Oh, my Fucking Tebow! ???

I can think of a several dozen players of days-gone-by that'd make my "Greatest College Football Player Ever" list before I reached Tebow's over-rated name. Originally Posted by Chateau Becot

No one cares about stats and excuses.

Wins and championships are all that matter.

He did hit a home run in his first professional at bat.

During batting practice that day, Tebow crushed eight balls over the fences at the University of Southern California's baseball stadium. But let me repeat the operative words: batting practice. Against two former major-league pitchers that day, he was overmatched. And his arm and fielding skills underwhelmed most of the scouts, with 28 of Major League Baseball’s 30 teams represented.

As an American League scout told USA TODAY Sports’ Bob Nightengale, “It was a complete waste of time. It was like watching an actor trying to portray a baseball player.’’

(The scout requested anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly about his assessment.)
Big deal he hit a hr in low A ball which is a long ways from even AA pitching. I highly doubt he will ever see a major league field unless the Mets bring him up as a publicity stunt next September.

Tebow had a stellar career in college but he could not carry the jock straps of the many gridiron giants from the forgotten generation!
