The greatest athlete of all-time couldn't make free throws? I did hear he was a pretty good boxer.

If anyone says anyone but Jesse Owens they are so retarded it doesn't do any good to explain to them why
they are wrong because they are too retarded to comprehend they are that retarded in the first place.

Jim Thorpe

In the 1912 Olympics, he won gold in both the decathlon and pentathlon. He played 6 years of major league baseball, and he is a pro football hall of famer.
