he brings value.   his stats won't be awesome, but he will make them some $ and get their minor league team lots of coverage.

How far is Port St Lucie from Gainesville? Will his groupie fans and middle-aged boosters make the drive?

3 hours, but Tebow is a hero all over this state.

The Mets’ QB-turned-outfielder is 0-for-9 at the plate thus far in the Arizona Fall League after a brief stint in the instructional league last month. And the scouts are anything but impressed by his bat, glove or arm. A sampling of their analysis from the New York Daily News:

* “It’s what they signed up for. Nobody is surprised by this, are they? Come on, it’s been, um, interesting.”

* “He ran into [the outfield wall] like Bugs Bunny would have. I haven’t seen that before.”

* “It’s as if he hasn’t played the game in a decade. Oh wait, he hasn’t.”

* “He runs bad routes, has slow jumps and well below average arm strength.”

Tebow, 29, will not be in action this weekend, due to his college football analyst duties with ESPN. And even his co-workers there haven’t been kind. Here’s Keith Law’s analysis:

“Tim Tebow is in the Arizona Fall League. He might be better suited to playing in an Arizona high school league. His presence here is a farce, and he looks like an imposter pretending to have talent he does not possess.”

This isn't surprising - the AFL is not for someone of his level of experience.

JOKE...Te-blow.

As a life long season ticket holder I find it a mockery. Where is he playing? Granderson in right, Cespedes in center and Comforto in left. Throw in Jay Bruce and there you go. Eff Tebow.
