Fans Ask Tebow For Anti-Bullying Clip

Helped along by gay activists, a group of Denver Broncos fans are petitioning star quarterback Tim Tebow to make an It Gets Better video.
More than 3,000 people have signed the petition started by Andy Szekeres, a Denver man who is also a political fundraiser. "The campaign is reaching people and changing lives," says Szekeres, 28. "Within the gay community and with a lot of straight allies it's making a difference and raising critical issues. "It would really be an amazing thing for Tebow and the Broncos to do to really say 'We may have differences on abortion and gay marriage, but stopping kids from killing themselves is an issue we can all get behind.'" Szekeres says Tebow is furthering his brand by staying away from gay issues and that he is unsure if the QB will oblige. "I don't know if he will sign up," Szekeres says. "A lot of my gay and lesbian friends support him and think he's doing a great job as a quarterback. This is an easy way to show support for the LGBT community that is not divisive."
I wouldn't hold my breath.
