[net.sport.football] 2-point thrown field goal

sab@houca.UUCP (12/22/83)

Crossing the 50 would put a team in scoring position???
I would like to meet the guy who can throw a ball so that
it is still ten feet off the ground 60+ yards downfield.

Besides, what would we do with a bunch of little unemployed
Europeans?

Regarding the ability to throw a football so that it is still ten feet
of the ground at 60+ yards:
When I was a freshman at UC Berkeley I saw a member of my dorm do just
that repeatedly. He has since gone on to bigger things; he's
the starting quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons, Steve Bartkowski.
I've never seen another arm throw that well. He was also very good
at throwing water balloons of the top floor, but that's another story.

I saw someone at my graduate school throw 60+ yards and keep the
ball off the ground: John Elway.  He might not mind the 2-point
thrown field goal so much.
