There’s been a lot of swinging and missing from Tim Tebow so far.
(Yes I realize that was sort of a bringing a knife to a gunfight scenario, but it is what it is.)
Honestly, this looks like Tebow is a former last kid off the bench on his high school baseball team now trying to impress his girlfriend at his beer league softball game by aiming for the fences every swing.
Tim, just stop this.
But if you insist on continuing with this silly experiment, let me give you a few pointers.
Welcome to Danny Ballgame’s Coaching Academy:
First of all, that load up is way too intense. Stop moving your arms back and forth between your chest and home plate.
Second, has no one ever told you to tuck your elbow as you swing? Stop flailing around like a chicken.
Third, head down; eye on the ball. Swing down, not up. This is basic stuff here Tim.
And, what’s up with not “squishing the bug” with your front foot? THAT’S THE MOST FUN PART. Not to mention, the easiest to remember.
Finally, why are your legs so far apart when you finish your swing?
End rant.
I knew his swing stunk when I saw the video, but I actually didn’t even realize how much I hated it until I started writing this.
Hopefully, you’re still a big Jesus guy Tim, you’re going to need a miracle.
PS Somebody get this guy a damn Tom Emanski video STAT.
