Mark Sanchez’s Agent Calls Him a “Franchise Quarterback,” Takes Shot At Tim Tebow
Well, the circus had already been set up, and with the arrival of some May offseason activities, there was plenty of chatter about Tim Tebow today (he threw two interceptions on back to back passes! in May!). That’s fine, there’s going to be plenty of noise any time he does anything. Background noise, but noise.
Well, Brian Murphy of Athletes First, who represent Mark Sanchez, weighed in after that performance on Twitter and suggests you get popcorn for this circus.
“No offense media, but of course Sanchez is going to outperform Tim T., Mark is a franchise quarterback and Tim is a great athlete.”
Nice. And unnecessary. He’s definitely got the agent thing working as he gets ready to represent Sanchez as a franchise quarterback. Looks like Brian Murphy’s cutoff for a franchise quarterback is at a passer rating of around 75.

In the CFL, sure.
No idea how an agent would think that is an appropriate comment to make.

Noise = Pageviews. And I’m ok with that. The commenting section is at its most entertaining when Sanchez posts come up.

It’s too bad this gem didn’t go up two hours ago.

I feel like Sanchez would be getting better representation from Teague Egan.
By the way, if none of yall have been to the First Round website recently, it’s got even douchier.

‘this means war’ mustve been like mr. and mrs. smith without any of that pesky charm or charisma.

If you guys read nothing else today, do read that Teague Egan interview I just linked. These are actual excertps:
Heitner: Tell me a little more about your capital division.
Egan: This division began based on my and my dad’s background. I have has several investments in many fields, stocks and bonds (he says that Apple is his biggest holding), money in BlackRock, global allocation funds. The main area that I am looking at is venture capital and investments into small, upcoming businesses that have huge potential for growth.
Heitner: What are your thoughts on what has been written about you thus far?
Egan: What I have done is almost revolutionary. I have gone into unchartered waters. I am one of, if not the youngest certified agent, and I am an undergraduate student at a university. Everything that has happened is absolutely ridiculous. It is such a unique situation. The rules are in place to prevent people like Cam Newton from getting $180,000 or Reggie Bush from having houses bought for his parents, not to prevent students from getting rides in golf carts from other students. They try to stress “student” coming before “athlete” in almost everything. If you want to claim that, then I am a “student” first and then an “agent”. Call me a “student-agent.”

That word is the bedmark of a strong sentence.

Is Sanchez’ really proper grammar? Serious question.

Tim Tebow has more home playoff wins than Mark Sanchez. So there’s that.
I love Tebow in NY. All the media explosion when anything happens. I am really going to enjoy Jason’s slide from staunch Sanchez supporter to calling for Tebow to start game 6.
