I just happened to turn the TV on and caught that part of halftime of the SEC championship. Did anybody else see this?
 
Anyway, they introduce the two kids, they both look like decently athletic guys. They have to throw a football through a target from a certain distance as many times as they can within some time period.
 
Where it got interesting is that they one kid completely demolished the other kid. The losing kid didn't even do badly. He hit on most of his throws it looked like. He was so much slower though because he was throwing proper football passes. Pick the ball up, find the laces, wind up and pitch.
 
The winner though was rifling two handed chest passes at the target. He saved so much time doing it that way because it was a much more compact motion, got into a rhythm, and just ran away with the tuition money. 
 
Anyway, wanted to point it out because I thought the kid was brilliant. I haven't ever seen that approach in a contest like that, but afterwards it made total sense. The objective is to throw as many footballs through the target as possible. Tight spirals don't matter. Having NFL look-a-like mechanics doesn't matter. Just hit the target as much as you can, as fast as you can, and at least in this case throwing two handed chest passes is the way to go.
