One of our readers just sent in a tip about a new “petition” going around online asking people to sign and become an official member of TEAM Tebow. TEAM Tebow is tmade up of football fans, college football fans, and Tim Tebow fans, specifically. It’s basically a group of people that are agreeing to follow Tim in the NFL and support whichever team drafts him – even if he lands on a team you hate. There are a couple of rules you need to know before signing the petition.

1. You don’t have to be a Gator fan to join – just a Tebow fan.
2. You respect the morals and values that Tim Tebow espouses and stands up for.
3. You support whatever team drafts Tebow

It will be hard for true NFL fans to stick to these rules… for example, if you’re a die hard Cowboys fan and TIm gets drafted to the Redskins – can you really support that team? Probably not. You can still like Tebow as a player, but I don’t think you’re going to be lining up to buy Redskins gear.

With that said, I definitely think there is a niche of loyal Tebow followers that will become fans of whatever team he gets drafted to. People who may have only been college fans before and might not have a favorite pro team.

If you’d like to view the petition and sign it, please click here. There are currently 81 supporters, with a goal of 100,000.
