The Boston Red Sox may hate the New York Yankees, but apparently they have no such venom for the New York Jets.
Red Sox 2B Dustin Pedroia is showing QB Tim Tebow a little love -- Pedroia doubtless has his tongue firmly planted in his cheek -- pinning up a picture of the backup quarterback's shirtless jog through the rain over the weekend at Jets training camp in his locker.

Pedroia also pasted a picture of his own head onto Tebow's sculpted, 6-3, 250-pound body.
Pedroia goes about 5-9, 180 with far less hair than the Jets' matinee idol.
"Wow," Tebow laughed when he heard the news from reporters Monday.
"Oh, man, no I didn't hear that but thanks for telling me. That's pretty funny."
Tebow seemed to get a kick out of most of the hullabaloo over his jaunt through the downpour.
"My shirt felt like 20 pounds because we had been in the rain and then I was signing autographs for like 20 or 30 minutes," he said. "I didn't really think you all would be filming it and taking pictures.
"I can't tell you how many times probably at Florida or at Denver after practice I would do sprints back and forth (shirtless) and jog off the field and never think about it again. It would never get reported, but now it does."
Welcome to New York, Tim.
