"Kickalicious": This Kicker is Amazing

[masterlock]

Check out this video and tell me whether you think this guy deserves a shot in the NFL. I think he's amazing.

I've seen him before but I would be much more impressed if I seen him do this stuff in person. This stuff is too easily faked.

Although all those cute trick shots don't have a place in the NFL, I'm sure if he can consistently kick long and straight, he could be an NFL kicker.  The question then is "why isn't he"?  Maybe he doesn't want to do that.  Maybe he can't.

 

And who knows how many deleted attempts it took to generate that highlight reel.

The Jets saw this video last year and brought him in for a try out. He was not signed, so that tells you all that you need to know about him being an NFL caliber kicker.

Good news: Kickalicious has generated some buzz around the league and is actually getting a chance to try out for teams. When you're a 28 year old Norwegian, sometimes it'll take a trick shot video or two to get noticed lol.

 Ouch! If you can't join that Circus, then there's something wrong with you. lol

The problem with all these videos for, as Blazer said previously, they're too easy to fake which somewhat detracts from the "wow/OMG" factor. That and how many takes? Without blowing my own trumpet I reckon I could make some of these (I've place kicked playing rugby before) with enough tries. 

 

For me the hardest part of kicking in the NFL seems to be the Snap/Hold and the fact there is a load of angry scary men rushing you.

I SAW A WOMENS BASKETBALL PLAYER AT UCONN MAKE A TRICK SHOT VIDEO A COUPLE YEARS BACK.SHE HAS 'NT MADE A BASKET YET SINCE THEN.RISKY.

I like that Lauren Silberman. I mean, she can't kick very far, but she's kinda cute. We could double up and make her a cheerleader lol.
