When a quarterback throws a pass (perfect spiral), the axis of rotation
appears to remain tangent to the arc of travel.
   There would have to be some unbalanced torque acting on the ball to create
this rotation.  The axis of the ball should remain at the same angle, landing
pointing up instead of down like it does.
  Why do you think this happens?
