real footballs

[fatty fat fat]

they are huge. i always avoid them as i don't think i can throw them very far.

[scoops callahan]

me too.. when i'm tailgating i always use the youth ones.

one time, while sitting in the NEZ, I threw back an extra point and was impressed with myself for being able to throw a big boy football so well.   It wasn't nearly as hard as I thought it would be.   Give it a shot; I think you'll be surprised with yourself.

Proper grip . . . no problem.  I agree, try it . . . it doesn't hurt or anything bad like that.

Legends room? 
 

[Saulbadguy]

Yep, absolutely terrified of having to throw the football back to the trainer guys in the SEZ.  Usually just give it to a kid.

Yes.  Really makes an impression when picking one up and remembering what some of our past QB's could do with one.  I mean, the power needed....

I have one that was kicked into the NEZ last year.

WTF why would you take your mothers hands?

They are really big.  Junior high sized footballs are the best.

Real footballs are hard to kick, right?  Like way harder than a FIFA approved size 5 soccer ball.  On that note how come before a kick-off the kicker is always trying to push in the points of a football?  It's not like he can possibly deform the ball into the plastic range of deformation and effect some permanent, or even temporary change.  All deformations in this instance are merely elastic and no results can possibly be realized.

It would be funny if the points never popped back out.

really makes you stop and think differently about queso, queso-haters.

Not really.  He couldn't throw very far and his spiral looked shockingly similar to mine. 

[HeinBallz]

FWIW, I have tiny hands.   Like embarrassingly tiny hands.   Ring size 8 tiny hands.   And throwing a real football was much easier than I thought it would.

Tiny hands are great by the way.  I love having tiny hands.


They're perfect for working on cars & playing guitars, which I'm good at neither. <---------- should be a country song.

  I thought it was the opposite for guitars. Like how Hendrix could wrap his thumb around the bridge and play the top E string.

Side Question: If you were tailgating before a game with Jimi Hendrix and he wanted to play catch with you, but he only had a full size football (because of his huge hands), would you turn down the opportunity or would you go ahead and play knowing you would throw horribly and embarrass yourself? I think Jimi would be so laid back that he wouldn't care. He would just want the Cats to win.

well I'm not good at playing guitars... may be something to it.   But I couldn't imagine hitting individual strings without wide ass banana fingers messing everything up.   I imagine big hands with slender fingers would be good though. 

I would totally play catch with Jimi.   If you can't laugh at yourself, You're a big rough ridin' loser.
