Like with the article I wrote about yesterday, which claimed that New York Jets starting quarterback Mark Sanchez wasn't going to second-guess head coach Rex Ryan's ridiculous decision to put him in behind an inexperienced offensive line in the 4th quarter of the team's third preseason game, I'm again asking "why?" with regard to an ESPN article which was published today - as in, "Why did this article ever need to be written?"
The headline of today's article is, "Robert Kraft 'rooting for' Tim Tebow."
Tebow completed just 1 of 7 pass attempts in the team's August 16th preseason game, for -1 yard, and an interception. He didn't play at all in the game last Thursday. So, what is no one outside of ESPN asking? "Will Tim Tebow make the 53-man roster?" I don't know, but let's ask New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft about matters.
In response to such a question, Kraft said this:
"I'm rooting for him big time. I'm in his corner, but I have the privilege of letting Bill (Belichick) make those decisions. He has a pretty good record doing it."
Like with the question Mark Sanchez was recently posed about whether or not he was going to second-guess his coach (of course he's not going to, publicly anyway), how did ESPN reporters expect Kraft would respond to such a question?
"You know what? I'm just going to come out and say it - Tim Tebow sucks at playing football! He might be a good guy, but he's not going to help our team win football games unless he places God on our side and makes miracles happen on Sundays through prayer over on our sideline. As far as I see it, though, he'd be better off behind a podium than on a football field, and I highly doubt he'll make the 53-man roster. He sucks - plain and simple. Next question..."
Of course he's not going to say anything like that. I swear, sometimes ESPN isn't sure whether they want to be ESPN or TMZ. That'll be the day. MTV goes from Music Television to "Reality" Television and ESPN goes from showcasing and analyzing sports to showcasing and analyzing athletes' personal lives. I guess MTV has already fulfilled that lofty goal, so now it's all on you, ESPN!
