Right on. Tebow is a model American citizen and media and other folks like to trash him every chance they get. The guy has my respect and wish my sons grow up like him. Would you rather the tebow son or the aaron hernandez son?

I think Timmy has gotten on Jesus' bad side for some reason. Professional sports seem to hate him.

Something tells me you are too involved in baseball.
you can't miss development in ANY sport. Hell, what is "easier" to develop than running? But as a runner, I can certainly tell you that you have to train months on end for a half marathon or marathon. And when you take months off, you are not going out and run what you can do after a lot of training.

How do you explain Bo Jackson not playing football for five years but still being able to dominate in the NFL from the first moment he stepped on the NFL field?

You can miss development in sport...like natural ability in certain explosive sports...like football, maybe soccer, basketball.
You can't miss the skill that evolves year from year in baseball. The pitching...the hitting.
All I'm saying is I took a year off from football in high school...was no big deal - I was even better with more size. I took two years off from organized basketball - no big deal - I shot at home and was fine as a senior.
I took one year off from baseball and the sport felt like a foreign object.
Hitting a baseball isn't shooting a basketball or running a football. You can't inhibit that incremental growth year by year with long absences.

Nice facts

Okay, I see that he missed a little less than two years. That's still a long layoff. There's no way a college basketball player could miss two years of basketball and then come back and dominate in the NBA from day one like Bo Jackson did in football.

Ouch. I thought he was killing it.
No. That was his college teammate, but I hear that his career is dead now as well.

This may even be lower quality baseball than you find in the upper tiers of the SEC (usually equivalent to A ball type quality of play).
it's not. Low A ball is quite a bit better than the highest levels of SEC baseball.

Still better than his pro QB stats. Dude had a 47% completion percentage.
Also lit the NFL's best pass defense up for 316 and a playoff win.

Tennis is #1, requiring constant practice to retain eye and touch.
Basketball 2nd.
Football not even in same discussion.
Tebow had months to stretch out, hit batting practice, and take fielding practice.
Baseball is solid # 3 for hitting. Pitching is tied for first.

That about sum it up?

Hadn't played in almost a decade before he decided to give it a try. And people are shocked he's not killing it right out of the box?
Yet you sucked him off when he went yard first at bat.

Saw him play twice and each at bat was a strikeout.
Most people sat out in the RF bleachers because, he was playing RF. He wasn't bad in the field. This was in memphis, so these were all opposing fans doing this.

He missed a year and a half basically and rushed for 554 yards when he came back. You're acting like he transcended the game immediately. I guess Bryce Brown or Matt Flynn did too when they had late season domination.
