Baseball requires one to master several distinctly different skills in order to succeed. Take Michael Jordan for example: even this dummy took one look at his swing and knew he didn't have a chance. And if I saw what I saw then so did the real baseball experts. Publicity stunt all the way. Same was true with Tebow's attempt at baseball.
Tight end is an entirely different animal than trying to master high-end baseball or NFL-level QB skills. Tebow's mistake when he was younger was to absolutely refuse to accept anything but a QB position. He'd probably have made a solid NFL HB/FB or TE end (heck, he might have been able to play LB) but he dug his heels in and it cost his career.
I'm actually not much of a Tim Tebow fan, but I'm certainly not willing to dismiss the notion that he can still play in the NFL.
