Fred was sent off in Manchester United’s 3-1 loss to Paris Saint-Germain, after the referee deemed him guilty of two bookable offences. Fred really should have been sent off in the first half for a headbutt on Leandro Paredes. After a look at the on-field monitor, the referee deemed that offence only worthy of a yellow card.

Earlier in the week, Fox Sports reported there were about eight teams showing interest in Tebow. The Braves were the most vocal, with their general manager saying, “There’s no risk” in signing the former Heisman-winning quarterback.
