08:07 AM ET 05.11 | As of Thursday, Jets quarterbacks Mark Sanchez and Tim Tebow were getting along quite well, thank you very much. "I think it'll be great," Tebow said. ... Coach Rex Ryan has hinted Tebow will play other positions besides backup and Wildcat quarterback, such as fullback or H-back. But Tebow said he has participated only as a quarterback thus far, and still is trying to adapt to the new offense being installed by first-year coordinator Tony Sparano. "It's all [about] the offense," the former Denver quarterback said of his studying. "I'm just trying to learn that. I'm sure that will take a little while putting in an entire offense, learning third downs and everything we want to put in. That's our main focus right now."

Wow..this is Jets day on FN. Never has a team said so much and shown so little.

Get their time now. Future potential success is always more optimistic for the fans than current failures.

Young Tim will maintain my everlasting respect as long as he stays away from the Tony Awards and less-than-flattering pictures such as the one the current QB has in his portfolio...

Are you saying that if they do a dual photo shoot of Sanchez and Tebow for Esquire or GQ that you won't buy?

Nothing like seeing a 3 yo kid telling mommy he's hungry again. I figure once they can talk then those should go back to daddy.

Tebow sucks , I'm a Jet fan that never wanted him , this is why this franchise has been cursed for so long . Idiotic decisions that cripple the franchise , Hope he gets knocked out week 1

At first I thought the Abercrombie and Fitch reference had something to do with Tebow and Sanchez

I had a neighbor in Hawaii whose kid did that. I think she continued doing just cuz it kept them at a decent size. But yeah, that's a short term deal. Glad my kids were raised on formula.

I had some friends who were home-birth types, many years ago. They were all into that. I don't think it was the kids - the moms just didn't want to let that go.

Kids came out OK.

But what happens in school when they realize that milk comes out of a carton?
