In My Father's house are many mansions...

Tom Brady, after living a full life, died. When he got to heaven, God was showing him around. They came to a modest little house with a faded Patriots flag in the window. "This house is yours for eternity Tom, said God. "This is very special; not everyone gets a house up here." Tom felt special, indeed, and walked up to his house.

On his way up the porch, he noticed another house just around the corner. It was a huge 3-story mansion with Orange and Blue sidewalks and drive ways, a 50 foot tall flagpole with an enormous Broncos logo flag waving, a swimming pool in shape of a horse, a Broncos logo in every window, and a Tim Tebow jersey on the front door.

Tom looked at God and said "God, I'm not trying to be ungrateful, but I have a question. I was an all-pro QB, I won 3 Super Bowls, and I even went to the Hall of Fame."

God said "So what's your point Tom?"

"Well, why does Tim Tebow get a better house than me?"
God chuckled, and said "Tom, that's not Tim's house, it's mine."

How'd this work out????

For all those scared about Europe--let me ask you how did the above work out?

Better start buying this pullback

All the timid and fearful wimps that are warning us about Armageddon and Europe--well you better ignore them and start buying here.

This pullback is just another Wall Street con.

Better start putting in some bids.

Cuz Tuesday's coming!

Eat your spinach to make some cabbage!

Tebow Mic'd up vs Bears

Here's Tebow mic'd up during the Bears game.
http://www.nfl.com/videos/auto/09000d5d8250f44d/Sound-FX-Tim-Tebow

And check out this link--the last 4 minutes of the game.
http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-films-sound-efx/09000d5d825100af/Sound-FX-Tim-Tebow-s-comeback

Tebow was singing church hymns in warmups--off key of course.

So remember Hugh Douglas and his errant prediction--- and having to go to church after a Bronco win? Tebow during the presser said "Douglas better get out his Sunday best...and I hope he sings praise and worship too."



Hugh watched the game, where Tebow won with ESPN's with Michael A Smith. Tebow's "praise and worship" song that he was humming before the Bears game is here-- sung by Michael W Smith.

So once again, with Tebow, you have that coincidental connection that drives the critics crazy, and make his followers believe.



But the real secret to Tebow's success is hard work.


The temptation is to look at Tebow’s serene smiles in news conferences, watch him shrug shyly at questions about his abilities, listen to him talk about Jesus and think he is a man who plays football simply to spread the word of the Bible. The image is of a marginally skilled player who believes the Lord will slice holes in the defense or find a way to get a receiver open downfield.
And yet inside the Broncos’ complex, conversations about Tebow go on for half an hour without a mention of God or religion or their most famous player’s spirituality. The talk is instead about a man who is driven, who arrives early in the morning and leaves long after most of his teammates have departed. In college Tebow was famous for declarations of hard work but that seemed more about lifting weights and running sprints. Now that he is in the NFL, his diligence is in improving his throwing and studying opponents. The phrase most often attributed to him is not about God but rather, “Tell me how I can get better.”
Want a reason the Broncos are in first place in the AFC West with what amounts to a two-game lead over the Oakland Raiders? It is Tebow’s obsessive preparation.

The hour doesn’t matter. It could be 9 p.m., maybe 10, but at some point every night the phone of Broncos quarterbacks coach Adam Gase will ring and Tim Tebow will be on the line.
“I’ve been watching film,” Tebow will say. Then a string of questions: What happens if a defensive player moves a certain way? How should he go? And what about the receivers? Are there other options?
Quietly, Tebow has dazzled the Broncos coaches with his deep understanding of complex offenses. When he showed up to the team’s suite for his interview with the staff at last year’s combine, he immediately rattled off the principles of his offense at Florida. But then he launched into Norv Turner’s digit system as well as the Patriots’ offense, which the Broncos were also using. The coaches were stunned.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So if you can criticize his work ethic, criticize him, because he belives in God.
Which makes him blessed. Because Christ said this:
Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.
Matthew 5:12
So does that mean then, that the critics and haters are are being pawned by Tebow's Awesome God?

Charles Barkley "Lose like a Man"


Is that his Weight Watchers spiel or just the verdict on his proclamation that Tebow Time is over??


So now world class athletes who gain weight, will tell you it was just Weight Watchers that allowed them to lose the bulge. Do you want that bet?

Sir Charles take on Sunday's Broncos vs Patriots:

"I won't have any worries after this week," Barkley said. "No worries at all."

Five years ago, Barkley said betting in Vegas had cost him at least $10 million.

So take the under on the over/under bet on how long Barkley stays in the spotlight with his Tebow bashing!

Bear waves goodbye, while Wall Street thinks it waves hello

Cramer: No reason to own Netflix

Which means you have to own it!

Come on--the break up fee for AT&T's acquisition of T-Mobile is $3 billion and $1 billion of spectrum rights.

So why wouldn't a carrier buy Netflix just to get into streaming? Especially now that its 75% off its high.

Want 7 million to 1 odds?

The statistical odds on the Bronco 4th quarter comebacks being successful.
                             % odds
Week 7 at MIA       1.9
Week 9 at OAK     11.3
Week 10 at KC      43.0
Week 11 vs NYJ     22.3
Week 12 at SD      12.0
Week 13 at MIN     14.8
Week 14 vs CHI      3.8

Cumulatively it's over 7 million to 1.

And you wonder why Vegas is getting plastered by the Broncos.

Pats next on deck!

Trent Dilfer and Merril Hoge are now backpedaling on Tebow




Next the plate of crow gets passed to the sovereign bond bears who think that the trouble in European bond land will blow this market up!

Even though the European banks have sold $238 billion worth of credit default swaps on Greek, Irish, Italian Portuguese and Spanish bonds!

If Greece isn't a "credit event" then what would make those?

The world's central banks protect their fiat buddies--who live in the vapor world of electronic money

So for now, the crow has only become an endangered species in the NFL as so many people have had to eat it already!

Broncos Livin' on a Prater!


Where's Charles Barkley now? Who wanted Tebowmania to end??? And a 59 and 51 yard kicks by Prater??

After the game, sour grapes Urlacher said about Tebow--"He's a good running back." Hah! Better than the Bears Marion Barber!! Who now don't even have a prayer!



Tebow Time just picked up more converts!  And some Father, daughter Tebowing to some shocked Bear fans at Raemali's after the game!  Woot!! And Skip Bayless...and we have SEABISCUT!  Wait--wasn't that advertised??? Booyahh!!



 Skip Bayless 

I have never seen ANYthing quite like this.
 Skip Bayless 

Bring on Tom Brady. Next Sunday. In Denver. NFL's strongest 4th q will (Tebow) vs. NFL's most clutch 4th quarter QB for last decade (Brady).
 Skip Bayless 

For weeks I've heard nobody will want to play with Tebow. The great Jimmy Johnson just said on Fox never seen player make teammates better.
 Skip Bayless 

Tebow just overcame an easy blocked FG, DThomas dropping TD pass, 5 other drops, his own sack fumble AND TORCHED BEARS D IN 4TH QUARTER.
 Skip Bayless 

ALL ... HE ... DOES ... IS ... WIN ... FOOTBALL ... GAMES. Even THIS ONE, against the Bears D, when it appeared to be IMPOSSIBLE! Un. Real.

Tebowing


Along with stealing customer money MF Global also rehypothecated gold bars


Bloomberg
An HSBC Holdings Plc (HSBA) unit sued the MF Global Inc. brokerage trustee to establish whether he or another person is the rightful owner of gold bars worth about $850,000 and silver bars underlying contracts between the brokerage and a client.

Five gold bars and 15 silver bars underlie eight Comex contracts between the brokerage and its client Jason Fane of Ithaca, New York, the unit of London-based HSBC said in a court filing yesterday. Both parties have asserted claims to the bars, creating difficulties for HSBC, which is storing them, the bank said. HSBC asked a judge to decide who the rightful owner is.

“HSBC has received conflicting instructions regarding ownership and disposition of the property,” it said. “Accordingly, HSBC is exposed to multiple liabilities with respect to the disposition of the properties.” The unit is HSBC Bank USA National Association.
At least they left the tungsten bars to Ben!

Lady Gaga now needs to be counted as "homeless" by the BLS
