Nike has filed a lawsuit against Reebok and the company which owns it, Adidas. The lawsuit claims that Reebok didn’t have the rights to make Tebow jerseys since they are no longer under contract to produce the jerseys. In a nutshell Nike is basically pissed that Reebok had every able hand in some third-world country pumping out Tebow jerseys as fast as humanly possible. Lets be realistic here. If this was some other player we wouldn’t even be having this discussion. But Nike knows that if someone went out and bought a Reebok Tim Tebow jersey, they damn sure aren’t going out to get a Nike Tim Tebow jersey next week. To make everything right in the world, Nike wants Reebok to pay them what is probably going to be a boat load of money. They also want all the jerseys to be destroyed, which is what I believe should be done with all Tim Tebow jerseys anyway.

P.S.- If you’re wondering why Reebok made Peyton Manning jerseys with no problem it’s because Peyton probably gave them permission to use his name on the jersey, while Tebow told Reebok that they could not use his name.

After seeing this video John Henry and Tom Werner, the owners of the Red Sox, signed this guy to their soccer team Liverpool. For 20 million euros. I don’t really have a problem with that because it’s their money and I don’t really like soccer. What I do have a problem with is that these guys run the Red Sox. After hearing this, I’m starting to wonder whether it was the players or the ownership who was more to blame for lasts seasons collapse? Ultimately it’s the players fault, but if this is the type of player scouting that the Red Sox owners rely on, what do you expect? Probably only takes a couple of hours and a basic understanding of video editing to make the Red Sox.

Happy Thanksgiving! Special shout out to Ndamukong Suh for stomping out Evan Dietrich-Smith like he owed him some money. That’s exactly get people to stop calling you a dirty player in this league, stomp them out. You got to be kidding me with that weak explanation after the game man. You were trying to get your balance? Before or after you stomped him? But in the end it doesn’t really matter because it’s a fact that as long as you produce in the NFL, you can basically get away with murder. Just ask Ray Lewis, O.J. and Marvin Harrison. My only advice for Suh is that next time you decide to do something like this, don’t get caught. Simple as that.

Second shout out to Tony Romo. Keep throwing those picks bro, at least now they can’t blame it on Jessica Simpson. If they lose to the Dolphins, Tony Romo and all Cowboy’s fans can kiss their playoff hopes goodbye. I myself would blame it on Romo’s new wife Candace Crawford. Works the same way in New England when fans blame Gisele. Only difference with that is that Tom Brady doesn’t suck and Romo does.
