McPherson is so good ...

Someone did a video on how far a ball can be possibly kicked, by a human and I believe it was 69 yards or something; it's like how you can only make an engine with so much horsepower: it's impossible to go over a certain amount.

So 69 yds. out then instead of 70....

When Naismith invented basketball and set the goal at 10 feet, he did so that the goal would have be tossed in to, instead of thrown or dunked, ala Duck on a Rock. Of course, back then your centers were 6'2, forwards were 6' and guards were usually 5' something. Now we have 6'5"-7 footers all over the place and the whole league plays above the rim.

It'll be the same with kickers. I remember a friend of the family, Danny Shepherd, who kicked for UC way back when and the big deal made when he won a game with a 50 yarder. Now almost everyone can hit from 50.

Same with golf and the PGA courses having to "Tiger proof" them and make them longer.
