Ahhhh now we can really get everything right...
We can determine the roling friction of the ball on the rails...
make a stab at the angular momentum of the ball...
determine the end velocity....both at the point of departure from the rails
and when it strikes the floor... ( which might be important in determining what will happen to it after the strike...)

ooops the physics teacher in me is showing.... sorry...

I do wonder... Evan... do you think that by using the trident, a human player could increase the initial velocity of the ball? and thus change this point of impact? We had no field out here in Seattle...did you observe anything like this on your kickoff field?
