Remember when 50YD FG's were long?>

[Notorious 1 E.Y.E.]

When did these FG kickers get leg steroids? I remember when a 56yd fg would be a major decision, now it's just like whatever. When did these kickers start routinely kicking these bombs?

when robby gould got drafted

up untill then
it was just vinatari and vanderjack


hs/college teams started scooping up soccer players

Anecdotal evidence doesn't negate the overall shift

1960s: 13.1 percent

1970s: 21.6 percent

1980s: 35.6 percent

1990s: 47.8 percent

2000s: 53.0 percent

And this year [2010], it's better still: 55.9 percent.
