Right. Plays are different from attempts.
Let's not get this thing twisted. |

"Throwing for 60 plays" There's no way to twist that. Mecca himself said the number was exaggerated. I understood the quote. YOU...um...did not.

Quote is a verb. Quotation is a noun. |

Yes, like a verb. It's a colloquialism in speech, but not an accepted form in formal writing. Trust me. Key here being the word "formal." Drop this. I goofed the quotation--but disagreeing with me on this is dumber than my initial smart-ass reply. |

Not arguing, just saying... If you're going to bother correcting someone... A little fact-checking might help. Just sayin...

The whole point of his comment is to stress balance, that's what you want and it's extremely hard to be balanced when you are in shotgun every play.
