In the coming weeks and months, no college player will have his draft prospects scrutinised than Tim Tebow. Put all the hype and endless list of achievements aside for a moment. And before I begin, could I just remind everyone that I believe Tim Tebow is a great guy and a dominant college player. However, I can't see him as an NFL franchise quarter back in the mold of Rivers, Brees or Palmer. He definitely (and this is no criticism) isn't in the Tom Brady/Peyton Manning/Brett Favrecategory. Look at his statistics. In most games, he has a good spread of running and passing yardage and touchdowns. On the outside, this is great: a dual threat quarterback who can pass AND run to keep the defence guessing. Yet this does not bode well for his NFL career.

Quarterbacks running is a good thing in college: for the most part it is an easier and more efficient way to move the ball with little chance of a turnover. This is the same in high school football. Defences at these lower levels aren't as strong, the linebackers and linemen aren't as big and not nearly as clever at reading the play as NFL players. If Tebow does get drafted high (which, given his impressive stats is basically guaranteed) the franchise that decides to take him will have a conundrum on their hands. Scrambling quarterbacks, in the rough and tumble world of the NFL don't last long. Yes, Ben Roethilsbergeroccasionally scrambles but this is out of desperation or to give time to throw downfield. And his recent concussion shows how dangerous this can be. As a franchise quarterback, you need a good arm, agility in the pocket, a good eye for openreceivers and a cool head. Scrambling does notnecessarily make you a better QB. Tim Tebow undoubtedly possesses these characteristics of a franchise QB, but his scrambling will ensure that he will have a short career which may be blighted by injury and inconsistency.. Today Allen Iverson announced his retirement from the NBA after 14 terrific seasons. Throughout his career, the generously-listed 6’0” guard has electrified crowds with his unique combination of speed, quickness, scoring ability, and feel for the big moment. He led the league in scoring four times, in steals three times, won Rookie of the Year in 1996-97, and the MVP award in 2000-01.In addition, he was a 10-time all-star, winning two all-star MVPs, and carried his teams to the playoffs nine times.Today’s announcement was a step, and maybe not the final step, in what has been a strange saga, beginning last season when Iverson was traded from Denver to Detroit. S ome were puzzled that Detroit would part with Chauncey Billups, who was the leader on a championship team and a Pistons squad that had reached the Eastern Conference finals in six consecutive seasons. On the other side, many were surprised that the Nuggets would trade away a scorer of Iverson’s caliber so early in the season.The deal worked out much better for Denver, who thrived under Billups’ leadership and made it to the Western Conference finals before falling to the Lakers. Detroit decided to bring Iverson off the bench, favoring a starting backcourt of Richard Hamilton and second-year man Rodney Stuckey, and idea which A.I was no fan of. Just the season before, Iverson had averaged 26.4 points and per game, good for third in the league, and he felt that as an elite veteran player he had earned the right to start over a young player like Stuckey.
Making this situation worse was the fact that the entire team slipped and Iverson was unable to showcase his best talents in what was a contract year.Those problems continued this season and even became worse. Iverson signed with Memphis after being overlooked by the rest of the league. Coach Lionel Hollins, however, had other plans, starting Mike Conley over Iverson. A.I.’s one sticking point has always been that he is a starter and will not accept coming off the bench. The Grizzlies didn’t address this issue and decided to go with it anyway, disregarding the fact that Iverson is a far superior player to Conley This didn’t sit well with A.I. and he left the team after just three games, never to return.Over the past week, it was speculated that Iverson may sign with everyone from the Knicks or Bobcats to the Heat or Celtics, but nothing ever materialized.
