Mark Sanchez And The Jets Are Wearing Team Shirts That Say "We Will Persist"
The New York Jets have had a rough few days. Killed on the road in Seattle, killed by the media, and now killed—if you consider dismissing the throwing abilities of a backup quarterback who can't pass "killing"—by an anonymous member of their own defense.

MLS Couldn't Dig Itself Out Of The Snow Or Its Own Ass [UPDATE]
The weather had already shafted DC United.

Rasheed Wallace Proudly Declares Himself The New Brian Scalabrine
Rasheed Wallace never disappoints. At the end of the Knicks' emotional victory over the Heat last night, ‘Sheed was roused from a fitful nap at the end of the bench by the crowd chanting his name, and coach Mike Woodson immediately subbing him in for his first minutes as a Knick.

This Is The Lady With Whom Tim Tebow Is Not Having Sex
