Senator Reid compares Republicans to Jets

Found December 06, 2012 on Holdout Sports: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Tim Tebow
TEAMS: New York Jets

Nevada Senator Harry Reid spent some time on the Senate floor Thursday comparing the Republican party to the New York Jets. Seriously. As Senator Reid was speaking about the current state of federal budget negotiations when he brought up the Jets, comparing their quarterback situation with the lack of a clear leader in the GOP. "Coach [Rex] Ryan, he's got a problem. He has three quarterbacks: [Mark] Sanchez, he's got Tim Tebow, he's got a guy named [Greg] McElroy. He can't decide who their quarterback is going to be. That's the same problem Republicans are having. Romney's gone, but he's still in the background...Who is their quarterback, Mr. President?"We don't think this is a fair comparison, as we don't ever recall Mitt Romney running into someone else's behind.

Tim Tebow is nothing if not a family man. The New York Jets quarterback has openly state on numerous occasions that family and faith come before football.

Just when the Jacksonville Jaguars thought they had a chance at selling out the stadium this Sunday, Rex Ryan named Mark Sanchez the starting QB for Week 14 spoiling the return of Tim Tebow to the Florida area.

Via NESN.com  |  December 06, 2012
The quarterback controversy in New York appears to have no end in sight. And another wrinkle just made it even more complicated. Mark Sanchez is keeping his starting job, for now.

Now, as the Jets...

Senator Harry Reid (D-Nevada) seems to be one of the few politicians who does a decent job of keeping up with the world of professional sports. That’s not to say politicians need to follow sports closely, but many of them attempt to reference sports issues to connect with the people and wind up embarrassing themselves.
