Would it be illegal if we had Canty put Grammatica on his shoulders and had him jump up and down?

It wouldn't really strain Canty at all, it would be like a little jitterbug landing on your shoulder.

Damn good ideal but the league frowns on that. :laugh2:

I thought it was a term for a little bug? Who knows!

All I know is Martin reminds me of a bug.. a small bug.. so use your imagination. ;)

Edit: You're right, it's a dance.. maybe that's what Martin does? The jitterbug dance?

but I'm guessing there was panic and no one yelled "fire" or whatever they call.
Grammaica yelled "Fi...." then was immediately tapped out of the way by the eagles.
If we're going for the fastest to hold, we should have Spears kick. He could at least block the onslaught. :eek::

Good call, Doug, I think that's what I meant.

For the love of God, I really can't believe this has never been considered by the Boy's...Hos and I have been saying it for 2 years.

How come Bledsoe wouldn't or couldn't do it? Is it beyond him? Is he to good for that role?

but why give the duties to a less qualified candidate?

I think it's moreso the fact of "if it ain't broke.."

I knew Parcells wouldn't switch midseason like that, though I absolutely guarantee that Romo won't be our holder next year.

Jake Plummer does, and you look back in past years and ALOT of the starters used to hold. I was watching old NFL Films videos the past couple of days and in the past many of the starters held.

Fact is, Parcells didn't want to switch midseason. It's not like Romo started off as the starter.

idk about Brady, but Losman didn't take Drew's job until after Drew left, during the '05 offseason
