Except that Hershiser is facepalming in the pose, not resting his forehead on a closed fist.

fark that Orville Redenbacher looking motherfarker. He can't play poker worth a shiat neither .

A's fan.

What's really amazing is that he called it "Tebowing" at the time.

Nobody has ever taken a knee to pause for prayer until Tim Tebow.

Mark Bavaro would like a word.

Mugato: A guy named Orel is on his knees.

Well played!

Huh. I thought he was Jewish.

Arkanaut: Huh. I thought he was Jewish.


Nah, Orel is born again.

And thus was the inspiration of the series Moral Orel.

I was watching some old King of the Hill episodes I've got yesterday, and in season 3, episode 12 ("Three Coaches and a Bobby," which, according to my sources, aired January 1999), in a flashback to his days as the elite RB at Arlen High, Hank did the Jesus pose after scoring a game-winning TD.



Upon further review, it's not quite the same. But Tebow was still only 10 or 12 at the time.

Man, another thread where we get to slam Tebow. Awesome!

It's the damn fist to the head thing that makes it such a blatant pose.

/but do we really need 10% of Sports threads to be about Tebow?
//guess it won't be an issue for a few months after this weekend

I'm from Philly, and I know the Eagles in the early 90s (with Reggie White on the team) were doing this every time a few of them scored a touchdown.

I cannot find any pictures or video if this...

But I swear it's true.

Citation needed?

NOOO! Tebow invented kneeling!

What about his siblings, Vaginal Hershiser and Anal Hershiser?

I'll let you figure out their respective genders.

I believe it's dubbed the Hersh Highway to Heaven

Did Hershiser Tebow before or after he developed his spitball?

Is it me or does that old Dodger Stadium mound look like it's a tad higher than the regulation 10 inches?

I completely forgot about that episode. That was right before the coach kissed everyone on the team as motivation.

That was a great episode.
