The Five Tim Tebow Stories You Meet in Heaven
Haters
The haters are jealous of Tebow. They are happy that Tebow’s birth in the Philippines disqualifies him from running for president. So, if that’s you, by all means, take a look at these headlines.

Anti-Haters
The anti-haters outnumber the haters about 2:1, but nevertheless will let you know that Tebow’s level of hate is unprecedented and an outrage. They often display an infirm grasp of what the word “intangibles” means, using it to describe all manner of things, some of which are tangible.

Vaguely Religious
Looking for something that hints at Tebow’s religiosity but is not quite willing to go all the way? The vaguely religious headline that uses either biblical imagery or wordplay without explicitly “going there” is a good start.

Explicitly Religious
