Check This Crazy Stuff Out
Just saw this video of Jason Campbell. Pretty wild stuff. From what I am told, he actually did this on the second take.
I've been pretty swamped, so if you guys have already been chatting about this all week, and I am the last one to the party, sorry. But at the risk of the ridicule, here it is:

Okay, who thinks this is real? I am just enough of a rube to actually buy it. Others here in the media room, especially The Mad Bogger, Dan Steinberg, the Brandon Lloyd of NFL experts, say no flippin' way. Calls BS on it. Sez it's totally fake. I got JC's back, I'm buying in, he wouldn't deceive us, would he?

Most of the other Fantasy Files are fake. They have one of Andre Johnson running about 70 yards in 3 seconds, for example.

I'm still skeptical, although Campbell's is definitely one of the videos that could have been real.

I'm betting it's real, just not the non-chalant that it's made out to be. Probably a few takes (or a few more) and editing.

Its kind of like a woman that has had implants ... you know that they are not 100% real - but you still appreciate they way they look, feel ...
As for JC's video, I'd like to believe its real. With enough takes, I could see this happen. Nevertheless, I do appreciate the nice tight spiral and the distance he threw it.

Love the annology! It is dead on and nice to visualize.
I say not real.
Even thought Kelly Johnson reported that the Redskins PR rep was on the field when when Campbell shot the comercial "in two takes".
I think he shot the commercial in two takes. But all it he had to do was get the intro right, toss two balls in the correct trajectory, and do the a good closing. Then they took that footage back and the mirracle of CGI took over.
The odds of him hitting the other football is incredible and then to have the two balls fall in the right area. I would think the odds of hitting the lottery would be better.
But hey, they said he did it!

Their past is spotty.

Fake but cool, that video is very fake, why, the balls go out of shot and come back and aren't very focused, they are just greyish blobs. Of course its possible, but that didn't happen on that shot.

Guys, I called and spoke to Jason this morning. He said everything in that clip is real and really happened in real life.
What? I'm serious. It's real.
For real.
