Risk and Reward of Ultimate Passes
In Jim Parinella's special Ultimate feature, InsideOut, he wrote:
"There is an acceptable level of risk associated with most passes, with this risk depending on the game situation, the skill of the thrower an receiver, the inherent risk of the pass and how that pass fits within the guidelines of what we call 'good choices'."
Later in the article, Parinella speaks to a "well-prepared player" with: "You may work out your body so that execution errors are minimized, but you also have to work your head so that mental errors are minimized."
