</p> | |||
<ul><li>To the football-savvy, yardage totals in the thousands tend to imply a season total. | |||
</li><li>By way of example, 2004 top rated NFL quaterback Peyton Manning threw for 4557 yards. | |||
</li><li>Kids (and Li'l Brudders) want to be "just like" famous athletes (e.g. NFL quarterbacks) when they "grow up." | |||

<p><b>Arguments against:</b> | |||
<br/><i>"I'm gonna be a quarterback when I grow up! I'm gonna throw for 2,000 yards!"</i> | |||
</p> | |||
<ul><li>Nowhere does he say NFL quarterback. | |||
</li><li>Nowhere does he say the yards would come in one season; he could have meant in one game. | |||
</li><li>It wasn't even really Li'l Brudder speaking. | |||

<p><b>Additional comments:</b> | |||
</p> | |||
<ul><li>Even if it <i>is</i> a season total, so what? He's got one leg! If he threw for <i>two</i> yards that would still be impressive. | |||
</li><li>The fact is just trying to say that Lil' Brudder isn't aiming as high as he thinks he is, which I guess isn't surprising! | |||
<ul><li>Right, but if it's interpreted as being in one game, which seems equally as valid, then he's aiming quite high indeed! | |||
