NFL Kickers With Two Left Feet!

I don't think I've been more frustrated watching NFL football as I was this weekend watching two crutch time games: one between the Minnesota Vikings and the Baltimore Ravens, and one between the New York Jets and the Buffalo Bills. In both games, the ball game boiled down to the kickers. And in both games....the kickers were boneheads and missed EASY kicks!! I was SO mad after watching Minnesota win their game against Baltimore, that I actually walked away cursing and mumbling to myself like a crusty old man. It was .38 seconds left in the game, the score is 31-33, Minnesota up. Baltimore has a chance to win it with a 3 pointer kick, and what does the kicker do?? Kicked the ball like a fifth grader! Right past the goal, far left. I think I could have kicked it better. Ridiculous. I really wanted the Vikings to lose too. And in the other game between the Jets and the Bills, they ended up going to over time because the dumb kicker missed another easy kick! Luckily, he got his chance to come back out and win it, but it would have been over if he would have done his thing like he was supposed to the first time.....where is the NFL recruiting these bunk kickers from?? Lead Foot University?? Geesh!
