If I were a kicker these days and kicking a 63 yard field goal, I'd go ahead and back it up another yard for the hell of it. Who wants to share a record with 2 or 3 other douchebag kickers?

Please do not get me wrong - Dempsy's kick is one of the things that drew me to the Saints when I was just a kid.

BUT... didn't Dempsey have a block of wood on the end of his foot? I could be worng - but I was pretty sure I read this...

Wood has got to give a little extra "omph" to any kick.
