By chance anyone know the yardage on those 5 FG attempts and specifically which ones were missed?

Well the game is named after the two "skinny" guys, the two that use their "foot"

I always thought the game should be called Gridball or something like that.

Yeah that is funny.

My British friends over in the UK always mock our football, because the "foot" in American football really is a mute point in our version of the game...

their opinion is that we should call it "Fieldball" or "Tackleball"

Yeah, those don't sound good, but it's still pretty funny how Brits see it.

Boston is in the CFL now? WOW
Boston had so much potential before he bulked up using hgh/roids
he hasn't been no where the same since
I remember seeing a pic of him when he was like 250-260 pds but he was running like a 4.5 or so.. guy was huge

Yessur, we also have Bethel Johnson(2-time Super Bowl Champion with the Pats) and Jamal Robertson(Former 49er, Falcon and Panther).

He missed his first 2 from 36 and 44 yards I believe. His third one was also a miss and it was from 51. And then he hit a clutch kick to put us up by 4 from 49 yards and then hit one with 2 minutes left from 44 and basically sealed the deal.

Over here I call soccer kickball or ladyball, not a fan.

Liquor was drank, mistakes made, arrests handed out, court dates ignorned, warrants issued and the circle of life repeats. Days come and go as do fits of rage and the occasional bout of depression.

Often you salt the rim of your revolver so's that the cold steel tastes just a bit like the Margaritas you so often abuse. One thing is for certain, Mother Nature along with her deadly mistress Confidence are fickle damn b*tches.

it did the same thing to the Bills kicker who missed against the Giants. he was never the same again. its so bad, i forgot his flippin name.

he and vandermiss are the football versions of mitch williams and brad lidge.....one bad piece of misfortune in big games and their careers go to complete dookie. The Bills kicker never recovered from missing the game winning kick in the SB........LACES OUT JIM....LACES OUT. Vandermiss never recovered from that miss against the Steelers, I believe it was. Williams never recovered from the HR by Joe Carter in the WS. Lidge never recovered from the HR by Albert "Satan" Pujols in the NLCS.....

these guys all had one thing in common.....very fragile psyches.....maybe they can all go to the nuthouse together and spend the rest of their lives playing bridge.

or Manballs? Cause you gotta have 'em to step on the field and run from a 6'4" 315-lb. lineman. I'd like to see those UK Soccer wusses try to do that. :D

Have you guys even watched Soccer before? Yeah, they do a lot of acting, but have you ever seen two guys go up for header at the same time and bang heads. When that happens there is often a lot of blood!! People have been killed playing Soccer before, not a wussy sport at all.

There are a lot of former Cowboys in the CFL: Rambo, Jermaine Copeland, Willie Pile, not to mention guys like Jason Tucker and Chris Brazell. Anyone else I am missing?

Byron Parker, though he only tried out and was cut during camp.
