Tim Tebow is a pretty cool dude, but we can’t understand the football reasons behind why the Philadelphia Eagles just signed him to a contract.
Neither can the Washington Redskins, Philadelphia’s NFC East rivals.
The Eagles tweeted a picture of Tebow sporting an Eagles long-sleeve t-shirt while signing his contract Monday afternoon. Shortly thereafter, the Redskins tweeted the following:

That’s a picture of Kermit the Frog sipping Lipton Iced Tea, a popular meme entitled “But That’s None Of My Business.”
For those not in the know, the meme is essentially a sarcastic expression used as a postscript to an insult or disrespectful remark said towards a specific individual or group.
In other words, the Redskins are sub-tweeting their division foes — “Everyone says our quarterbacks are bad, but you just added Tim Tebow to a group of mediocre-at-best quarterbacks that already includes Mark Sanchez? Yikes…
“But that’s none of our business.”
Hilarious.
But not as funny as what some Eagles fans had to say in response.

Keep up the great work, NFC East. Five more months ’til football.
