Tim Tebow teased with chants of ‘Lolo!’ in Jets locker room
Tim Tebow and American hurdling star Lolo Jones share two things in common: They're saving their virginity until marriage and they get made fun of incessantly for that decision.
Jones, the 29-year-old world indoor champion and Olympic medal hopeful, recently told HBO's "Real Sports" that she was still a virgin. Once that interview aired, she drew immediate comparisons to America's most famous sexual holdout, Timothy Richard Tebow. That similarity wasn't lost on Tebow's New York Jets teammates.
According to Kevin Armstrong of the New York Daily News, Tebow was serenaded with chants of "Lolo! Lolo!" when he entered the locker room following Thursday's OTAs and it wasn't because he's good at hurdling and sort of looks like Rashida Jones.
Those chants don't seem right to me. If Tebow gets "Lolo!" chants, it's only fair that Antonio Cromartie enter to the calls of "Duggar!"
Jones told Mary Carillo that keeping her virginity is harder than training for the Olympics. Sometimes, men will try to entice her into the bedroom by claiming sex makes you run faster. As I wrote on a Fourth-Place Medal post earlier this week, that'd certainly explain Cromartie's speediness.

Tim Tebow allegedly asked Broadway actress to remove scantily clad Twitter photo
An actress in the Broadway production of "Rock of Ages" said she was asked to remove a Twitter photo that featured Tim Tebow posing with scantily clad performers.
Neka Zhang (left) and some castmates posed for a group photo with the New York Jets quarterback backstage at a recent performance. She told TMZ that she posted the picture above to Twitter but didn't leave it up for long.
"Well, Due to Tebow's 'image' I was asked to remove the pic of him with us half dressed ladies," she tweeted. "He does know we arn't [sic] real strippers right?"
[Related: 'Tebowing' to be included in Madden NFL 13 video game ]Both the picture and the subsequent tweet were removed by Monday morning.
It seems strange Tebow would object to a photo of him with women wearing bikinis. And a quick search reveals at least seven such pictures on the Internet and all of them feature younger, less-dressed women and no older Carmen Mirenda look-alike. Not only that, but Tebow goes around shirtless like he's in a Matthew McConaughey movie. Judge not, that ye be not judged, right?
