The 2 Minute Drill
at 2006-01-05 09:08:31

For those of you who are football fans, you'll enjoy this analogy. As a young college baseball coach, a few of my buddies were football coaches. One of my best friends eventually became a head football coach in the Southeastern Conference.

After we finished with practice, I would zip off over to the football practice field to catch the final few minutes of football practice. At the end of every practice, the football team would work on the "two minute drill".

The drill is really fascinating to watch. The "two minute drill" is an offense a team incorporates in the final two minutes of the game in hopes to score a touchdown and win the game.

What is really fascinating about the drill, is how rapidly the offense moves the football from one end of the field to the other in a very short period of time. Being the inquisitive person that I am, I asked my coaching friend why teams didn't use the two minute offense the entire game. Boy, if they can move the football 60 or 80 yards in less than two minutes, think how many points they could score if they used it the entire game.

My friend did tell me that more points are scored during the two minute offense than any other time during the game. Unfortunately, the drill is also dangerous because the rate of turning over the football is also very high.

Many are betting that Wall Street is getting ready to start its on version of the "two minute drill" in the weeks ahead. Maybe, they have already started, and the ball has been intercepted.
