Tim Tebow has been named to
Time's 100 Most Influential People list. The description was written by
Jeremy Lin, also named to the Time 100 list.
Watching Tim Tebow play football, you can observe many things about
his character. You see his fierce competitiveness, his strong work ethic
and how he is a leader that his teammates trust and respect.
But it is the qualities that Tim, 24, embodies in his life off
the field that truly set him apart. He is unashamed of his convictions
and faith, and he lives a life that consistently reflects his values,
day in and day out. Through his foundation, he constantly reaches out to
people and communities in need of hope. He realizes what he has been
blessed with and seeks to help those who are worse off. As athletes, we
pour our hearts into winning games. Tim is a reminder that life is about
much more than that.
Lin is a point guard for the New York Knicks
