@deepbluecea @SkyeHawk11 Thanks. I originally solved this only for the N-S case. And in retrospect, should not have issued that constraint in my tweet. — PolitiTweet.org

Fascinating (to me) Fun Football Fact: If you throw a perfect spiral, with high arc, aerodynamics will force a football, initially pitched upwards, to change angle after reaching its peak height, and pitch downward on arrival into the arms of the pass receiver. https://t.co/MR880pL5Ci — PolitiTweet.org

Not that anybody asked, but the Raymond James Stadium, home to #SuperBowl LV, is oriented precisely north-south in the Northern Hemisphere. This means the Coriolis Force from Earth’s rotation will deflect any 50-yard kick, nearly 1/2 inch to the right. I’m just sayin’. — PolitiTweet.org

Conversely, a football inflated on Venus to 13 pounds per square inch (@NFL regulation), when brought to Earth, would instantly explode. https://t.co/kXq2V5umXL — PolitiTweet.org

If you were to play football on planet Venus, then all 22 players would rapidly vaporize in the high-temperature atmosphere, 50% hotter than a Pizza Oven. Ignoring that complication, an Earth-inflated football would instantly flatten from the atmospheric pressure — 100x Earth’s. https://t.co/77at28Ctws — PolitiTweet.org

Proper uses of the word Super: Super Duper, Supercharged, Super Bowl, Superman, Supergirl, Supernova, Superconductivity, Super Mario. — PolitiTweet.org

With Buffalo Wings high on people’s food choices today, I’m compelled to offer my annual reminder that #SuperBowl Sunday is a bad day to be a Chicken in America. The USA raises nine-billion chickens per year. If you do the math, we eat a million chickens per hour. https://t.co/TGDfV0UMUl — PolitiTweet.org

The sun-like star Gliese 570, of spectral classification K5V, is in a triple star system 19 light years away. Right about now, aliens on any planets in that star system are receiving the TV signals, just arriving, of Tom Brady winning his first Super Bowl in 2002, 19 years ago. https://t.co/sRQ6UMqwpo — PolitiTweet.org

I don’t want to call Tom Brady old, but since 1977, the year he was born, seven new subatomic particles have been discovered, including the Gluon, the Top Quark, the Tau Neutrino, and the Higgs Boson. — PolitiTweet.org

Is Tom Brady charmed? Born in Menlo Park, CA, just down the road from the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center — where physicists explore the building-blocks of matter. In 1976, the year before Tom Brady was born, SLAC was awarded the Nobel Prize for discovering the “Charmed Quark” — PolitiTweet.org

In his career Tom Brady has passed for 91,452 yds (scoring 661 touchdowns along the way.) That’s the equivalent of a single offensive drive against 11 players who try to stop you, on a football field nearly 53 miles long. About the diameter of the rayed crater Tycho on the Moon. https://t.co/3ZyYxowmii — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Brady is old — for a football player. Back in 1977, when he was born, there were only 107 (out of 118) known elements on the Periodic Table. — PolitiTweet.org

Tom Brady was the 199th pick in the 2000 NFL draft. Which tells me that occasionally, if not often, people assessing your future potential based on past performance don’t know shIt about anything. — PolitiTweet.org

With his tenth appearance in today’s 55th Super Bowl, Tom Brady has played in nearly 20% of them, while most players there ever were, have appeared in 0%. — PolitiTweet.org

If Carey Mulligan & Mario Lopez conceived a baby, it might have dimples so deep, they warp the spacetime continuum, opening a portal to a parallel universe. https://t.co/lkpQHHtoRE — PolitiTweet.org
