    Morten Anderson!!??

    I just heard on the radio this morning that the Falcons signed Morten Anderson. I don't know how old this guy is, but I do have his rookie card FROM 1982!

    Won't this interfere with his Social Security payments?
    Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

          That's insane. His leg can't still be limber enough to hit the long ball.

            The plan is to keep the old kicker for long attempts and punting.

            Anderson gets everything from 45 yards in.

              I wonder about this being a marketing ploy? It just so happens the Falcons are playing the Saints (Mort's 1st team) at the Superdome in New orleans on MNF. Its the 1st time the Saints have played there since the hurricane.

                When your Kicker is 2 of 8 in FG attempts, many of them short ones, you don't need to search for wild reasons.

                    They say the player really never leaves the game, the game leaves the player. If MA thinks he can still kick, more power to him.
