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.
That's as far as humanely-possible, but humans haven't reached that yet (hence why the record is only 63).

said it before and sticking with it, Evan is going to be good for two extra wins this year.

Well I like to picture Even like he’s a dirty old bum. And I’m about to walk by and kick him cuz he’s a dirty old bum, but then I get the feeling there’s something different about him.
And it’s Evan.

I like to think of Evan like with giant eagle's wings and singin' lead vocals for Lynyrd Skynyrd with like an angel band and i'm in the front row and i'm hammered drunk!
