OT: Guess who has the best-selling rookie jersey? - Page 3 - New England Patriots Forums

Good for Tebow, it's unbelievable how many people are talking bad about him. Even if he is a bust, there were plenty who were bigger wastes of money. Does anyone remember what they were saying about Brady at the draft (I don't remember). I bet it wasn't that he could win super bowls.

i'd be shocked if less than 90% of those jerseys aren't being shipped to florida.

I was thinking exactly the same thing...... 9 out of 10 of those jerseys are being bought by Florida Gator disciples.... I was thrilled to see him taken by Denver!

Actually a couple months ago they had a meeting with their season ticket holders and asked them to vote on Tebow - and the majority said "no."

Never mind the foolishness of leaving personnel decisions up to the fan base.

But apparently the fans didn't want him.

that is actually superinteresting ---- I never heard anything like that.

thx for the info.

the jags actually have a pretty decent team, and Garrard is pretty good.

The real problem is that Florida has 3 NFL teams and is more obsessed with college football anyways. The jags will never have even decent attendance figures.
