You Can't Escape Tebow.

Unfortunately, Colt McCoy got married this weekend to Rachel Glandorf. His college roommate, Jordan Shipley, was in attendance, and he was not shy. He shared a song with the wedding guests which he wrote and performed with another musician. The song was very funny, but it was also poignant. The song entitled "When I Grow Up, I Want to Be Just Like Colt McCoy" talked about how great Colt and his friends are (focused mainly on Jordan Shipley), and how he was not expected to be good because of his size and ability. However, the best part of the song was when Shipley sang the line about "rubbing elbows with Tim Tebow." This made the whole wedding party go ballistic. This incident has brought lots of attention to how Tim Tebow always steals the spotlight from Colt. *cough cough* Twenty-Fifth overall draft pick vs. Eighty- Fifth overall draft pick. *cough cough* This unusual attention given to Colt is probably the reason he is on the top of the trending topics on yahoo.com. I am very excited to see his name on this list. Here is a link to the video of the song. http://http://www.tmz.com/2010/07/19/tim-tebow-colt-mccoy-texas-longhorns-cleveland-browns-cincinnati-bengals-jordan-shipley-rachel-glandorf-wedding-song/ I hope you enjoy and have a good night.

Can a piece of rubber change your life?

No, but it can change the way you perform in sports and other physical activities.

Power Balance bracelets have become increasingly popular in the last few months. I have had a burnt orange one for about eight months and I love it. My bother, a few of my friends, and practically everyone in my neighborhood have one. They are supposed to increase your balance, flexibility, and strength. I believe they work and everyone I know who has tried one agrees. A family friend said the first time she wore hers was in a marathon and it was her fastest time. Her husband said the pain in his elbow went away immediately when playing tennis. Many famous athletes wear them including Shaquille O' Neal, Steve Nash, Lamar Odom, and my favorite Colt McCoy. The bracelets come in tons of colors and styles; many celebrities have been wearing them. I believe they work although many people (who probably haven't tried them) think I'm crazy.
