How far can you throw that football?

2 feet, if the wind was blowing in the right direction

I bet you I could throw it up over them mountains! If only coach would have put me in, we would have been state champions.

Excellent question! I was a pick up football king back in the day and before the tennis elbow!

How far...hmmmm?

Probably 50 yards with a little less accuracy. More than that if I just hauled back and let go. But that was a few years back. Now I;d have trouble bending over and picking the ball up!

I'm not very familiar with the American game, but is there any actual kicking of the ball involved in American football?

I was going to say the same thing, Uncle Rico!

Now where's my mini sailboat that comes with the 32 piece set?

From the opposite end diagonally of the field John Elway off balance and on the run could toss a football 60 yards easily to accurately hit a reciever down field. His arm strength is legendary.
