    I just don't understand how an editor signs off on this.

    It was a funny bit on Conan's original NBC show, but ...

    Is the All-Purpose, Running Tim Tebow Sucks/Is A Deity Thread (TM Creosote) not a sufficient vehicle for this material?

    Nope...I guess we need more Tebow.


    Um...no...we don't.

    I agree. This isn't about Tebow. This is about NFL.com's horribly stupid coverage of him, hence its placement in journalism section.

    Sadly, I have an editor who would see this and think it's fun.

    I think it's fun ... for TMZ. Then again, I don't really think of NFL.com as independent analysis, but I'm also not an NFL fan. So no idea if its guys do hold their own.

    Even though I think it is silly, I understand the method behind it. They are trying to bring in more women to the website.

    Stupid. Totally unnecessary. Shouldn't the league's flagship website be above crap like this?
