Serious question:

I wonder how hard JRock could throw a baseball with a month of two of training from a good pitching coach?

He can throw a damn football the length of the field, I'd imagine he can easily hit mid-90's with a fastball. His motion would be so long though that I think batters would tee off on it.


This guy is sooooooo talented he could be a two-sport star IF he would get serious.

He stinks at his main sport and you act like with 2 months of training he is major league material.

The Rant is funny as shite.

A. He does not stink at his main sport. He was one of the best QBs LSU has ever had and was drafted #1 in the NFL. He got screwed with a shitty franchise that exacerbated his lazy tendencies. He wasn't even THAT bad in the pros in his limited action.

B. I don't think he is major league material at all. Never said that. You made it up. There are thousands of people that can throw a baseball in the 90s that aren't major league material. Jamarcus has arguably the strongest arm the sport of football has ever seen. Sorry for being curious about how hard he could throw if a pitching coach taught him how to wind up and properly pitch.

C. frick you, nanny nanny boo boo.

You suck at reading comprehension as much as you think he sucks at football.

Meh.

He wouldn't be major league material but I suspect he'd throw the ball major league hard. I wouldn't be surprised if he rode deep into the 90s.

Alas, being able to throw hard alone doesn't make you a major league pitcher. More likely, batters would simply fear for their lives.
