Chuck Norris has penned an ode to embattled quarterback Tim Tebow.
In the 1,500-word missive, the actor writes that “America has the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championships) and the UCP (Ultimate Clutch Players) One is mixed martial artists, and the other is quarterbacks of the NFL. They all are athletic warriors who are extremely determined to win.”
He then goes on to praise Tebow, who was recently cut by the Jets and is seeking employment.
“My favorite in the UFC is Georges St. Pierre. My favorite UCP in the NFL is Tim Tebow,” Norris notes. “I have been following Tim since he became a quarterback for the Florida Gators, and I have never seen a more determined and inspiring athlete play the game of football. And I’m not alone in that sports assessment.”
Despite pleas from Jacksonville fans NOT to sign the former Heisman winner, Norris then concludes that the Jaguars make the most sense for the controversial star.
“Why? To put it simply, because Tim could help turn the mediocre team into a championship one. Tebow works miracles on the field, and his inclusion would embolden the spirit of the Jaguars among the team and fans…
… Tim Tebow is a winner – plain and simple!”
And Norris should know. This is a man who can complete a 500-piece puzzle with just 300 pieces. We also heard he once strangled a guy with his own beard.
