Drew Brees – Marvel of Modern Science
For you football/physicists out there, here’s a fascinating evaluation of New Orleans Saints’ QB Drew Brees.
The host of ‘Sports Science‘ clearly considers Brees to be a short-haired Legolas incarnate. And while his accuracy feats are impressive, I would consider another pool of athletes before crowning him the most accurate in the world. After all, major league pitchers deal with a target about 20 yards away (60 ft, 6 in. to be exact), and the cream of the MLB crop have their own tales of mythical acumen.
Nevertheless, this is even more reason to root for America’s Sweetheart team this playoff run.
