IFL receiver Johnny Lester flips over boards for insane touchdown (GIF)

Moments like these are astounding in the sporting world. If this doesn’t make the Sports Center Top 10, then I don’t know what should. This catch by indoor football league wide receiver Johnny Lester is incendiary.

For all the crap that Football leagues not named the NFL get, they produce a wonderful product. They produce great moments like this… and yes, this did in fact happen:

He somehow keeps his feet in bounds (i.e. in the boards) before hurling his body for a whirl. That’s what I call sacrificing the body. The amount of concentration, combined with recklessness, is incredible.

Everyone needs to go out and buy themselves a ticket to an Indoor League game. The level of competition, frankly, rivals that of an NFL preseason game. So if you feel like the energy is lacking in the 3rd and 4th quarters, think about what it’s like at a game like this one, where guys like Johnny Lester are throwing their bodies upside down.
