What the Hell do you mean you "don't even like football," you godless commie SOB?! Joel Send a noteboard - 22/07/2017 03:31:34 PM

I would say that was just cheap obvious plagiarism of SBNations Tebow Chronicles, but Jon Bois wrote both. I am beginning to think his real passion is cross-country transcontinental football being a fact of future life, and Tebow and space probes are just excuses to write about that.

That would kind of make sense, given that he writes for SBNation rather than, say, Omni (does Omni still exist? Answer: No, but, fittingly, the 1984 cover photo in its Wikipedia article headlines "Love, Work and Play in the 21st Century," something Omni did not live to see.) You know: The kind of site whose creators chose "SBNation" as its OFFICIAL name, because they knew anyone and everyone who ever found themselves actually looking at it would reflexively read that as "Super Bowl Nation" instead of scratching their heads and wondering wtf "SB" is supposed to mean (as the other 90% of the world would.) I feel obliged here to say, "SUCK IT, WORLD!" for reasons no one but Broncos Forum regulars would understand.

Working a citation of Philippians 4:8 into both was a nice touch; guess Bois has at least ONE other passion (in turn explaining the Tebow hook.)

Slightly better than chocolate.

Love still can't be coerced.

Proper football. Don't you work at NASA? What sort of limey spy are you, anyway? *NM* - 18/07/2017 07:11:46 PM 187 Views
