That's just a couple of 'unnatural' acts. Why would he reach/scoop with his right after using his left to boost himself up? And why is he clearly pinching something between his fingers with his left shortly thereafter? Sure seems to point to the conclusion that he picked something up and was holding it.
But where I keep coming to is that it's probably legal. I mean...surely they aren't that blatant. Or it's some kind of 'unwritten rule' thing where nobody cares.
I watched the video and it definitely looks like he picks something up. I don't play golf but maybe he is marking it like you would do when you putt. [Reply]

If he's putting down a ball marker, it is 1) bright yellow and 2) the size of a dime or smaller.

Butker's back is to that ball for 3 seconds before it clears the uprights.
That dude was locked in like nothing you'll ever see. I wonder if he'd have hit from 65. If he needed 68 I think he had it. I mean lord, he was FEELING it.
Im not sure I’ve ever been that confident of anything in my whole life.
Much less a record tying field goal. Jesus.

LOL. I don’t even know what to say to that. At 70 does he have to take into account the Coriolis effect? I’d hate to lose a game because the kicker doesn’t know the earth is moving. [Reply]

"When asked about his near-miss 78 yard game-winner that bounced off the left upright, Butker responded 'yeah, I forgot to check the position of the moon - fucking tidal pull will get you every time...'"
I mean that's just the swingingest dick move I've ever seen from a kicker. Just hilarious. [Reply]

He didn't actually kick the ball far at all. He just kicked it high and the uprights circled around to accept it. [Reply]
I don't think he did have anything there....but for the sake of this thread - suppose he had a clear piece of plastic - like a clear tiddily wink to use as a place marker. He would be able to see it from his distance, but anyone six feet away would not be able to see it. [Reply]
Wait... if you watch the video on the 14 second mark, you can clearly watch NFL crew chief Carl Chaffers bend down on the field to pick up his payment that Andy Reid dropped there just moments before.
Yep, this game was surely fixed. They just threw in some of those extra penalties against the Chiefs to make it interesting. [Reply]

You can make light of this situation with jokes all you want. It won't change the fact the Chiefs holder sprinkled magical field goal fairy dust and the Chiefs are a bunch of cheating whores! [Reply]
