With a leg powerful to kick a football a quarter mile, Eddy Piñeiro is going to be kicking on Sunday’s in the near future. You heard it here first. Ok, you probably heard it a million other places first, but I’m probably the best-looking person who has predicted it, so that should count for something.
Yesterday, Piñeiro posted the video below to his Twitter. It shows him bombing an 81-yard field goal in full pads (minus a helmet) at practice. That is a pretty damn far distance to kick a football.
81 yarder with pads on. No excuses! Ready for the season to start🐊🏈@GatorsFB @FloridaGators pic.twitter.com/5IeZ0tXyhn

Damn, that didn’t even look all that impressive. To be honest, it didn’t even look like he kicked it hard enough to travel 50 yards let alone 81. Or maybe I am just hating because I went to the University of Miami and I fucking hate the Florida Gators? Could be that, but I’ll never tell.
