I was sure someone would have posted by now. I searched for it but was not on here. Enjoy

Jerry Rice is walking down the streets of San Francisco when all of a
sudden he hears sirens coming from the next street down. He hurries
down the road to see what's happening and sees a huge fire engulfing
a 10 story building. And on the top floor, a lady is leaning out the
window shouting to the firemen below.
FIREMAN: Come on, lady, jump. We have the tarp here, we'll be able
to catch you.
LADY: No....I can't. My baby, my baby is up here.
FIREMAN: Throw the baby down, we'll catch him.
LADY: No, you'll miss. I can't leave my baby.
Jerry sees this and steps forward. "Hey, I think I can help. Let me
have the bullhorn."
JERRY: Hey lady, I'm Jerry Rice, the wide receiver for the San Francisco 49er's. I'm the best wide receiver in the game. I have more receptions and touchdowns than anyone. Trust me, throw your baby down and I'll catch him, this is what I do for a living.
Being a 49er fan herself, the lady recognizes Jerry and throws her baby
down to him. Just as she throws it though, a huge gust of wind comes
and takes the baby and starts to blow him off course. Jerry sees this
and takes off after the baby. He hurdles the line closing off the area,
fights through the crowd, dodges a couple of fire fighters, jumps over
the car, and dives forward, just making a fingertip catch of the baby.
The crowd around him goes wild and starts cheering his amazing catch.
So Jerry jumps to his feet, raises his finger into the air, does a two
step and then spikes the baby.

and for those that are footy fans here is a futbal version
David Seamen (Arsenal/England's old keeper) is walking down the street one day when he sees a woman screaming on the 10th floor of a burning building. The woman refuses to jump onto the waiting fireman trampoline below because she is convinced it will hurt her baby, which is in her arms.
"Drop your baby!" Yells the Fireman
"No it'll die!!" The nearly-inflamed woman yells back
"Drop it to me!!" Yells Seamen, "I was England's top goalie!!! I can catch your child without harm!"
After a moment of deliberation, the woman yells "OK" and on three, she lets the baby loose.
The surrounding crowd gasps with anticipation as the baby falls, but Seamen catches the baby with no problem, and without any harm to the baby at all.
The crowd cheers wildly, and Seamen waves, bounces the baby twice, and kicks it 40 yards down the road.
