Darrelle Revis will not appear on HBO's Hard Knocks, at least for now.

Well, this space was rooting for ESPN's Tim Cowlishaw's bold tweet to materialize into reality, but as of this writing at 3 PM EST, it hasn't. New York Jets Cornerback Darrelle Revis has not signed with the New York Jets today, Wednesday.

This just happens to be the very same Wednesday that Cowlishaw, the Dallas Morning News Columnist, and ESPN Around The Horn star, predicted Revis would come and sign with the New York Jets.

But, as Mike Florio reports at Pro Football Talk.com, New York Jets Owner Woody Johnson said that the Revis situation remains "status quo." Which in turn means Tim's got egg on his face.

Tim Cowlishaw's bold Twitter tweet was met with a lot of derision from New York Jets beat writers, who both feared that Tim scooped them and believed they better knew the situation with the Jets and what Revis was or wasn't going to do.

Now that the deal hasn't went down, Tim Cowlishaw's reputation's taking a whipping online, and especially on Twitter. Here's some choice items:



Hern_Quin - @aroundthehorn Is it true @TimCowlishaw won an Emmy for "Revis and Butthead" the Lost Episode? @WoodyPaige @BillPlaschke

MikeD713 - @TimCowlishaw quiet are we ? #liar http://myloc.me/b3Hzn
