Just as we could not believe Uncle Rico could actually throw the ball "over a mountain" because we lacked video evidence, and just as we could not believe the bearded guy's video evidence of his donkey Kong mastery, the judges cannot accept fanmd's video as evidence that he is what he thought he was.

Shane H wins.

Sorry fanmd.

Ok since no video was posted IMO that is prima facia that this could not be accomplished by you. Give up the avatar for one year punk! :D

That is pretty much the worst video ever made.



no face, no more vids Shane wins

No chance. Just because I haven't had time to drive all the way to Fort Meade to use the field that has markers again doesn't change the facts. When I post the vid with my face I expect apologies form all of you for your attacks on my integrity.

Not on your integrity. We just need proof. Give us proof, sir!!!

If you post acceptable proof, you can pick my avatar for a week.

That will be acceptable proof after his 158th attempt. :)

I'll give ya through the next Monday. Other wise bet is off.



You said the bet would be off, not that you'd win. Even still, if that's the case then you could never win the bet. I think CardsfanMD needs to set a date when he can go, say he's heading out to do it, then either post video proof of his success, or nothing if failed.

I need time and someone to tape it is the problem. I have 1 ball and my phone to tape it and the only field that is painted for football right now anywhere near me is 1/2 hour away. With 2 kids a job and school, I am not overflowing with available time to run down there. I am going to try to kidnap my better half's little brother again on friday and hopefully he can hold the damn camera right this time.

2 hours should be all you need. 1 hour for travel, and 1 hour for kicking. That's 3 minutes per kick (enough time to lazily walk to the ball, grab it, then lazily walk back to the kicking spot).

That's not a huge time investment for a bet.

You'll probably want to get a better camera though, I doubt a phone camera is going to record that long.

You must not have kids. And who gives up 2 hours of their day to hold the camera?

That was the original plan, but once the snow had been gone for a few weeks they moved us off the turf and to our home complex. We have a football field there, but all of the football fields around here are currently lined for lacrosse only.

40 yards is 120 ft. I will go to the unmarked field and measure it out with a tape measure, but I have a strange suspicion you guys wont believe that it's the correct yardage.

Alright, here's some. No I didn't make them all, but I was kicking in 40 m/p/h winds, whereas Neil doesn't hit from 26 in a dome. Notice this is definitely not me saying I am better or anywhere near as good as Rackers. Just trying to point out that if I can hit from 40 out (and wasn't even good enough to be the #1 kicker in HS) then there have to be tens or hundreds of thousands out there who are pretty damn good at this. There is life after Rackers.

Umm, that is not a link to your video.

It did lead to a nice youtube of my dog, however.
