We noticed something curious last night, though, when Shannon Sharpe suffered a brie...
Jets Owner Woody Johnson Now Says Tim Tebow Was "Forced" On Him
It's been a race in the Jets front office to deflect blame for Tim Tebow's signing, season-long benching, and the entire circus.

Dwight Howard Ejected On Perhaps The Flimsiest Double Technical Foul Ever
What you see there, somewhere, is Dwight Howard's second technical foul of the day—second technical foul of the first half, even—and so, the referees had to send him packing.
