Hijack time...What about baseball players? Could anyone else in the majors do what Vlad did at Yankee Stadium?

He threw a baseball from the 3rd base foul line into the stands in right field.

No one had an arm like Bo Jackson. i saw him throw at guys at the plate on the fly from the CF warning track in Kc....multiple times. One of them is a famous highlight, they used to show it all the time on espn.

Only the best QBs can throw it through the goalposts from the 50 yard line. On their knees.

Ray Guy used to do that.

At the Rose Bowl, I once saw Bill Brasky throw a full Gatorade Cooler from the bench to the press box. Without spilling a drop!

I once remember hearing that pudge could throw it from behind the centerfield fence all the way to the plate in the air.

Just for the record I was making fun of Kyle Boller/the Ravens here and don't actually believe that.
