Tebowing

It wasn't enough that Tim Tebow(notes) dominated NFL headlines for a week with his comeback win over the Dolphins on Sunday. No, "Tebow" has to be a verb now, too.
What does it mean? To Tebow is "to get down on a knee and start praying, even if everyone else around you is doing something completely different." That's according to Tebowing.com, your new Internet home for Tebowing.

It's something that people do, like planking and owling before it, for no reason other than to take pictures of it and put those pictures on the Internet. Tebowing.com currently has seven pages full of Tebowing pictures, from the first known Tebow (not done by Tebow himself, that is) in history to Occupy Wall Street Tebowing to Grand Central Station Tebowing to jack-o-Tebowing.
The creator of Tebowing, Jared Kleinstein, was interviewed by the Wall Street Journal on Thursday. You can read the whole thing here, but hopefully, these snippets will help answer some of the questions you might have about Tebowing.
