Not to change the subject but have you all heard about the Tebow ad that will run during the Superbowl????
Tebow, the 2007 Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback at the University of Florida, will appear with his mother, Pam, in a commercial for Focus on the Family, a Christian non-profit advocacy group based in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
“They will share a personal story centered on the theme of ‘Celebrate Family, Celebrate Life,’†Jim Daly, the group’s president, said in a statement.
The ad is expected to recount the story of Pam Tebow’s pregnancy in 1987, the Associated Press reported. While on a mission to the Philippines, she rejected her doctors’ advice to abort her fifth child and gave birth to Tim, AP reported.
The Bob Tebow Evangelistic Association, founded by the athlete’s father in Jacksonville, Florida, couldn’t be reached for comment. Gary Schneeberger, a spokesman for Focus on the Family, didn’t respond to a voice-mail seeking comment.
The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation criticized CBS for accepting the Tebow commercial while refusing to air a gay-oriented advertisement. Focus on the Family encourages gay men and women to abandon same-sex lifestyles.
CBS, controlled by Chairman Sumner Redstone, has accepted commercials from advocacy groups since the network last aired the Super Bowl in 2007, the network said.
“Our standards and practices process continues to adhere to a process that ensures all ads — on all sides of an issue — are appropriate,†CBS said in a statement last week.
You’re a union attorney? Watch out, DIBS is going to try to even the odds on this smackdown. But that is one tricked out McLaren on Nostrand. Toddlers from Bushwick to Ditmas steer clear of that turf.
i have to say, what m4l is saying is kinda true, know that i live in Brooklyn i know it, that its better to be geographically farther in because as long as you’re near good trains, it doesn’t matter, and you can get, well, more for less. that’s why all i can do now is respond with threats of violence.

I’m sure a Chinese immigrant has a much better work ethic than a union attorney. No sense of entitlement either. 🙂
DIBS, this chinaman ate field mouse, dragon flies, snakes, etc. blowfish would just be another notch on the exotic items consumed
