Being Tim Tebow can sometimes be cool -- like right about now, for instance.
And for two reasons: Currently, Tebow is the apple of pop music sensation Katy Perry's eye. He's also an inspiration to one of sports' best underdog stories, New York Knicks guard Jeremy Lin, who has won his first four NBA starts.
Both were topics of conversation for Tebow during a visit with 100 kids Monday at the Challengers Boys & Girls Club in south Los Angeles.
"No, me and Katy Perry don't have a thing, but she's a very good artist," Tebow said, smiling.
"It's awesome to see what he's done," Tebow said.
