TMZ spotted new Jets backup quarterback/meme generator/Carnegie Deli sandwich Tim Tebow getting a mani/pedi in Hollywood this week—they even snagged a picture of Tebow in the chair at MB Nails in West Hollywood. So it seems Tebow really does understand the way to coach Rex Ryan's heart—so don't be surprised if Tebow suddenly shows up to the team's first practice with a ridiculously ugly leg tattoo.
In case you forgot the details, Ryan probably has a foot fetish, he thinks his wife is "awesome," and it's kind of cute really. But here's the really exciting news out of Jets camp this week: Jets owner Woody Johnson is totally up for another round of HBO's Hard Knocks. Johnson told the Star-Ledger that he's heard talk that HBO is interested in signing up the team for its training-camp documentary show—and once the team is given a "formal invitation,' they'll consider it.
Jets tight end Dustin Keller is excited about the possibility: "We would be good for Hard Knocks, especially with Rex's personality, the Tebow trade. I definitely see how we would be appealing," Keller said. "With everything that's going on right now, there couldn't be any more exposure." What we're really excited about: finding out how many more kids virile cornerback Antonio Cromartie has.
