[00:32.06]There’s a moment of orderly silence
[00:34.10]before a football play begins.
[00:35.90]Players are in position, linemen are frozen,
[00:38.92]And anything’s possible.
[00:45.04]Then, like a traffic accident, staff begins to randomly collide.
[00:50.18]From the snap of the ball to the snap of the first bone
[00:52.92]Is closer to four seconds than five.
[01:03.94]One mississippi.
[01:05.30]Joe Theismann, the redskins quarterback
[01:07.56]Takes the snap and hands off to his running back.
[01:11.63]Two mississippi.
[01:13.35]It’s a trick play, a flea flicker,
[01:15.76]And the running back tosses the ball back to the quarterback.
[01:21.63]Three mississippi.
[01:22.89]Up to now the play’s been defined
[01:24.98]by the what the quarterback sees.
[01:27.13]It’s about to be defined by what he doesn’t.
[01:31.36]Four mississippi.
[01:32.66]Lawrence Taylor is the best defensive player in the NFL
[01:36.44]And has been from the time he stepped onto the field as a rookie.
[01:48.06]He will also change the game of football as we know it.
