. You let others tell you what was politically correct and didn’t stand up for your own beliefs!! Thats so stupid! If you belive in something you stand up for and it and you don’t back down. God didnt create his people to be weak, we are his strong and mighty people who STAND UP for what they believe in! It says in the bible it is a sin to murder! Abortion is murdering babies in their mothers womb. It doesn’t matter if a doctor does it or if it’s legal or not, no matter what abortion is wrong.
My big question is why you changed the add? Why? Were you scared of what others think of you? Did it have to do with your chances of becoming a pro-football player? I just want to know an answer. I am not trying to be harsh or judgemental! You are still one of the coolest guys in the world!! I’m just upset that you changed the add that you believed in. You are a hero to a lot of people including me. What you do and what you believe in affects a lot of people.
Mandy, you’re forgetting one major point: CBS doesn’t even usually accept ads like this. The only reason they accepted this one is b/c it WAS watered-down & non-confrontational. The most important thing about this ad is that it included the FotF site url. On that site there’s Pro-Life crisis pregnancy information & post-abortion syndrome information, so women in either situation can get help. A lot of women in those situations have no idea that there is help to be gotten-now many of them will. That’s better than if they’d made a stronger ad that never even got accepted by CBS in the first place.
And a wonderful side-bonus of this ad that never would have happened if it hadn’t been so benign is that it exposed certain organizations & well-known individuals as NOT being ‘Pro-Choice’ as they claim, but rather being pro-abortion. Certain supposed pro-choice groups, imo, are nothing more than lobbyists for abortion profiteers to make sure that the profiteers’ market share doesn’t decrease. These groups & individuals’ pathetic behavior in this case exposed that fact to millions.
There are times when settling for what you can get IS sticking by your principles. This, imo, is one of them. Well done, Tebow family.

But one thing that annoys me is that he assumes every one is christion
