Good News: Heisman Winner Steers Clear of Playboy's All-American Team

 

Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow and the University of Florida have decided he won't be a part of Playboy magazine's annual All-American college football team.

The university withdrew the quarterback's name from the list of nominees based on Tebow's Christian beliefs, Florida Today reported. Tebow supported the decision.

Playboy then said Tebow wouldn't have made the team anyway.

Daniel Weiss, senior media and sexuality analyst for Focus on the Family Action, said Tebow is upholding a positive image for children across the nation.

"Warped visions of sexuality may seem rampant in our culture, but we all have the power to stand up to them," he said. "Thanks to Tim Tebow for reminding us of that."
