Li'l Brudder's remark about throwing for 2,000 yards as an NFL quarterback is only 125 yards a game. A good player can throw twice that.

From: crying

Arguments for:

To the football-savvy, yardage totals in the thousands tend to imply a season total.
By way of example, 2004 top rated NFL quaterback Peyton Manning threw for 4557 yards.
Kids (and Li'l Brudders) want to be "just like" famous athletes (e.g. NFL quarterbacks) when they "grow up."

Arguments against:
"I'm gonna be a quarterback when I grow up! I'm gonna throw for 2,000 yards!"

Nowhere does he say NFL quarterback.
Nowhere does he say the yards would come in one season; he could have meant in one game.
It wasn't even really Li'l Brudder speaking.

Additional comments:

Even if it is a season total, so what? He's got one leg! If he threw for two yards that would still be impressive.
The fact is just trying to say that Lil' Brudder isn't aiming as high as he thinks he is, which I guess isn't surprising!
- Right, but if it's interpreted as being in one game, which seems equally as valid, then he's aiming quite high indeed!
