It really sucks how much importance they've not put on the kicker's leg.

Since we lost out on Forbath, I saw that Randy Bullock is from Louisiana. Who lives close to there to pick him up today?

Why the NFL and fans wanted to make kickers more important, I'll never understand.

It has also caused that leaping over the blockers move that is becoming popular.

Mike Brown: "Someone tell Nugent that if he misses 13 or 14 more PATs, he's out of here!"

Marv?
I wouldnt use the steelers as an example. Their 2 point conversion rate isnt stellar and they were 0-4 last week against dallas.

I don't think it had anything to do with the fans. They should stop messing with all the damn rules and leave the game alone.
