Like it or **t, former college football star and Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow is back. Only this time he's **t leading logic-defying comebacks (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulIUy066qBE) on the football field or staring in his personal meme (http://mashable.com/2011/12/16/tebowing/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial) — he's playing baseball.

That's right, what seemed like a giant joke on Twitter (http://mashable.com/2016/08/09/tim-tebow-baseball/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial) just a few weeks ago has become reality. After spending the past four years in **n-athletic purgatory, Tebow signed a mi**r league contract with the New York Mets, the ball club confirmed Thursday morning. He'll begin his professional career with the Amazins instructional league team in Port St. Lucie, Florida.
