    When I first saw these headlines, first thought, you gotta' be effing kidding me, no fkng way, another market ploy, for a guy trying to make money outside his SEC Nation and Sirius XM Sat Shows, a habitat for humanity TV gig also....

    Tebow pursuing career, key word pursuing....

    tho' according to Rosenthal, and others this isn't a hoax...even Gary Sheffield tweeted in:

    Statement from Brodie Van Wagenen, co-head of CAA Baseball

    “This may sound like a publicity stunt, but nothing could be further from the truth. I have seen Tim’s workouts, and people inside and outside the industry – scouts, executives, players and fans – will be impressed by his talent. As an agent, I have a genuine respect for how hard it is to succeed at the game of baseball and a true admiration for those who possess the talent to play it at the Major League level. Tim's tool set is real. His physicality is unique in professional baseball. His work ethic is unprecedented, and his passion for the game is infectious. He knows the challenges that lie ahead of him given his age and experience, but he is determined to achieve his goal of playing in the Major Leagues.”

    Statement from Chad Moeller, former Major League catcher who has been training Tim Tebow at Chad Moeller Baseball in Scottsdale

    “I am beyond impressed with Tim’s athleticism and swing, and it goes without saying that he has shown a high level of discipline and strong work ethic. I see bat speed and power and real baseball talent. I truly believe Tim has the skill set and potential to achieve his goal of playing in the Major Leagues, and based on what I have seen over the past two months, it could happen relatively quickly."

    I don't see Tebow ever fulfilling any more of his dreams of playing any pro-sport, less badmitton, ping pong? Bolo Bats and tiddly winks?? Hop Scotch......

    Tebow needs to know when to say, "I'm done with, no one wan't my services, and I'm not Pro material, believe it or not Tim"....

    ..I now put Tebow in the same category as the Kardashians and Taylor Swift, Bruce Jenner, and Miley fucking Cyrus.
