Only three real things we should be worried about

TheMalcolmConnection · 07-10-2006, 11:01 AM

Just to clear some stuff up, I read an article somewhere that stated that John Hall was misdiagnosed with a "strain" multiple times last year and still managed to kick when he had something FAR more serious. Word is, he had surgery to fix the REAL problem and now he's back, he's strong and ready to go for the year.

re-injured, but he never completely healed to begin with, so it was when, not if. should be good now, i hope.

According to all sources, it was being diagnosed as a strain when it was really a part of his leg getting separated. I've read that he is back to full strength.

Hall is a probowl caliber kicker. This year we will need him to win quite a few games for us, so he better stay healthy.

only 2 kickers go to the PB right? if so, hall isn't anywhere close to pro bowl caliber. that's for vinetari and akers unless someone goes nuts or they get injured.

What about Rackers? There are plenty of kickers who could be considered pro-bowl caliber, it's just that only two make it.

read that part about going nuts

he had a great year, but up till then stunk horribly. If that's the case though, then there are 32 PB caliber kickers in the NFL, which means being PB caliber is meaningless.

Jose Cortez is the ONLY pro-bowl quality kicker in my mind (and heart)

The greatest kicker of all time was Andre Kristacovitchlalinski, Jr. Everyone knows that!

Just Google the name. You'll laugh, you'll cry, then you'll laugh again.

You can never, ever associate the nuts above with N. Rackers.

Our 3 worries for 2006:

1. Kickoffs
2. Field Goals
3. Extra Points

We won't be punting much so I'm not concerned about that.
