Good for Him

NOT a big deal for us however. Carolina 3-0. What happened to their kicker?

here's an older link..... but here's why.

Carolina Panthers kicker John Kasay had hernia surgery Friday and will be out 6-to-8 weeks.

This probably had something to do with it as well:

Panthers | Hilbert Released - posted at KFFL (http://nfl.kffl.com)
13:31 PT: ESPN.com's Len Pasquarelli reports the Carolina Panthers have released PK Jon Hilbert. It isn't certain who will handle the kicking duties for the Panthers this weekend.

Big ___: I guess they don't make them as tuff as they do in Canada. ****, do you remember the guy who kicked for one of the Roughrider teams that has NO legs?

Yeah, he trained out on the prairies in 90 below weather kicking frozen cow patties over the power lines until one of his legs (the frozen one) shattered into a million pieces

Now I remember. He played for the Saskatchewan Roughriders and before that the Saskatoon Snowshoers. I have never seen a guy kick with his ____, but he was hung well enough to be able to do it. Remember when they used to carry him out on the field (he had no legs), but no one wanted to get to close to his _____ and it would drag on the field. In the winter it left a trail, but in the summer he got astroturf burn. That must have been difficult to explain to his doctor.

I still have his bubblegum card from hi slast year. What was his nickname?

Actually, Shane Graham did OK kicking for the Bills in the latter part of last season. I guess TD just didn't want to rely on a relatively untested rookie. Then maybe again he didn't like the fact that Graham bears a resemblance to Jay Fiedler.
