7 Days of Super Bowl Stuff -SBXLIV- Day 4 “Champions for Life”

This year it seems the Super Bowl story that’s getting the most press has nothing to do with the actual game. It’s Tim Tebow’s Pro-Life commercial, starring him and his mother, from Focus on the Family.   People have been up in arms about this commercial, and it hasn’t even aired yet!

A few days ago, when news of the commercial started hitting the web-airways, I posted about it here.

Yesterday, however, I was forwarded a link to the following video clip.  The commercial came from a group of players from the 1986 Super Bowl Champion New York Giants football team.  Players came together to stand for life, which is what Tebow is doing, yet few modern-day critics seem to remember it.  I commend all players who stand for life, whether today, or 24 years ago.  Phil Simms, the storied Giants quarterback who had a cameo in the 1986 commercial, is still involved in NFL commentating on CBS.  I’m not sure if he’s responded to the “uproar” or not, but I’d be interested in hearing what he has to say.  Whatever that may be, take some time to check out this video.  It’s a bit long, so my apologies.  (9:20).
