  • Not a review, but given how "snap" is a bit of a specialist term that may not be well-known to non-gridiron fans (meaning general worldwide audiences), it might be for the best to go with ALT0. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 02:22, 28 December 2024 (UTC)


General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.
Overall: nice hook! Approving ALT0; I agree with Narutolovehinata5 — at least, I don't know what a snap is. Skyshiftertalk 15:32, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
