He nailed that thing.  Who's looking after the llama farm now that he's back in the NFL?

That had at least another 15-20 yards on it.

Right down the middle.  Too bad he couldn't do that for the Bucs the year after the Super Bowl when the whole thing fell apart.

No kidding.  That was a 46 yarder that was still at the top of the uprights and rising as it went through.  I'm originally from Kansas and most of the family went to KSU.  Many people would watch him kick at practice just to see the little guy nail the long ones.  Bill Snyder swears he made one in practice from 74 yards.

good on ya martin.

its amazing i think most people will always root for this guy, even though he lost it with us you could tell it really was something mental and he just couldnt get out of it, despite the fact that he was tryin his ass off.

I'm really happy for him. I am glad that he found his stride again.

We don't have a super bowl without him.

I had to laugh when I saw the cowboys, especially TE witten, grab gramatica and hold him to his feet before he could do his complete leap dance. Maybe they were on orders from parcells to stop gramatica from hurting himself in the celebration.

Miss the guy...

I hate the Cowboys, but what a great kick that was.  He missed the first kick of the game horribly, but bounced back just fine.  The last kick looked like it would have been good from 60.  Best of luck, Martin (except against the Bucs).

[Boid Fink]

God.  I was at the local bar, drinking some cheap Coors Lights, and watching the Ginats fans BELLOW at the sets.  There was one guy who was particularly loud, and was told by my buddy (the owner), and a few customers to pipe down.  He apologized and said how much he loved the Giants, and of course, I named more players from their past than he could...anyway...just before they kick the FG, I yell out AUTOMATICCA!!

And one of the Big Mouths buddies creeps up behind me and taps my shoulder.  HE is inches from my face, and in sore need of a breath mint, and he sputters, "Why you gotta say that?"

And he is absolutely hostile.  The tone of his voice, the look in his eyes...I looked him right in the eye, and said "AUTOMATICA!" and told him to get the hell out of my face before I take out my seasons frustrations out on him.  My GF looks at him and says, "Just go kid."

He leaves, backing up slowly,  Martin kicks the winner, and I remembered the good old days before the meltdown.

Then I went home, and just got done setting up the X-mas tree.  MERRY CHRISTMAS FELLAS!

Fear is a  powerful motivator. If he misses that kick, he probably knew the wrath of Parcells was waiting for him and a pink slip.
