SEC Media Days

Ahh yes, nothing like a little college football talk to get you through the dog days of summer. Although the Tour has been incredibly exciting, it still doesnt hold a straw to the excitement of the college football season. The passion, especially here in the south, is simply unreal.

This year the media throng culminated in Birmingham for the annual SEC Media Days where columnists from across the country get to drill SEC coaches and players. One of the the main attractions this year was last year's Heisman Trophy winner and all around good guy, Tim Tebow. Seriously, is there anything this guy cant do? Here is his recent schedule, taken from this article in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. In addition, he is working on a cure for cancer and solutions for the world food and energy crises, so we'll let you know when he finishes those up.
