So it's enough to move 2 oz. worth of material? Is that what I should be taking from that?
Yeah, pretty much.
In a general sense, 100N = (about) your average, normal hit from a football player.

Re: wrong
I agree with what you said.
But I'm not sure if what I said was wrong, though... or even if it conflicts with what you said?
I agree that what I said was not "the whole picture," though, if that's your point.
I was just trying to give a back-of-the-napkin feeling for "Newtons" for most people to try and understand them.
It's not my fault that most football player's hits are not constant...
