Time For The Tim Tebow/New England Patriots Marketing Juggernaut!

Tim Tebow is one of those guys people seem to either love or hate. Thankfully for all the charity work he does the general sentiment leans more towards love than hate--even though the love affair that the media has with him nearly cost him his career.

While the media blitz may be annoying for Patriots head coach Bill Belichick and the rest of the Patriots it is a boon to the Patriots merchandising and marketing efforts as well as anyone else looking to make a buck of the name of the most popular back-up QB in the NFL.

The above t-shirts are something that have popped up on EBay in the short time that Tebow has been with the Patriots. Like this enterprising individual, the team wasted no time either; in fact, they started selling jerseys before Tebow was even assigned a number!

In the initial two days following Tebow joining the team it has been a little hard for fans in the Boston area to find their Tim Tebow Patriots apparel, but it does take time for companies to print and ship things. His No. 5 jersey is available to order online though and there will certainly be much more available in the near future.

Heck, there's a trading card already even!
