      Tebow's not mocked because of his religion -- it seems like a majority of TD's carry some sort of look skyward or whatever. He's mocked because he makes a spectacle of himself. Er, Himself.

        Why? He's a freaking NBA plant. He's probably celebrating with Stern as we speak.

          I guess LeBron's flag football game is more important than the B's and the Leafs. I shouldn't be surprised, but I'm still annoyed.

                    Sadly, that gets better ratings than the NHL. I wish it was the opposite. So many areas of the US don't care about hockey.

                    I saw this as your Facebook status and it made me laugh. She seems to make a comment similar to that every show.

                          That's not true. The useless drivel talk shows are easily #1. Just at what SportsCenter has turned into.

                              NFL is like 1-8. I'm convinced that ESPN is most of the reason why the NFL network struggles the most of the 4 "sports league" networks to gain subscribers despite the sport being #1 by far nationwide in fan interest.

                              Why do I need a channel that talks all NFL all the time? I've already got one.

                                They probably want to make all the people that used to work for ESPN that now work for the NFL Network unemployed. The mothership is very vindictive like that.
