Brandon Aubrey's Missed Extra Point

[Reality]

I posted this in another thread but felt it would be good to post as a standalone thread.

This one point is not why the Cowboys lost of course, but for some reason people seemed focused on it so ...

On the extra point attempt, the hold was not good ..

See the ball angle? That pushes the ball to the right.

Compare it to similar kicks of the same distance from other games by Aubrey ..

I noticed that last night when the showed the replay.

His other extra points were towards the posts as well.

Yep but I'm still upset we were kicking a XP from there!!
Discipline!!!
On the lighter side, you know kickers, either they bounce back, or it's curtains. Waiting for robo-kickers then I'll be over

That was a long extra point thanx to one of the dumbest unsportsmanlike penalties I've ever seen. We are getting our butts beat and Jovante' has to act like that on a nice play? It's not like he's scoring a TD to seal a win. Reminds me of the old Jimmy Johnson line about dumb football players.
