I got pretty good at kicking a stationary soccer ball 50 yards. If I'd discovered this talent earlier than my late 20s I might have tried walking on at the U of MT. Probably would have failed, but who knows?
Never got the hang of placekicking, it's very form dependent similar to a good golf swing but I could punt pretty well.

Hey, maybe the Panthers will do me a huuuge favor this weekend!
They'll be motivated to win, especially with the Buccaneers playing the eliminated Dolphins.

I was okay at punting, but never a standout.

A preseason bet on KC having 10 losses would have had GREAT odds.

You're welcome, Chicago Dog, fan of the NFC North CHAMPS!
As requested, Tyler Huntley:

8 CAR 60 YDS 7.5 AVG 0 TD, LONG 25

I keep rooting for the 'Fins and they keep letting me down. C'mon O Really, give us some extra mojo on behalf of the Panthers.

CBS
Go @Panthers (8-7) > Seahawks (12-3, -7)
C'mon 'Hawks, you're in and have the best NFC record, take a rest. Everybody, more nostalgic mojo, please.
EDIT: It's weird rooting against the 'Hawks. :(

Wow, I really get the early games that matter locally. Guess I'll have to surf back and forth (until the 'Hawks start stompin' :problem: )

4:25 PM FOX
Go @Bills (11-4, -1.5) > Eagles (10-5)
C'mon Bills, catch the Pats. Eagles already won the NFC East.

GO:

@Browns (3-12) > Steelers (9-6, only -3.5 :crazy: , there's hope)
Ravens are 8-8 after winning yesterday. There's hope.

Patriots (-13.5 :lol: ) > @ MAGA Jets
I know, I said I want the Bills to catch the Pats, but it's the MAGA Jets. No choice.
