Last night at football practice, as the line, returners, and rest of us practiced in groups, the old security gaurd at the high school where we practice came tottering onto the field. He watched us run routes for a while, then tottered over to the line and inspected them, then came back onto our mini-scrimmage field and asked about the returners practicing, specifically about our long snapper. He used to play that position in semi-pro and wanted to give her some advice on how to get the ball to spiral.
So he tottered down to the girls and started talking to Amy, showing her how to spiral the ball, she twice as big as this tiny man that looked like he would snap in half when he bent over to snap the ball. But damn if it wasn't the prettiest spiral-snapped ball I've ever seen.
