NFT: Tebow

I'm certainly no Tebow maniac, but I have nothing against him either.
Just interesting that everyone was so quick to bash him and the Mets for his "undeserving" promotion to Advanced Class A St. Lucie in June, yet 20 games later he's batting .308 with 3 HRs, 3 2Bs and a 3B.

That would be true in another sport like football. What does being athletically immature have to do with hitting a baseball?


You keep talking about player's peak age this entire thread, even grandstanding about posting a link, yet it only applies to when players are declining, not ascending to their peak?

You do realize that a peak by definition has an upslope and a downslope next to it, right? Or are we going to spew some more happy horseshit about hitting a baseball being difficult as if it has age limiters built in?
What in the fuck..

LOL. I said he was passed his peak. You and your buddy flat out said 30 and higher was the peak. Now you want to change more goal posts and shift more arguments.
This is beyond tiresome...

Can we be done with this pissing match yet?
I'm not changing..

anything. I'm saying that 30 is closer to 26-28 than 19-21 is.

Or is being past a peak somehow more indicative of not hitting a ball than still climbing to the peak?

You really seem to be shitty at grasping pretty simple concepts.

Your whole position here is that we are in the midst of watching an ancient 30 year old compete at baseball's lowest level and that it is the most compelling story ever.

"Most compelling story ever". More hyperbole and bullshit... blah..blah... blah...

These are your exact words:

I don't think you realize that most of the responses here are due to the original hyperbole you foisted out there.

I feel strangely like we are getting trolled by the old BBI "z" rule here.

if he weren't part of the Mets organization it wouldn't come close to entering the "greatest story in sports history" realm.
