The Bucs Publicly Thanking Dan Bailey For Sucking At His Job After Missing Four Field Goals Is The Biggest Slap In The Face
Listen, I feel for kickers. I really do. They have to hear the entire time how they aren't real football players and all the same old shit. They are the ones who get blamed if they miss a kick because that's their only job. All fair assessments. You should be able to make a kick, the problem is you get like 3 chances a game. A quarterback misses a throw, he can redeem himself. Kicker doesn't get 30 more chances.
Or your Dan Bailey and just suck. It's almost impossible to miss four field goals in one game
You have a bad game you have to deal with your teammates being pissed. But the opposing team, a good team even, publicly thanking you for sucking at your job is downright a slap to the face. Five fingers, Rick James Chapelle Show style. You just hope that Anthony Lynn or someone else fucks up the day so bad that you get overshadowed.
The Vikings are in the playoff hunt. I know, it's crazy and everything because it looked like Kirk Cousins couldn't throw the ball more than 3 yards downfield to start the season. But Justin Jefferson is fucking awesome. You have a chance to make a statement in what's really close to a must-win game. You fight your ass off only for your kicker to miss 4 field goals. Yeah, I'd say the same thing if I was Shaq Barrett or any other Buc really. Why not? Bailey deserves it.
