It hasn’t exactly gone viral yet, but a video showing a child catching a football passed by presidential candidate Marco Rubio with his face is sure to garner a ton of retweets and likely some airtime.
Imma let you finish, but Marco Rubio hitting a kid in the face with a football is one of the best videos of all time https://t.co/ZbbxTxrWkN

@moody I've been saying this since 2008; GOP won't win White House until they learn how to hit receivers' outside shoulder on slant routes.

The Daily Beast’s Tim Mak has analyzed the video and has some campaign advice for Rubio.
The Rubio throwing motion is wack. Bring the elbow down more quickly, bro. And he didn't lead the kid enough! Up and behind him

@timkmak We should cancel debates and hold contests of football throwing, beer drinking, and that hand motion politicians do during speeches

Rubio's football seemed a little deflated too, if we're being honest.

Will Rubio’s pass cause voters to take a pass, or win him support? The debate has begun.

@timkmak still catchable. Blame the kid's stone hands.
