This is a video of Paul Pierce “Tebowing”, which caused CBS Boston to ask the question, “Is Paul Pierce Tebowing?”

Many people thought he was doing the move named after New York Jets quarterback Tim Tebow, who gets down on a knee and bows his head for a brief prayer on the field.

“You just want to thank God for putting you in those positions,” Pierce told reporters after the game. ”It wasn’t pre-scripted. It just came to me.”

I love that. He should hit a three-pointer and start planking, then have a press conference afterwards where he googles “planking” and laughs as he shows it to reporters. “I don’t know, I just made it up!!”

Not looking forward to early next year when they find out about Jeremy Lin.

Kate Upton was on the Dan Patrick Show earlier today, which marks just another example of how she continues to ignore us, and to make my feelings hurt even more, she’s somewhat of a regular on the show. If you recall, Upton was a guest during Super Bowl week, and she was joined by her fellow Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue model Chrissy Teigen and the thousands of bros listening were like, “Dude.”

From that appearance came the above photo, Tweeted by Teigen with great enthusiasm, and today Upton added the least surprising revelation to how that photo came about. Obviously, both models wanted the picture with ESPN’s favorite QB, but Tebow? Not so much.

(Via DP Show producer Paul Pabst.)

I realize that man card jokes are so 5 years ago, but this is pretty ridiculous. Think about it – if even the most conservative person agreed with Tebow that a harmless picture with Upton and Teigen could somehow sully his perfect wholesome image, how would that person react to knowing that he stayed at the same hotel that the Adult Video News Awards were being hosted at just a week earlier?

It’s absurd. Just as absurd as any man – gay, straight, religious, godless, political, anarchic, blind or with the vision of a cyborg eagle – turning down a picture with these two women. Because nothing is more important than a man’s bragging rights.

Just leave the poor guy alone to get shot by sex arrows and masturbate with his Jesus stripper pole. (On a serious note, how amazing is the “click like if you think Tim Tebow mastrubates” request?)

"If you're just gonna keep throwing to Gronk, I'm gonna go check out some boobies."

If the NFL counted Tweets as receiving yards, then Chad Ochocinco would have been the greatest single season receiver in New England Patriots history last year. Sadly, that idea will have to wait for the next CBA meetings. Ochocinco – who may or may not be changing his last name back to Johnson – has told the Patriots that he will drop his $3 million salary to $1 million just to keep his spot on the roster in 2012.

In the meantime, Ocho is still Tweeting away, and one man recently reached out to the once-boastful Pat to help put an end to his lack of confidence and non-existent love life. Ocho’s advice?

I’d love to produce a talk show for Ocho on which lonely losers ask him advice and his answer to every problem is: “Strip club.” Because, honestly, that is pretty much the perfect answer to any problem. Well, except maybe a combination of sex addiction and no money. In that case, the advice should be whatever the opposite of a strip club is. I guess that would either be church or a WNBA game.

Nevertheless, the girls at Tootsie’s in Miami have risen to the challenge and welcome Ocho’s lonely pal with open… um, arms.

Serbian tennis star Novak Djokovic and Argentine footballer Lionel Messi are among the sports stars named on Time magazine’s “The 100 Most Influential People In The World” for 2012, listed alongside such world-shapers as Burmese President U Thein Sein, public health statistician Hans Rosling and the red-haired lady who isn’t Emma Stone from The Help.

Of course, no list of ANYTHING written in 2012 can be compiled without including New York Jets quarterback/Easter Bunny Tim Tebow, and because the list was probably put together in February it also includes Jeremy Lin. Remember when Jeremy Lin was a thing?

Lin had his entry written by Arne Duncan, the U.S. Secretary of Education (it’s just “Jeremy Lin likes to WIN”, you don’t need to read it). Tebow, oddly enough, had his entry written by Jeremy Lin.

Here’s Lin’s work, with an introductory paragraph that establishes themes and makes you wish he’d chosen to be an English major.

In a story that is hopefully already in the process of becoming a Kissing Suzy Kolber skit, New England Patriots tight end, pitch man, folk hero and porn star gronker Rob Gronkowski attended a scheduled public speaking event at the University of Rhode Island and was asked probably the most learned thing a college kid in Rhode Island could ask Rob Gronkowski: “Marry, Eff, Kill: Rex Ryan, Tim Tebow, Betty White?”

Jets head coach Rex Ryan is a pretty obvious “kill” here, because 1) he’s Rex Ryan, 2) Tim Tebow wouldn’t be negatively affected by death because he’s set with The Lord, and 3) Betty White is about to die anyway. Assumedly you’d want to “marry” Betty, because she’s a rich old humanitarian who has managed to remain lovable despite the Internet’s attempts to ruin her, so that leaves Tim Tebow as your “eff”.

So how would that work, exactly? Gronkowski explains:
