As we head into the weekend, it's time for the ever popular FTFA. This week, we go for the intellect and wonder "what if?" Truth - No, but some fun along the way.
* What if Mo Lewis never hits Drew Bledsoe? Tom Brady never gets to be the QB of the Patriots. Bledsoe continues to put up stats while the Pats have a modicum of success. Bill Belichick never wins a Super Bowl as a head coach in New England. Peyton Manning goes on to win at least one more Super Bowl with the Colts and the Patriots are now in the running for QB Andrew Luck after a disatrous 2011 season.
* The Celtics get the top pick and draft Tim Duncan. Rick Pitino is still with the Celtics having won two NBA Titles. Kevin Garnett stays in Minnesota his entire career never getting to the NBA pinnacle. Ray Allen stays with the Sonics, who never leave Seattle, but gain Kevin Durant as the 1-2 inside-out punch with Allen to get to two NBA Finals and one NBA Finals victory. Danny Ainge never becomes the GM in Boston, but does take over in Phoenix, rebuilding the Suns arond A'mare Stoudemire for two NBA Titles that leave the Lakers in the dust.
* Pedro Martinez gets out of his eighth inning jam in 2003 in the ALCS Championship against the Yankees. Boston wins the game, the ALCS and defeats the Marlins in 5 games to win its first World Series crown in the modern era. Grady Little keeps his job as manager, Terry Francona & Bobby Valentine never come to Boston, but does take over in Cleveland. Josh Beckett, after losing to the Red Sox, remains in Florida, only to get traded to the NY Mets late in his career. Also never coming to Boston is John Lackey and Adrian Gonzalez, thus shutting out the chicken, beer and "you gotta eat something, right" era in Beantown. And of course, Tim Wakefield is never remembered for the Aaron "F'N" Boone home run!
Absurd, maybe. But fun to think about too!

Yes, it's all about The Chosen One this weekend. Tim Tebow comes to Foxboro as the Broncos and Patriots face-off in the NFL Divisional Playoffs on Saturday night. So, with that in mind, we give you a trio of "hits" that are making the rounds for Mr. Tebow, including a resounding remake from the one and only John "St.Elmo's Fire" Parr, Jimmy Fallon's David Bowie remix, "Tebowie" and yes, even a hip hop-ish fan song!
Enjoy!

As we hit the weekend, it's time for TFTFA and this week, we give you the quote edition with some of the best of the week. Check it out.
Cavs Owner Dan Gilbert - on Chris Paul Trade (via email to David Stern)
"I just don’t see how we can allow this trade to happen.
I know the vast majority of owners feel the same way that I do.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?
Angels outfielder Vernon Wells - on signing Albert Pujols (via Twitter)
"I love this game. We have the Machine!!"
ESPN's Mike Ditka on the Houston Texans
“I like this football team. They built this football team the right way
… They ought to send a memo over to the Colts – ‘This is the way you
build a football team. If you lose one player, you don’t lose the
season."
