As reporters assembled around Tim Tebow's locker on Thursday, a collection of voices could be heard in the background barking in the quarterback's direction.
New York Jets teammates were hollering, "Lolo," as in Lolo Jones, the 29-year-old Olympic hurdler who recently made headlines by declaring on Twitter that she was a virgin.
Tebow, as you may or may not be aware, has also said he is saving himself for marriage, hence the connection made by the barbarians of the locker room.
It wasn't long before Jones was alerted to what was happening at Jets facilities. She had a good sense of humor about the silliness.
Hello by Lionel Richie is now on repeat on my ipod RT @KevinGArmstrong: Tebow entered locker room today, Jets players chanted, "Lolo! Lolo!"

(Quick! Somebody update the Tim Tebow Admirer Matrix! STAT!)
For those unfamiliar with the Lionel Richie oeuvre, the signature plaintive wail in the referenced 1984 classic goes, "Hellooooooo, is it me you're looking for?"
Jones wasn't done:
Ask Tebow if he wants a glass of milk. If he says yes, ask him if he prefers chocolate. if he says no, then no more Tebow date suggestions

Inevitably, someone will ask Tebow this very question. His response could start us down the road to the creation of a genetically perfect super baby. Or not. Probably not.
