A routine touchdown
I’m watching an NFL game with my dad several years ago. The offensive team has been moving the ball and faces a first and goal at the five. The quarterback drops back and throws a routine pass for a touchdown to the end who is wide open. The receiver goes through a series of elaborate dance moves and then spikes the ball as if he’d just won the super bowl. My dad leans forward, turns right to see me and with a look which is both amused and puzzled says “Artie, isn’t that what he’s supposed to do?”
