Sacred Band of Thebes

An army comprised of 150 pairs of homosexual lovers. The army won every battle until it was finally defeated by Philip of Macedonia and his son Alexander the Great. When Philip saw the lovers dead side by side, he wept and said, "Perish any man who suspects that these men either did or suffered any thing that was base." He then buried them with honor. Plato wrote about their code of ethics.
"If there were only some way of contriving that a state or an army should be made up of lovers and their loves, they would be the very best governors of their own city, abstaining from all dishonour, and emulating one another in honour; and when fighting at each other's side, although a mere handful, they would overcome the world. For what lover would not choose rather to be seen by all mankind than by his beloved, either when abandoning his post or throwing away his arms? He would be ready to die a thousand deaths rather than endure this. Or who would desert his beloved or fail him in the hour of danger? The veriest coward would become an inspired hero, equal to the bravest, at such a time; Love would inspire him." Plato: "Symposium"

Tebowling

John: Dude, you think we should hold her hair so she doesnt drown in the toilet?

Chris: Nah...while tebowling, she is protected because she is praying to her Lord and Savior while propping her own head. She's good.

Tebowculosis

A psychosomatic condition experienced by New England Patriots fans when they realize they have inherited the dead weight of another franchise. Symptoms include excessive expletives, browbeating and social media posting. Lapsing into unintelligible ranting in a Boston accent has also been observed. The illness is rarely fatal, but extremely painful. Although binge drinking, selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor (SSRI) drugs, and extensive psychotherapy have been suggested as largely palliative treatments, there is no cure. Prayer on one knee is frequently suggested for the comfort of the patient.
My friend from Southie came down with a wicked bad case of Tebowculosis on June 10, 2013.

Tebow Metrics

When statistics don't seem to matter or apply. The only stat that matters is the W or the L.
For those interested in statistics (again, they don’t seem to matter in Tebow Metrics), Tebow was 9-of-20 for 104 yards passing. He had 68 yards rushing on eight carries. The Broncos won the game... again.
