Tebow could go into politics

Tim Tebow may one day step off the football field and into politics. During an interview last night, the Denver Broncos quarterback said..

"It could be something in my future.. if it's something I care about, possibly... Ultimately I know that my goal and my platform through the game of football isn’t just to score touchdowns and win games. You know, it’s about being a great role model and setting an example for the next generation. My ultimate goal is to be an athlete that some mom or dad can look at their son and daughter and say, ‘That’s someone who’s trying to do it the right way, that’s someone who’s trying to live with character." 

Here are some video excerpts from the interview.
