My 16-year-old son, who is on his high school football team, FINALLY acknowledged to me that he knows I'm the one who taught him how to throw a football spiral! He has been disputing this for years.
No, his team is not playing during Covid. But they do have no-contact practices now.
My football background: at 10, I was regularly breaking my glasses playing football on my street with neighborhood boys. I learned how to throw a spiral by watching Terry Bradshaw do a short TV tutorial. I lost my interest in middle school, when I landed wrong on one knee. Nope.
My son asked me to throw a football with him today in our yard. He's now 6'3" and 230 pounds.
This photo is from when he was getting tips from me at age 10. At 16, today HE had some pointers on MY spiral lol.

Postscript: I'm a lifelong football fan who hasn't been able to stomach the NFL since Kaepernick. *sigh*
