ESPN Reports: "Tim Tebow played with a boo-boo" Awwwww...

Before I give my take on this article, I'll give everyone a chance to read it for themselves. Here she is - http://espn.go.com/nfl/playoffs/2011/story/_/id/7474270/denver-broncos-tim-tebow-played-injuries-vs-new-england-patriots-source-says That's right, in the physical, violent, often times brutal sport known as football (to Americans anyway), Denver Broncos' quarterback Tim Tebow played hurt in Saturday night's 45-10 loss to the New England Patriots.

I'd love to see a defensive slugfest between San Fran and Baltimore, yet would also enjoy seeing Tom Brady and the Patriots offense face the Niners' staunch defense. In any case, why are we still writing/talking about Tim Tebow?
