what remains unknown is what will happen to current starting quarterback tim tebow. despite taking the team to a playoff win last year, multiple reports say the broncos are putting tebow on the trading block. >> we've got a lot more to co r cover. >>> new information about the night trayvon martin died. the teenage girl heard the whole thing go down. public outrage builds against the man who pulled the trigger. what kind of man is george zimmerman. today you'll hear his voice. cnn's anwar damon shares the stories of the youngest victims in syria. then would it surprise you if i told you uncle sam is selling millions of dollars worth of wheat to iran? the search resumes for the most famous woman aviator. what happened to amelia earhart? americans believe they should be in charge of their own future. how they'll live tomorrow. for more than 116 years, ameriprise financial has worked for their clients' futures. helping millions of americans retire on their terms. when they want. where they want. doing what they want. ameriprise. the strength of a leader in retirement pl

tim tebow is trading the mile high stadium for the bright lights of the big apple. he has been traded to the new york jets after his old team, the denver broncos, added superstar peyton manning to its rost roster. tebow is known for his strong faith. headline for "the daily news" reads gangrene gets tebow, amen. the new york post sums it up, tebow, a new york jet, god him. >>> supporters of trayvon martin want the man who shot and killed him to go to jail. george zimmerman told police he acted in self-defense when he gunned down the unarmed teen last night. last night the town commission passed a no confidence vote against the police chief. cnn's george howell is live in sanford, and, george, set the scene for us, if you will. what are folks hoping to accomplish there? >> reporter: well, at this point we know that hundreds, if not thousands, of people will be arriving here to sanford, and really there's one rallying -- several rallies messages, one main rallying message. they want to see george zimmerman behind bars. the other message is they want to see this police

tebow, it really is more about tim tebow's back story. this is a guy who, look, arguably is great when it comes to his athleticism on the field. but it's really about him off the field, as well. you know, this is a man who is a devout christian. we have seen this on the field when he does his tebowing moves, you know, that sort of thinker pose when he gets down and he kneels. we have seen that. he's the self-proclaimed 24-year-old virgin. so i think there is so much attention to a story like this. because of this man's back story. that's why you're seeing all this attention sort of being generated about a press conference for a back-up quarterback, which, by the way, is about to start in about an hour from now, we're hearing. it's just going to be tebow up there, no one else. >> i like how you said self-proclaimed 24-year-old virgin. i don't know why that made me laugh. some people are saying, oh, my gosh, tim tebow is this big sensation, in godless new york city. what's the deal? >> reporter: well, look. when it comes to religion, it's a

. >>> i think we'll be talking about tim tebow to the end of time. he's a jet and everybody is saying the right things. >> he said he's excited. we joked about it three dozen times yesterday. you know he's trying to start things right in new york. no tabloid fodder where 200 media press he showed up. he will be the backup quarterback. jets signed mark sanchez to a big contract extension. tebow down played any possibilities of a quarterback controversy. >> mark is very secure as a football player and as a person and who he is. i don't think he's going to let outsiders affect how he goes about his preparation or how he plays. i think i'm excited about my role here, too, and my opportunity and my opportunity to compete. >> leave it to the tabloids to turn it into something. this is the "new york post" headline, "i'm the man." mark sanchez says he's not worried about losing his starting job. you're talking more about the tebow news conference coming up because tim tebow i the man everyone follows in sports. you can't give people enough tim tebow informat

just look for the white check. >> tim tebow speaks out for the first time as a new york jet and says he's excited. i'll say. sure getting a lot of press attention for a second string quarterback. >> 250 members of the press showing up for a backup quarterback. it's unprecedented. this isn't just any backup quarterback as you know. this is tim tebow a man who has given himself through his athleticism on the field and through his faith off the field quite a reputation and i think people in new york nationwide would see what he had to say about the new york jets. >> he talked about his faith, didn't he? >> he did. look, i mean, everyone knows about tebowing. he talked about it, when h egets on the field, he does that famous move that we see there. he says he's been doing that for seven years. and during the press conference, i said to him, look, obviously a lot of the attention is about your accomplishments on the field but also about your faith. listen to what he had to say. >> i'm pretty sure i'm not the first@looet that has gotten oen a knee and pray. but somehow it's known for tebow

obviously with peyton manning and tim tebow then sean payton the most, the stiffest penalty we've ever seen in the nfl. >> right. >> obviously roger goodall is proving he in fact does want to see the nfl be a much safer game. sean payton is basically, yeah. apologizing for lack of a better word. the nfl did slap him with a one-year suspension for putting bounties on players, on opposing players and we expected maybe a press conference but he actually put out a sfamt and we've got most of it here for you. it says i share and fully support the league's concerns and goals on player safety. it is and should be paramount, respecting our great game and the nfl shield is extremely important to me. our organization will implement all necessary protections and protocols and i will be more vigilant going forward. i am sorry for what has happened and as a head coach take full responsibility. the suspension is going to last an entire year and cost about $5.8 million in salary. >> wow. tiger woods, we were talking about this earlier, he has his game back it seems. >> if you like golf or even if you

they're all going to have the same problem denver had with tim tebow. he's going to have these passionate fans and they're going to force the team to do something they might not be ready to do. >> well, i don't think the fans are going to force teams to do something they don't want to do, but i think it will be somewhat of a pr nightmare if tebow isn't winning. any team that's actively pursuing tim tebow, one, is losing, so any good news -- any news is good news for them. and, two, they don't have a quarterback anyway. and so if you are in jacksonville with a relatively new owner or you're a cleveland browns where you haven't had much of anything to cheer about, why not get a guy who sold more jerseys in the nfl who will bring a lot of press to you, positive and negative, but at least he'll have people interested in your team. you might as well pick him, right? >> i am going to ask you the big question because you're an espn guy, a cnn guy, you know sports. can tebow become a great quarterback? >> it depends on the system that implemented in and whether

tebow. that's right. that's coming from their tweet right there, getting it firsthand that he's going to the new york jets. there you go. all right. >> big news. the big news. >> thank you, wendy. appreciate it. >> thanks. >>> going to take a quick break. i don't want healthy skin for a day. i want healthy skin for life.

tim tebow making his way to become a jet. but wait there is a real scrap going on between nike and reebok, avery. this being one of the makers decided to go ahead and make the product with his name on before the other would become the official nfl merchandise producer. so what's at issue here? nike is suing reebok. >> yeah. nike as of today takes over as the official shoemaker for the nfl. in anticipation of losing the contract, what reebok did after the trade from denver to new york, they grabbed tim tebow and started cranking out tebow stuff. well, nike claims, well, look, the deadline is today. that's not fair. it's unfair. it's violating certain intellectual property rights. therefore, we think we're entitled to relief. actually what happened here, fredricka, is that tim tebow's lawyers jumped in. on march 1st, reebok lost all rights to tebow's name. they went ahead and this past week a federal district judge granted a restraining order against reebok from putting any more material out there and making any more marketing

tebow, quarterback for the denver broncos, how does he fit into all of this? >> well, he doesn't fit into the bronco's picture. they were never comfortable even last year when tim led them to the playoffs. they were not comfortable with his style of play. he's more of a runner than a passer. he's not very good in the pocket. and i think that john elway and the team wanted a traditional pocket passer and they're going to look to move, to trade tim tebow at this point, and i don't know how many football people necessarily are going to be interested in tim but you can count on some owner wanting to sign him. he brings a lot of attention to a team and he has fans. you would have to look at a team like jacksonville and a team like miami. there's a possibility he's a good fid t in philadelphia. tim's game mirrors michaels a little bit. >> jim, trotter, thank you very much. peyton manning to the broncos. >>> here is a run down on some of the stories we're covering over the next hour. if you have a 401(k), you want to listen to this. apple giving back $10 billion to i

where does tim tebow go? you have to think he won't be in denver much longer. some spots he could land, the jets maybe, where he plays maybe part time as a quarterback, not the full-time starter. the big spot, jacksonville, back to his roots. he was a florida gator. they would go nuts to see him in jacksonville, even if they didn't necessarily win a ton of games. nba last night, check out utah jazz guard jamal tinsley, right between the legs. and the hoop. watch again. muhammad can't believe it. tinsley scores, the jazz win 97-90. >>> the women's ncaa basketball tournament going on now. bayl baylor, the heavy favorite. watch, their leader, britney brianer dunks. she dominates college women's hoops and she dunked in the game. she's just the second woman to dunk in the ncaa tournament. >> that's awesome. >> incredible. she's the best player in women's college hoops. >> congratulations on the new baby. >> thank you, we're very happy in the fischel home. >> i saw a picture. that's one cute baby. >> thank you. >> thanks, jeff. >>> we're following a lot of developmen

now tim tebow is there. all right. nba hoops. mavs and lakers last night. watch this one. pal gasol throws the ball up. kobe bryant catches it, the reverse layup. >> wow. >> it's incredible. kobe gets the free throw as well for three-pointer play. lakers one 109-93. mavs four-game winning streak over. >>> march madness resumes tonight. we're down to the sweet 16. syracuse plays wisconsin. ohio state. look at the in-state battle. marquette and florida. after tonight two teams -- four teams in regional finals battling for two of the final four spots. speaking of the sweet 16, watch every game life. attach the action only at ncaa.commarchmadness. more than 13,000 fans competing in the brackets right here on cnn.com. i know you're doing oh, so well. i told her go with missouri. i know you like the tigers. >> i'm last. i don't think i'm going to win. although i did choose ohio state to win it all. if they win it all, at least i have that to crow about. i'm sad about it, jeff. why did you mention it? >> always here to make you feel better. >> thanks so much. finally this hour ba

today the new york jets are holding a news conference to interdeuce tim introduce tim tebow. he's the hugely popular former denver broncos quarterback. they traded tebow after signing four-time nfl most valuable player peyton manning. >>> and it has all the markings of a landmark case. the u.s. supreme court deciding the fate of the sweeping health care reform law. one of the signature accomplishments of president obama's administration in its first term. the justices heard the first round of what's a very lengthy debate. they're going to hear a total of six hours, and that's unusual, folks. six hours over three days, and a ruling is not expected soon. probably sometime around june. the central issue in this case, whether what's called the individual mandate that takes effect in 2014 is constitutional. it requires almost all americans to buy health insurance or pay a penalty for not doing so. congressional correspondent kate bolduan and senior legal analyst jeffrey toobin were both in court for today's arguments. they are here with us live outside in the crowd, probably a lit

you have to really understand who are you and obviously tim tebow understands who he is and he understands his faith and i don't see him having any problem being in new york city. >> sounds like you're agreeing with urban meyer. i want to read a quote i read in the times this morning. i think new york is unique, by the way, urban meyer, the former coach at florida. i think new york is unique. if there is anyone that can handle it is tim. he will handle everything up front and first class and humble about everything and probably a whole different animal in new york but he handles everything the same way. here is my but. college ball isn't nearly as scrutinized as pro, as nfl, is it? >> no, not at all. if you follow tim tebow's career, ever since he has been to the nfl, all of the people that he has grown up watching, all the quarterbacks that he admired growing up, all of these different stations and the pundits, they rip him and the fact he can overcome all of that, his idols not giving him much of a chance and him going out and doing it in the fourth quarter to me is very impressive. that
