That was pretty fucking cool.

Does this show Beckham's 64 yard field goal?

[Hobo]

So this is basically the same deal as the Beckham and Johnny Wilkinson (I think) add?

[Lord Nibbler]

Yes, but longer.

How much do kickers in the NFL get paid? It's pretty much the easiest job out.

[IAceI]

Didn't Bironas for Tennessee hit about a 68 yarder?

Either way, I quite enjoyed watching that. Seemed like it was all enjoyable, and if both gain a bit of respect for each other's sports, then it's all fine.

EDIT: Okay where the fuck have I got 68 yards from? No more Madden for me! >_<

Record is 63 yards, in game. So yes, if he was a NFL kicker then he would have set a new record.

Bit different kicking in practice to kicking in a game situation though.

What I want to know is why/how he had Adidas logos on his uniform, when I thought Reebok had exclusive rights to NFL uniform and the like.

I'm sure an NFL kicker could kick that far without a bunch of guys jumping at them.

"Am I being punked?" - best line of the video

Beckham is sponsored by Adidas. I doubt they wanted Reebok getting advertisement on their ad.

I'm guessing Adidas make training wear; plus it's Beckham so they would do anything for him.

Am I the only one that found it funny that David Beckham beat someone for pace?

It was Tony Meola but he only tried out for the team and I am not really sure if he made the Jets or not.

[Cactus Drags]

Yeah, it doesn't seem like he did. Odd, I could have sworn I remember seeing him play, maybe it was just a feature on him trying out :/

Depends on how good you are. Adam Vinatieri made 4,482,200 last year. Including signing bonus and team bonuses.

It should be noted that the kicker with the record field goal only had half of a foot.

Christ, even back then the Lions were on the bad side of a highlight reel.

[Dan]

Good move by Addidas.

Have Beckham in an ad with a well known American just as he goes out their.
