Jeff Hart: Tuesday Linkfest for December 13, 2011

By: Jeff Hart | Posted: December 13, 2011

GOOD VS. EVIL, DAY II: With his apocalyptic confrontation with Tom Brady looming on the horizon, Tim Tebow is likely taking comfort in the words of his pastor. Unequivocally declaring what many sportswriters have been coyly suggesting for weeks, Tebow’s pastor confirmed that God’s favor is indeed responsible for the Broncos winning streak.  

Meanwhile, in Washington, a local news anchor said that the Redskins would’ve needed Tom Brady to be dead in order to win. Might that also be the answer for this Sunday’s game? Is it possible for Brady to be smote before kick-off?

I could probably waste more time discussing God’s favor (for instance: if God is playing favorites, does that mean he prefers the Lions to the Broncos? THE LIONS?!), but instead how about a display of preternatural human skill? New catch-of-the-year candidate right here:

We’ve reached the time of the year where I bitterly declare that fantasy football is a waste of time, but if DeMarco Murray and Arian Foster didn’t combine forces to derail your playoff run yesterday, maybe you could still use some waiver advice. Keep an eye on The Fantasy Football Librarian as more waiver recommendations from around the internet roll in this morning.

Seattle fans threw Skittles at Marshawn Lynch last night. I really hope this develops into a permanent celebration. A more important discovery during last night’s thrilling NFC West showdown? That the Rams have a player with the last name Ah You. Best last name ever, right?

Lastly, let’s all send a big congratulations to former Giants running back and multi-time husband-of-the-year award winner Tiki Barber for landing a sweet office job at a paper company. You deserve it, buddy! I’m sorry that Mark Brunell turned down your offer to carpool; don’t take it personally.
