No, what IS a crapload, is an OP about a player that none of you know a single thing about, and all you want to do is look clever and run off your mouths...and all your damn comments are about me. Naw, I'm not being a deuch...but if that is really how all of you roll, roll with someone else.

Haha, alright CCboy, you take your Sam Hill articles super seriously. I understand now that this is a life or death thread and there is no room for humor.

Guys stop cutting up damn it. This is a SERIOUS kicker thread!

Assenine isn't hid behind an ego of insult...and humor has been provided as well, but you want to claim high ground, or as you recline to, over, under in between, how ever fits your ego...hill.

You go stud...and the burn barrel isn't lost on someone who thinks he has fresh insight and humor.

Now show me a single word of YOURS that discusses football...I already provided an OP.

Ha! Yeah, I couldn't believe no one had responded yet. I only remember that phrase from watching "It's a wonderful life" as in .... "What the sam hill are you yelling for George??"

If anything is funnier, it's CCBoy losing it after reading my post. I wasn't even trolling anyone!!!

Maybe, if you had used a single word about football instead of gloating about making fun...you could actually take credit for being more than a prep here. I like the idea of once again, the Cowboys trying out a rugby player who probably has an excellent leg to boot.

But brag along, son...as if you are truly 'funny.'

I'd start spinning that wool instead of trying to pull it over anyone's eyes...but most of what you talk about is going your way.

Oh, as if you are really missing humor, here:

“Dan Bailey, Chris Jones, and L.P. Ladouceur are all phenomenal athletes and it’s great to learn from them,” says Irwin-Hill. “My being here is important to my career, so I’ll take it one day at a time and see how it goes when we get to preseason. I’m trying to build a foundation here and see what happens.”

Irwin-Hill is not the only current Australian who is part of the Cowboys. Jinelle, a 5-year veteran and group leader for the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, is a native of Melbourne.

“I’ve had four or five people already tell me that I need to meet Jinelle!” notes Irwin-Hill.

How was I to know this was a SERIOUS kicker thread??? In the thread title itself, Sam Irwin-Hill'S used a comical apostrophe capital s at the end of it. I was certain that was a dog whistle for humorous comments.

FROM DOWN UNDER TO DALLAS: PUNTER SAM IRWIN-HILL’S JOURNEY FROM AUSTRALIA TO AMERICA’S TEAM

Sam Irwin-Hill, a punter from Down Under, hopes to be next in a growing line of Australians to play for America’s Team. He is the fourth Australian punter signed to the Cowboys roster following Colin Ridgway (1965), Mat McBriar (2003-11), and Tom Hornsey (preseason 2014-15).

Irwin-Hill, a free agent signed by the Cowboys in April, took a circuitous route from Melbourne (actually Bendigo, his hometown) to Dallas. Growing up playing Australian Rules Football, he knew his skills could translate well to American football.

“I started in an Academy called PROKICK Australia run by Nathan Chapman and John Smith,” explains Irwin-Hill. “At the time there were only four or five guys in front of me, one being Tom Hornsey. For 12 months, we train and develop film so that coaches in the United States can see us.

“All of a sudden, I’m off to San Francisco to play junior college football. George Rush was my coach at City College of San Francisco and he already had a connection with Nathan and Joe. He spoke directly with them. Coach Rush thought it would be a good opportunity to get unique punting and kicking ability in there. He rolled the dice and the next thing you know I’m on a plane to San Francisco...

I'd still get his autograph at Training Camp. I have an autographed Cowboy Hat from a #2 kicker back when Bill Parcells had his first camp with the Cowboys.

I tried to care about a punter that won't make it out of camp... but I just couldn't do it.

Maybe Garrett will "asthma field" him and make him more interesting.
