Brady Or Tebow? Who Would You Rather Be?
BOSTON (CBS) - The Denver Post has an interesting poll on their site, asking readers "Whose life would you rather live: Patriots quarterback Tom Brady's or Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow's?"
While Brady has already accomplished more than most NFL quarterbacks will ever dream of with a trio of Super Bowl trophies and a pair of NFL MVP awards, it seems like Tebow has the world in the palm of his hand.
But whose life would you want to have? Brady with his big contract and supermodel wife, or the rising star Tebow, who won two National Championships and a Heisman trophy during his time at Florida?
Brady has the contract stability and one of the best coaches in the game, while Tebow's future in Denver seems to be a week-to-week discussion depending on his performance.
But his media coverage is second to none, and Tebow is becoming more of a household name by the week. He moves the meter whenever he talks and it's a hard thing to say, but right now, Tebow may be a bigger deal than Brady.

As everybody waits on his words, Tebow had some kind things to say about Brady on Tuesday.
"Number one, he's one of the best when it comes to championships. He's won three championships and played great in them and he played great in a fourth one. Ultimately, as a quarterback, that's what you want to accomplish," said Tebow. "It's how he handles himself. The emotion he plays with. The calmness he plays with. His accuracy, his leadership. As a young quarterback he's someone I can learn from. He's one of the best in the business. He'll go down as one of the (all-time) best. My hat is off to him. He's a great QB and has been his whole career."

So who would you rather hang out with? We posed that question to fans at Gillette Stadium on Wednesday.
"I'd have to say Brady," said one 30-something woman, "because I don't think Tebow goes out much." Her friend added, " Tebow is a cute guy and kind-hearted, but I don't think he has fun...in the traditional sense."
Now it's time for you to decide. Whose life would you rather live: Brady or Tebows?
