Inventors of the "back shoulder" throw?

Post by GiddyUp »

All of this was taught by Oilers head coach Jerry Glanville and assistants June Jones and Kevin Gilbride. It was practiced and called, both in the huddle and at the line with signals from Moon, such as a tug on the jersey or a pat on the helmet.

back -shoulder throw? an excuse from an inaccurate qb on an out pattern, as being the "intended" area thrown to...ask me how I know this.

If you are so eager to tell us, why not just tell us instead of imploring us to ask you?

teasing only...not out of eagerness or imploring to tell. I was the 'inaccurate' qb in high school. I tried to pass it off as 'less likely to be intercepted'. I am still picking pine splinters out of my backside because I was 'inaccurate' and 'slow'.

Bad try at humor. Sorry to rankle.
