Field Goal Kickers...................I mean Soccer players who strap up in pads.
They aren't one of us. They'll never be one of us. They are "Idiot Kickers" and they have 1 job to do. Kick the oblong through the goal posts.
They don't practice with the team, but you know they're on the team. Every day at practice, you see them in the distance..........kicking field goals with the..........back up kicker......err.....other soccer player. They kick from both hashes, long and short, from behind the posts, from the parking lot banking off cars. All through the uprights.
Thats what they do for 3 f'ing hours while the real football players practice.
Come game day, they let you down. Not always, but enough. Chip shots should be automatic. FREAKING AUTOMATIC! You can not let your team down by choking a god dammed chip shot.
Possibly this is why Pop Warner is much less aggravating then College, Pro and even high school. Because, in Pee Wee league theres a good chance that the guy kicking the ball is wearing a neck roll, wearing #56, throws the ball on offense and plays middle backer on D. And if he misses, he's still one of you.
As opposed to the soccer player standing there with his stupid elf shoe (singular), styrofoam shoulder pads, spandex game pants and his Joe Theisman facemask enhancing his view.
