Blog Entry: Tim Tebow unsure if he'll be starter gucci outletIf Tim Tebow has his sights set on Mark Sanchez's job, the New York Jets backup quarterback is keeping it to himself.Tebow told 1050 ESPN Radio on Friday that he's "not sure" if he'll ever be a starting quarterback again, and that thought doesn't even concern him right now."I don't know what the future holds, but I know who holds my future," Tebow said, referring to his strong Christian faith. "That's something that has always given me peace and comfort. That's why I don't have to worry about the future. I can just worry about today and worry about becoming better as a football player and a person."Tebow was acquired from Denver in a trade on March 21 and introduced Monday at a news conference that included more than 200 media members. He said his only plan is to help his new team win games and "be the best quarterback, best teammate, best football player I can be and just be someone that adds something to that locker room."Coach Rex Ryan and general manager Mike Tannenbaum repeatedly have said Sanchez is the unquestioned starter, with Tebow serving as the backup but having a significant role in the offense. Tebow has chosen his words carefully since arriving in New York, staying away from anything that could stir controversy. gucci shoes outletHe compared this situation to when he was a freshman at the University of Florida and backed up Chris Leak while seeing occasional snaps."Ultimately, it ended with a lot of success," Tebow said, "us winning a national championship."Tebow said he has met several of his new Jets teammates, including Bart Scott, Matt Slauson and D'Brickashaw Ferguson, and has spoken to Sanchez on the phone. He even defended Antonio Cromartie, who said on Twitter that he was against the trade for Tebow before it was made."It's great because he had his quarterback's back," Tebow said. "That's what you want. You want guys that are supporting your quarterback. I think that's great, and I commend him for doing that." The Boston Bruins revealed on Friday that defenseman Adam McQuaid did not suffer a concussion in Thursday's game against the Capitals. Instead, McQuaid's left eye is swollen shut and he will be unable to travel to New York with the team over the weekend.Claude Julien said, "There's no concussion, just a bad cut," according to a report from ESPN.com. Julien added that he expects McQuaid to be day-to-day once the team gets back from their road trip against the New York Rangers and Islanders. gucci handbags outletThe Bruins were hoping McQuaid wouldn't have to miss any significant time due to the fact that Dennis Seidenberg is already out with a leg infection. Unlike McQuaid, Seidenberg will travel with the team to New York. Julien did not give an indication of whether he would play in either of the Bruins' games. Derek Fisher was in the building Thursday, but the Lakers didn't hold a postgame team meeting, not even for old times' sake.They probably needed one.Andrew Bynum didn't take any ill-advised three-point shots and Kobe Bryant didn't sit four of the last six minutes, but the Lakers still got drilled in their 102-93 loss to Oklahoma City.They're out of excuses. They just aren't as good at the moment as the younger, springier Thunder.The Lakers were supposed to have solved their point-guard problems after securing Ramon Sessions from Cleveland a little more than two weeks ago.They are 4-4 since his arrival. He had seven points Thursday. Russell Westbrook had 36.Pau Gasol was off his game too, and it was only marginally related to foul trouble. He looked bewildered among the stout Thunder big men, getting three of his shots blocked and making only four of 11 overall.The Lakers (31-20) have even fumbled their one constant this season. They used to be unstoppable at home, winning 19 of their first 21 games, but that's over too. They've lost three of their last four at Staples Center. They were even booed in the fourth quarter Thursday.They have no chance at the top spot in the Western Conference. Almost no hope for second place.Of greater importance, the Clippers are now right behind them in the standings.
