[QUOTE="PWT36, post: 73337, member: 170"] I thought it was surprising that this topic appeared on PF on May 21st. I seem to remember this was "all hash out" on PF when Longwell signed a contract with Vikings, so he could kick in dome in Mn. Then Vitnateri was available, the Packers talk to him, made him an competitive offer and He choose Indy over the Packer.s So Vinateri ,as Ryan Longwell did ,chose to kick in a dome and Vanderjagk of Colts chose a warmer climate with stadium with hole in their roof in Dallas. All three kickers are over thirty. Always cross check your sources before you believe anything. One source does not make it a fact. Make sure the reporter has references to back up his story,like quotes from team officials etc. I remember posting at the time of Packer FG kicker search was going on, this was nothing new in a story about veteran FG kicker going to a dome or warmer weather climate to kick, over a cold weather franchise. Between 1980 -1983, there was 14 year (long time K.C Chiefs ) Veteran NFL Fg kicker Jan Stenerud, who kicked in Green Bay. Stenerud was in his late 30's when he came here to Green Bay. Stenerud still proved to be excellent kicker for his time in Green Bay, His Green Bay contract expired and Jan signed with The MN. Vikings to extend his kicking career a few more years, because he could Kick in a dome. A FG kicker in his last years does what he has to do to keep collecting those big contracts for a little longer. He trys to find a Team with warm weather or dome conditions to give him a big contract. [/QUOTE]
