Part of that has to do with distance. Usually, kickers use low line drive kicks from long range in order to get the distance. The closer you get, the higher you can kick it in the air in order to get it out of reach of the defensive line.

Apparently the BC QB just got sacked for a five yard gain.
-
They could've clocked it and ran a pass play but there's a good chance they don't gain another yard. Plus they can't afford to take a sack without a timeout. They had enough time for a pass play or two to the sidelines. Even a quick 5-8 yard route followed by a spike would have given them a better chance.

Considering Tennessee had about 40 seconds to move the ball further down field, but instead opted to be complacent with a 44 yard kick, that's on Kiffin.
-
What a play!!
-
Tennessee recovered the onside kick? Ruh roh.
-
Horrible helmet-to-helmet hit in the Miami/Clemson game. I'm shocked no flag was thrown.
-
I love that Charlie Weis didn't bother tying the game.
-
That goal line stop for BC is going to be reviewed and probably overturned.
-
That is one awesome referee.
-
I think the filter is set to expletive out anything that starts with fu and ends with ck.

Awesome fumble in the red zone there, Michigan.
-
Michigan's doing an awesome job of blowing it today.
-
Awesome safety there, Michigan.

How the hell is Tate Forcier not a cripple yet?
-
A 1 yard dump off on 4th and 5? hahahahahaha
-
For Nebraska
-
I love the fact that there's some issue down on the field in the Tenn-Alabama game and Lane Kiffin is letting his dad take care of it.
-
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand another blocked kick by ISU.
-
It's sad that the best game I'm getting right now is ISU/Nebraska.
-
Gotta love it when a team runs a 2 minute drill without any sense of urgency.

Let's see... Are there any good clubhouse stories you have from this past season in terms of pranks guys played on each other? Do you think the Cubs will try to move Aaron Miles, or is he going to play out his contract with the Cubs? Have you talked to the Cubs about how their prospects are looking down in the Arizona Fall League? If so, what does the team have to say about their performances so far? Can you give us an update on Soriano's surgery and rehabilitation? Are the Cubs planning on pursuing a CF and moving Fukudome to RF, or are they instead going to keep Fukudome in CF? What are the odds Bradley is in this team's opening day lineup in 2010? Will the Cubs pursue extensions for any players during the offseason? If so, who? Have you had a chance to meet the new owners yet? If so, what do you think about them?

ALCS: Yankees vs. Angels (NYY Win 4-2)

I thought Fuentes pitched out of the stretch regardless of who is on base? I thought he worked out of the windup. In any case, it just seems like he's been uncomfortable with runners on base during the postseason. My counter-point to that is that it would be much easier for Matsui to beat you than A-Rod. I think it'd be more likely to see Matsui double/triple/homer than see A-Rod homer. -

Why? I do not believe in intentionally walking a hitter in that situation for the following reasons: 1) Matsui has been hitting the ball really well in the postseason. It's not like walking A-Rod to get to the pitcher. 2) It put the tying run on base. 3) It forced Fuentes to pitch out of the stretch, which is where it seems like he gets in trouble. 4) Further expanding on that, Fuentes' 1.40 WHIP and 46/24 K/BB is cause for concern that he sometimes struggles with his control. From the look of how that inning started with two easy outs, I wouldn't want to mess with any rhythm he had going. 5) While A-Rod has been hot at the plate, you can always try pitching around him to see if you can get him to chase. I know A-Rod has been hot during the playoffs, but the odds of him tying the game in that situation are not great enough to merit giving him a free pass. -
I think all but a select few coaching or managing are. but with lou it seems much more exaggerated. Like, your first at bat determines what he thinks of you. It's kind of hard to compare him with other managers and coaches in this regard without following those teams extensively.
