  - The new owner, to his credit, seems to want nothing to do with the circus. -- nm - Reagen Aug 31, 12:52 3
    - New owner, IMO, wants to move the team. Tebow, even on the bench would=$, for the team. Honestly, team is going to struggle, with Gabbert. Might as - Flavorize Aug 31, 12:56 2
      - As a Jags fan and a Tebow hater, even I agree. Sign him, bench him and let him play a few down every few games - JaxSean Aug 31, 13:21
      - That tells you how bad he is. Gobs of money won't even lure them into signing him. -- nm - Bacon Aug 31, 12:57
- Sounds like the idol tweeting if he found God. -- nm - Inigo Aug 31, 12:40

    - At this point I think its gonna happen - eag Aug 31, 11:17 6
      - I think by passing the buck to congress for approval he's blinking - zeitgeist Aug 31, 11:22 1
        
        I think he is also trying to get the Brits back on board - eag Aug 31, 11:37

- Yeah they are -- nm - Remlik Aug 31, 11:14
- They started out as one. -- nm - Spawn Aug 31, 10:29
- Technically yes, but I think "boy band" indicates the genre is pop, not rock, R&B, etc. -- nm - Tim Aug 31, 10:26
- Technically yes, but only in the way I would call the Beatles a boy band. - ty97 Aug 31, 10:23 4

  - I was quoting twitter. That's why it was in quotes. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 31, 10:12 2
    - So no definition -- don't know what 'twitter' meant. I see. -- nm - OAE -- Explorer, Antarctica, Old Aug 31, 11:27 1
      - Twitter meant "I'm using sensationalistic words to suggest that I have deeper topical knowledge than others, which gives my idle speculation more - Beryllium Aug 31, 11:59

  - Maybe Obama bought a cowboy hat -- nm - Beryllium Aug 31, 10:11
So Buffalo and Oakland are the only teams currently desperate enough to consider Tebow, right? -- nm - David Aug 31, 10:06 8
- If he wants to play QB he really needs to consider Canadian or Arena to get some reps in and work on his horrid throwing motion. - Bacon Aug 31, 11:05 2
  - it's not like he can just decide to play in the CFL unilaterally - zork Aug 31, 11:08 1
    - I don't think NFL wants him. If you have him holding a clipboard you will end up with dellusional fans screaming for him to play. -- nm - Bacon Aug 31, 11:16
- My guess is Buffalo might wait to see if Houston carries 3 qb's - eag Aug 31, 10:12
- I suppose he could still be picked up by the Jags -- nm - eag Aug 31, 10:10
- if the Jets are confident in Simms -- nm - mud Aug 31, 10:09 2
  - There is zero chance of him coming back here. -- nm - Krusty Aug 31, 10:10 1
