This is probably the coolest thing you can do on a boat. Well, one of them anyway. Certainly the coolest thing you can do at over 40 mph on a boat.
The throw is, of course, accurate, but the catch is unreal.

If the South is a region of guards, the East is a region of men. Large men, that play an old school, physical brand of basketball. Guys like Demarcus Cousins, Kevin Jones, Damion James, Trevor Booker, and Al-Farouq Aminu, put the power in power forward.

If we can score, we have a chance. The Heat are a poor team in a mediocre conference this year and don’t come with a lot of fire power. The one thing they can do is play defense, holding teams to 95.2 points per game, 5th best in the NBA. Dorrell Wright returns from a

Work, I love Xavier. Really athletic team that feeds off of mismatches that superstar guard Jordan Crawford creates. Hell, he’s good enough to carry X past Minnesota and even Pitt if he’s hot.

Ag, cool, I agree with pretty much everything you say except your claim that you dictated tempo to UNM. But no biggie.
The reason I like Siena is that it’s basically the same team that beat Ohio State in the tourney last year and then played a 1 seeded Louisville team down to the wire.

Speaking of history, when was the last time Duke got out of the round of 16?
Villanova has something going on underneath the surface. They look beatable.
Baylor’s playing really good ball with really good players. I guess that’s why I picked them, but I’m probably overthinking things and should have written Duke in.

Why? Three seeds make it all the time? Put them in a bracket with the weakest 1 seed and one of the weaker 2 seeds and they have a great shot. Especially with two games in Houston.

That was awesome. It looked a hell of a lot faster from the boat.
So was the boat going 40 mph? I wonder what the true closing speed of the ball was at it made it to Shipley’s hands (ball speed from Colt’s arm + speed of the boat). Figure that with the angle of the toss and some trig thrown in – say 60 mph total speed?

[...] Throw to your wide receiver flying across the water at 40 mph all you like: the real wonder is in the clip above, where Tulsa’s Mike Bryan demonstrates the time-honored Okie fishing method of noodling, also known as “fishing for non-pussies.” Someday this concept will expand to grouper, tuna, and if you’re a real man, sharks.

For all you kids out there who think it would be cool to imitate Colt and Ship, don’t do this. It is dangerous. Running a boat at 40 mph that close to shore is insane. Standing up in a boat at 40 mph while you are concentrating on catching a football is insane. What happens if you lose your balance when the ride gets a little bumpy and you fall into the pilot? What happens if there is a carom on the ball and it ends up hitting the pilot in the face (at an effective speed > 40 mph)? There is a decent chance it could be disastrous.
