Remember in high school English class when your teacher would ask you to compare and contrast? Consider this a prime example.On the one hand you have Tim Tebow, currently the second string quarterback for the New York Jets. By all accounts Tebow is a god-fearing, church-going, non-violent, non-drinking All-American young man.

From preseason through the playoffs, Tebow invites one child who is suffering from a serious health issue, along with their family, to be his guest at every home and away game. Press reports about this “W15H Program” repeatedly show Tebow interacting with the child both before and after each game, even if his team loses.His foundation is also constructing a hospital for underprivileged communities in the Philippines.

After learning of the Dez Bryant rules that were apparently mandated by the Cowboys, there was talk that the rules could violate the CBA. But according to 105.3 The Fan, the rules don’t actually violate the CBA. Mainly because the rules were not handed down by the Cowboys.
