Well I saw the record of points by a kicker in a game that Baer tied at 16---Actually I had 19 in one game----However 12 were on 2 TDS---Think that it should be the most points scored by kicking in a game!!! LOL---- Man I sure hope he finishes great and can have an NFL career!!! Coach HUD mentioned his weight gain and no doubt strength ----Mass times Velocity works!!!!

[Turbine]

Boomer don't tell me you missed the extra point on one of those TDs.

I'm assuming 2 FGs and 1 exra point to get to 19

----Mass times Velocity works!!!!

Mass times ACCELERATION

Sorry, had to.

[VObserver]

Mass times ACCELERATION

Sorry, had to.

Actually: Mass times the Square of Velocity.

Depends on which direction you are looking at the system from. The force on the ball is what causes it to move. The movement from stationary is the initial acceleration. So that part is mass time acceleration.

If you're looking back at how much energy the foot can transfer to the ball, then you're looking at 1/2 mass times velocity squared.

Or at least that's what I think. Been a while since Hibbeler's dynamics class.

Well, all I can say is, il a frappe' la merde vivant hors de cette.

Holy Crap, a physics debate has sprung from a Troy vs. UL newspaper article....its like walking in a pasture to see a mushroom growing from a terd. lol

[Crawfish]

Holy Crap, what the hell are you boys talkin' about?

Here is the deal: Baer kicks the dogsnot outta the ball and it goes through the uprights.

I hope that staightened the whole thing out.

Well keep in mind that Boomer started it!

It wasn't really a debate, more like a discussion. And I think the bottom line is that Boomer was right!

Yes, and that is the scary part! I was joking though

It's about punting.....but you get the idea......

From that one it sounds like the added bulk helps if it increases leg speed.......

I guess Janakowski is fat AND has high leg speed....LOL

He is most certainly fat....

-----BUSTED!!! Can't remember---must have been a bad snap or blocked ---LOL

----Always thought that the inertia factor was greatly effected by the hold of the ball---Wouldn't any downward pressure be a hinderance to the mechanical formulae that were presented????
