Whoa

UConn freshman Johnny McEntee can do some pretty damn impressive things with a football. I mean, who knows how many takes some of these took, but still. Via the Big Lead:

My friend Bill had a cannon for an arm and started at quarterback for our varsity team our freshman year — the first time that ever happened at our high school. And every day before practice he’d stand outside the locker room entrance and throw a few footballs at a garbage can that was probably 45 yards away. He hit the can a bunch of times but I’m not sure he ever made it in. I wasn’t there to witness it, but Bill maintains that one day Mike Ryan — remember Mike Ryan? — walked by and asked him what he was aiming for. Bill said he was trying to get it in the garbage can, and Ryan took one try at it and nailed it. So goes local legend.
