There’s the safe back pass to the keeper to clear the ball. There’s the brilliant and clever back (body part) pass by Ronaldinho. But now there's something more, we have Blanco’s pass with his own back side.
Yes the ‘ass’ pass. Skip to the end of the video below to see the highlight clip. The pass is at the 10 minute mark. Sure, Blanco's got a bit more 'ass' to shield the ball with but you probably didn't think he could use it to pass. I wonder if Kim Kardashian could use her booty like this.
There’s a fitness guru and sports consultant named Roger Spry, he’s a guy that’s all for the unorthodox and let’s say ginga that’s part of the game of soccer. Why do something that requires you to use more energy when you can do something simple?
Why spin and turn to pass the ball with your foot when you can use your back, your shoulder, your heel and even your ass. Why kill the fluidity of a play to trap the ball when all it takes is a simple touch to keep it going. Next time you receive a ball in the air, and it goes right to your mid section, try hitting the ball with your thigh, volley like, to keep the play going.
Hat tip to The Offside Rules for pointing me to the video. If I can find a video with just the ass pass I'll post it.
