Tebow gets well wishes from President
The congratulatory letters, calls, and text messages keep coming for Tim Tebow after last Saturday's historic Heisman win.
Among them is President George W. Bush, who sent Tebow a hand-written letter.
It read:
Dear Tim,
Congratulations on winning the Heisman Trophy. More importantly, I appreciate your priorities as stated in your speech! Faith, family, academics and sport. If your mission was to allow the Almighty to shine brightly, it worked. I appreciate the love and pride that your parents obviously felt last night.
Please give them my best.
Sincerely,
George Bush
Tebow said he was honored by the letter.
“That was cool,’’ Tebow said. “He wrote me a really nice letter thanking me for having my priorities right and putting God first.’’
Tebow also received a text-message from his good friend and country music star Kenny Chesney.
