Christian Quarterback Tim Tebow Prepares For Unlikely Return To NFL, Storybook Dreams Work Out [VIDEO]

Before you pull all of your Tebowmania decorations down from the attic, be aware that almost 100% of the media is skeptical of a Tim Tebow comeback. But the former NFL quarterback should be commended for his relentless pursuit of his goals. The Christian QB was notable for exciting late-game comebacks, but his shortcomings on a professional field soon became insurmountable, and before the world was ready to say goodbye, Tebow was put out to pasture. That's not stopping Tebow from preparing for the unlikely possibility that he may get a second chance to see his storybook dreams work out.

Tim Tebow has been working out hard, getting in great shape, and playing "Danney Ball" (a modified version of volleyball with a 10-pound medicine ball) with his trainer Ian Danney. He hopes this gets the attention of a few NFL clubs (via NFL.com):

"'I feel great. I feel the strongest, healthiest, throwing the best I ever have. I'm just really excited about the improvement.

"'One of my favorite quotes is "I don't know what my future holds, but I know who holds my future." And in that, it gives you peace to just continue to work, go after what your heart desires and when you do that, you don't have any regrets. I think that's the best way to live life.'"

If life were a movie, Tebow is absolutely the guy you want on the field leading your team to victory (via SB Nation):

"Tim Tebow is only 26, but he has had one of the most fascinating football careers possible. He was a transcendent college player, with the rings and the Heisman to prove it. His run of thrilling late-game wins with the Denver Broncos was spectacular, the type of stuff we wouldn't believe in a Hollywood script."

The problem is, real life isn't scripted. And the loveable underdog can't be depended upon to consistently deliver results, which is another thing that real life coaches seem to find important.
