So that's where all the Tebow jerseys are, seeing as you can't find one anywhere in the Tri-State area or online unless you want the fake looking ones from the five year old sweat shop in China.

P.S. You live in Florida and Tebow is most popular down there. What did you expect? The Jets aren't a local team so why would they carry anyone else's jersey?

He was a superstar down there...

Plus a Jesus freak where there are many Jesus freaks..

Makes sense to me.. I would expect to see his jersey all over the state...

I'm in VIrginia. Yesterday a girl who worked at Busch Gardens started trash talking me because of a Jets tee I was wearing. Turns out she was from Jacksonville but was a Dolphins fan. She was piling it on pretty good about the Jets (good natured, she was a sweetheart) but oh man did her eyes light up when talking about Tebow. Apparently he truly is a deity to these Florida folks...

In the South it's all about your college football allegiance. Professional teams come second. Something I've yet to comprehend.

Wait until the Jets travel to Florida to play... it's going to be like a home crowd with one exception, half of them will be cheering loudest when Tebow gets in the game.

The home crowd in Florida for Tebow should double from 500 fans to 1,000 fans

I officially hate every sports team from Florida- especially the Dollphins, Heat, and Gators.

the good part is next year they will all be in the trashbin and the Sunshine State Gaytor Boneheads will be sporting Jagwire Black, Teal and Gold Teblow jerseys...

and we'll have that high second round pick Mr Khan will be offering to desperately try and fill up his empty stadium so that Timmy can lead the Jaguars to a 2-14 season and the first pick in 2014 NFL April draft

Loyalty to a college team actually makes a lot more sense than loyalty to a professional one.

Unless you went there, not really. Three or four years per player, and most won't even start that long. Talk about change.

This is the mindset of a person that only follows professional sports.



Tim Tebow is a Gator for life. He will only ever be a Gator. No Bronco or Jet fan will ever have the same attachment to him that UF fans do.



And rivalries in professional sports have nothing on college rivalries.

LOL

If Sanchez gets hurt or plays like crap to start the season and Tebow is inserted into the starting lineup and plays well, I can't wait to see you change your tune. Because we all know you will.
