The Jacksonville Jaguars are, by all accounts, going to sign free agent tight end Julius Thomas away from the Denver Broncos. And when former Broncos tight end Shannon Sharpe heard about it, he said that Thomas was quitting on Denver.
It all started with this tweet and quote from Sharpe, which was a direct quote from his tweet on Monday night.

So, the Broncos offered him less money than the Jaguars and he "quit" on them? Okay. Then Jaguars fans called him on it and we had a back-and-forth that got kind of nasty.
Your tm and fan base is the only thing pathetic. "@spyda3030: @BigCatCountry @ShannonSharpe @markschlereth it's pathetic really."

Shannon, stop.
This is just a few of the tweets and (for some reason) Sharpe has left them up for now. I'm assuming someone will be getting a hold of him soon, but for now the meltdown is there for all to see.
