    Adide from the WTF factor, imagine being the most easily replaceable member of the team and saying literally anything divisive at all. Like bruh you ain’t the QB, you can be gone end of the season and thats it, no one gonna look twice at you. You’re a step above the guy in the mascot suit.

      NFL kicker has to be a really weirdly rough job. You don’t really do much work during the game and have far less risk of violent physical contact, but you have to practice your ass off outside the game because the kicking game has little margin for error. Your role is absolutely critical and can easily decide the outcome of almost every game, but nobody respects you and almost nobody knows your name unless you fuck up real bad. I used to be a huge NFL nerd but can only name three kickers: Pat McAfee because he’s a TV personality now, Sebastion Janikowski because of his name and how rotund he was, and Ray Finkle who isn’t even a real person just a movie kicker. I can’t even remember the name of the Hall of Fame kicker for the Pats and Colts who won many Super Bowls.

      And yeah, nobody will give a shit if this shitstain goes away. Will the NFL, well-known for their respect for human rights and progressive views, actually do anything about it, though?

          Thank you, that was bugging me… just not enough to actually search it myself.

        Pat McAfee was a punter, but yeah a kicker is like being a ref: if you know their name it usually means they did bad.

        I believe they prefer to go by Lois Einhorn now.

        Eddie Murray was the top point scorer for the Lions for the entirety of the 80’s. Growing up in Michigan during that decade, he and Barry Sanders (90’s) are the only Lions I can remember.

        Maybe that’s just a really specific circumstance of a great kicker on a shit team, but I think he was pretty respected.

        The kicker is normally the highest scoring player on the team, they really are weirdly underappreciated.

        Wow, I only knew Ray Finkle and had never had any idea whether he was fictional.

      Hey. The guy in the mascot suit actually works for his check. This fuckstick is lower on the roster than the towel boy, and seems even less intelligent than the orange water cooler.

        no reason to put down kickers because of butker. its probably the most mentally tough job in the league

        blair walsh went from all star record breaking kicker to not even in the league anymore all because of 1 single missed kick

          Then the Seahawks had to sign him under the official NFL ‘you break it, you bought it’ clause.
