We all know that ESPN and SportsCenter tend to play favorites—exhibit A is TebowCenter, of course—but just how absurd does the disparity get? For that, we go to the New York Times, where they've tracked the number of mentions for each player all season, then scaled each player to size, based on number of mentions. It's a fantastic chart, so check it out. (Spoiler Alert: Tim Tebow is gigantic and headed straight for Tokyo.)

Kyle Orton
Each Kyle Orton mention should probably count as half of one for Tebow. I’d bet a good percentage of the time he was mentioned, it was when he was blocking Tebow from starting early in the year. Not to mention the revenge storyline in KC vs. DEN late in the year.
