Can someone explain to me why Tim Tebows baseball career in low Single A has to be publicized more than the actual MLB?
The dude isn't a baseball player

Because the networks knew you would come to TD and whine about it.

Because it's ESPN, it's what they do. And because of their shittiness in thinking they know what we want, people will now get pissed at tebow although he hasn't even done anything. Same as it's been for 10 years.

so what he hits a home run in his first at bat? What about the other players in Low A that have done that. Where's their publicity? It's just ridiculous it's carried on for this long

ESPN is sorry for wasting 2 minutes of your precious time.

So it isn't a sports story if a guy that hasn't played organized baseball in over a decade until last year went oppo off a guy that likely has been dedicated to baseball since he was 5yrs old?

no clue, but i'll act like I know what i'm talking about


baseball has a star power issue. if they had a bigger star than tim tebow they'd be talking about him

I can name one baseball player...Bryce harper. oh and Jason howard but for the wrong reasons.

why do you think playstation put Griffey on the cover of their game? it's hard to market foreign players who don't speak English to a primarily white audience.


I just made all of that up

is it? i'll give him credit though...he's a talented guy just not cut out for any pro sports league it seems. kim Kardashian has no talent and she's more famous and gets more coverage than tebow.


since I completely stopped watching sports except for the super bowl over which I had no choice, the only 2 things I've heard about are lavar ball, tim tebow and tom brady's missing jersey.

honest to god. if I weren't making an effort at chit chat I wouldn't even know who won the national title game.

also I peruse this board. so I hear lavar ball, lavar ball, lavar ball. lebron is sitting...the only player in the draft I can name is leonard fournette and there's some guy the patriots won't draft.

i didn't even want to watch the super bowl. 2 women made me i shouldn't admit that.

Because you just started a thread about him.

So what exactly is the point of being on the more sports board if you don't watch sports? Just curious.

The other players in Low A aren't celebrities like Tim Tebow is. It's similar to the coverage Tiger gets in golf. He's not even close to the player he once was, but his celebrity status will get him tons of coverage even if he is not even close to contention. It's also rather impressive that Tebow has had moderate success considering his peers have been far more dedicated to baseball over the last decade than he has.
