ATLANTA FALCONS PREPARED FOR SUPER BOWL BY PLAYING PING PONG
When the NFL season started, very few people expected the Atlanta Falcons to be in the Super Bowl.
Well, according to the coaches and players in Atlanta, one big reason they’re in the big game is ping pong.
In order to keep things loose and to build comradery, head coach Dan Quinn installed three ping pong tables in the locker room.
Sure enough, the players played. A lot. And bonded. They also enjoyed some benefits in their hand-eye coordination.
So here they are, one game away from being world champions, with some thanks to their habit of hitting a little white plastic ball back and forth.(TV Over Mind)
