Tim Tebow, who picked apart the Alabama defense (Comeback Gators, Dec. 15), should have been the choice for the Heisman Trophy. Oklahoma's Sam Bradford has two great running backs. Tim Tebow is a great running back. He carries his team every game with his arm and his legs, and he is a leader.

I'm a high school football coach who likes to use pictures of athletes to show proper, or improper, technique. Your Dec. 15 issue had several good ones: On pages 34--35 Florida receiver David Nelson makes a perfectly formed triangle while catching a touchdown pass, and on the next page Tim Tebow shows how to hold a football high and tight. But the most instructive illustration leads off your story on Northern State basketball coach Don Meyer (The Game of His Life, Dec. 15), who lost part of his leg in a car accident and is now battling cancer. Every player and assistant is looking directly at Coach Meyer, making it obvious that people at Northern State have the utmost respect for him and the lessons that he is trying to teach.
