Florida fans are trying to get everyone to wear eye black this weekend in honor of Tim Tebow’s final home game.

Several groups of Florida fans agree, although there are others who believe Tebow shouldn’t be singled out on senior day. It’s unclear who originated the idea to have everyone wear eye black for Tebow’s finale against rival Florida State, but the plan has spread quickly through Twitter, Facebook, Internet message boards and blogs.

Normally I’m of the “rival fan” variety that is sick of hearing about the media’s obsession over all things Tim Tebow.

Tim Tebow took a dump! Oh, he did it with such dignity! What a guy! Oh, golly gosh darn!

But this time, I’m not bothered. It sounds like a nice tribute for the guy who has helped bring 2 national championships to Florida and quite possibly a third. In fact… is eye black enough? Most guys who have done with Tebow has done end up with a monument, shrine or statue of some sort.

I’d expect to see something along those lines eventually, but it unfortunately goes against that whole “idols” business in that Bible book he’s quite fond of.

It’s not gay if it’s with Tebow. That is all.
