re: When is it on a kicker to say "I prolly won't make this"

If your boss asks you to do something you do it.

Hmm, that's a very dangerous mindset. As an employee, it's your job to ensure the objective is completed, not kiss arse.

My work and my boss remind me all the time to not do stuff just because management or my boss tell me to. its due dillagence.

Hell, I heard an interview with a general recently and he said it was his due dillegence to not blindly follow orders.

With that being said, inhave no problem with this kick

think their coach wants to know how many yards they're good for.

which is different than saying "i probably won't make this"

Never. The coach's job is to know his players' capabilities.

1-second before the half dude.

Raiders used to try that shite all the time as a lark to see if Jano could just get a hold of one and break the record Bob Beamon style.

Jano has probably the biggest leg ever and probably hits shite like that in practice without pressure though.

I had Denver ML $1800 to win $1000 and also Denver +3 2nd half for about 400 more. I honestly thought it was going to be a pooch punt all the way until the snap and hold I guess my point is that I was begging them not to try it - how could a coach who has more vested in it than me be so flippant about the circumstances of a miss there? Still had a good week and had some KC +13 teasers that almost offset the loss that was easily my worst loss of the year - especially with God taunting me on the upright doink at the end - one more knife in my heart as my hopes soared momentarily

Ahh so you're a douche!

Asking a NFL kicker about how far they can kick is a lot like asking a dude about his dick size. They are always gonna add some yards to it.
