Wait, I'm being informed he didn't graduate. Then he died. Yes, they definitely need to put something up in his honor. I mean, not only did he do so much for the football team, but he was such a humanitarian, such a charismatic and spiritual young man. A plaque is really the least they could do, considering what he accomplished--
Excuse me. He's still there, and will be starting this year. I stand corrected. COME ON. He hasn't even left, or died, and they're putting this speech on the wall? I bleed orange and blue, and even I think this is a bit excessive. I mean, he is the most perfect human being ever born, and I'd purchase his sweaty used compression shorts to nail over my door for good luck, but for Tebow's sake, wait until he leaves to begin memorializing him. Plaques and statues are for dead people. Even Florida State had the decorum to wait until Bobby Bowden was gone to put his statue up in front of Doak Campbell Stadium--
Oh, now you're kidding me. He's still there, too? I quit.

I think the sign could be bigger. Like, @40 ft tall. No, screw that. A frakken monolith big enough to see from space!

Everyone in Florida should get to punch him once.

I can’t wait for Tebow to get arrested on a DUI with hookers and meth/heroin combo with a dead midget in the drunk. THEN I can die a happy man. Til then, I’ll be bathing in the Haterade. This stuff only makes it worse. Can he not just go ahead and ascend to heaven already since his work here on earth is already been done? 2 rings aint enough, and the freakin Heisman? He better be able to heal people by next year or I’m gonna revoke his JEDI card.

So we’re all going to sit here and act like XZibit is not standing in that picture for some reason? Well, I just can’t do it. Why is XZibit there?? Does he have something to pimp? Is he going to pimp Tebow? Now you listen to me, X to the Z. Yes, tebow is on the stroll. But he is on the stroll for God!

Xzibit is there to go along with the quote at the top of the image, to poke fun as though Florida is pimping it’s stadium. Xzibit is there to emphasis the lack of necessity of such pimpin’, I believe it’s called metaphor… and everyone else got it ChiAdam
