You know you've reached the big time when they make panties in your honor.

Such is the case for Florida's Tim Tebow. The Gators' Heisman Trophy winner is the inspiration for some women's underwear being sold on the Internet called "TeeBows." The thongish undergarments are described on the website http://teebows.com as "fun and functional, these T-Backs are a sturdy blend of 90% cotton and 10% lycra, resulting in a sexy - yet athletic - undergarment perfect for that Gator Gal in your life."

The website had to tone down its relationship to Tebow, and not because he's an outspoken Christian. The University of Florida and Collegiate Licensing recently sent a cease and desist letter for using a picture of Tebow and the Gators' official logo to promote their product. Otherwise the panties are still available at $6 a pair.
