His character was actually named Barf… but you could yell either one and people would get the point.

and didn’t stick with him just out of pride because he was a vet.

You probably will get to hear more about the story.
Not to get ahead of myself, but if Feely has unkind things to say about Carl, I hope people will recognize Carl’s moves to be in the best interests of the team. I consider the “get terms of agreement, bring him in, try him out, make a decision” to be pretty good management by the front office in this case. And the timing shouldn’t hurt Feely’s chances with someone else, excpept for the fact that he now has “Chiefs reject” on his resume.

But for now, let’s assume Feely will say nice things and how fairly he was treated.

I don’t think they brought in a guy who hit 90% of his field goals last year as a psychological gambit…I think the guy’s probably got some injury issues. Maybe that groin pull is worse than he’s letting on.

I’m a firm believer in hang time, I’d rather have them catch it on the 5 and get smothered at the ten then field it in the endzone, kneel down and start at the 20 =)

Doesn’t necessarily mean that Novak or Barth are going to be our kicker come opening day. It COULD happen, but there is a reason they brought Feely in in the first place. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them bring in a couple more kickers for tryouts.

I honestly have no opinion one way or the other. I just want a kicker that can put it through the uprights without a lot of drama. If one of the guys we’ve got on the squad can do that, great. But if not, I think they should keep looking.

but hindsight is 20/20 and we can’t go back. Medlock and Crosby were similiar prospects coming out of college. We just happened to choose wrong.
