    OK, so if you're an advertiser, do you schedule a different ad than the one you would normally run?

    James "The Hitman" Harrison, suspended one game for his helmet-to-helmet hit on Colt McCoy. "It's not like I raped him in the bathroom or anything"

    I am not sure where the idea comes about that Tebow especially appeals to women. God-squadders, yes, but he has never been thought of as any kind of sex symbol.

    I realize this means I am participating in a discussion based on something Colin Cowherd said, which I guess means it's time for my yearly reaffirmation that I will never do that.

    Yeah, but a lot more women seem to be attracted to his religiosity than men.

    Plus, he's crossed into the mainstream, so just on a curiosity basis, more women are interested in him.

    If it was up to your boy Cowherd (and others), this game would feature Brady and Orton or Quinn, because Tebow is the fourth best qb on the roster, and would never have seen the light of day.

    Eventually, i think, this guy will get it. Currently, he doesn't.

    I'm much more curious about how Belichick plans to stop Tebow in the fourth quarter with a porous defense than in how many women tune in.

    If he hasn't gotten it yet, he's never going to. He's a nine-year vet who has been fined more than $100,000 this season. There is absolutely no evidence he'll suddenly "get it" in the last two or three years of his career.

    Once he doesn't have the Steelers babysitting him, I figure James Harrison has five years post-retirement before he finds the slammer for a long, long time.

    No, he won't. He hasn't figured it out by now ... no way will he ever. He's a clueless moron.

    Eh, I don't have a problem with that. His job is to help his team win the game. If he knocks a quarterback out of the game on a legal hit, he's done his job. If he knocks the QB out on an illegal hit, the flag hurts his team and the resulting suspension hurts his team.

    If his only motivation for changing the hit was to do what's best for his team, I have no problem if he doesn't take McCoy into account.

    Kyle Orton "beat" (with no help whatsoever from 50 other players) Tom Brady in 2009.

    Nobody went apeshit. Well, except Joshy McDaniels.
