Ask ya favorite kicker man Raven anything - Raven - 05-28-2017
(Finished, unless I get more questions)
Love you long time
:interview: - @WinstonKodogo
Hi Raven thanks for taking the time to do this.
1. What's the stronger part of your game kicking or punting?
My strong suit definatly is kicking right now. It's also something I enjoy doing way more.
2. Where do you think you rank compared to the other kickers?
Definatly better than Bojo Benchsit. I think I`m a top 3 kicker in this class and I hope GM's will recognise this aswell. My kicks are powerful and accurate and that`ll be alot of extra points.
3. Would you have the confidence to make a clutch last minute field goal?
I live for those moments. Clutch is my middle name and will show that in my play on the field. I feel like those under pressure moments only enhance my kicking abilities.
:interview: - @theFlock
1.) Given perfect kicking conditions, how far do you think you could boot in a field goal?
Right now I`d say I could boot a 46 yarder. My leg power is my pain priority right now so I hope to be able to start kicking them in from the 50's soon.
2.) Same conditions, furthest punt?
I don't punt often, but last time I actually did some distance measuring it was about 49. I could probably go 55+ now.
3.) Which brand cleat do you trust the most when kicking field goals?
I use a pair of Nike Hypervenom's. They are such a nice fit, I can't even imagine going for a differnt brand at this point in time.
4.) Favorite kick you've made in your career?
Must have been the playoff clinching kick I made in the second last game of my first season. We were down by 2 and I had a 42 yard shot. The wind was in my favour so I had that going for me. Yet I somehow still made a poor kick, luckily it dropped just down into the corner and we won the game.
5.) What feels better, a clutch kick in the wind or a clutch kick in the rain?
Oh that's a tough one. I think a clutch kick in the soaking rain feels the most satisfying. However kickin in a ball through a straight on headwind will also leave a very nice feeling.
:interview: - @Dinklburger01
1. Do you think a team would be smart to pick you within the first 3 rounds?
Hell yeah. Teams need to secure up some clutch early and I think I can bring that.
2. What is the biggest appeal to being a kicker?
The pressure of the moment. The moment of the kick everyone has their eyes on you. You are the main focus of all the attention and being able to push through and kick a solid field goal is so good.
Also being able to win a game for your team with a single kick is so rewarding.
3. Does it bother you knowing how difficult it is for a kicker to be recognized in the Hall of Fame?
It doesn't. I will work my ass off to be one of the rare kickers in the Hall Of Fame.
4. What pro kicker do you want to be most like?
Justin Tucker, powerful and accurate.
5. What do you think is he least important position on a football team?
I think every position brings it's responsibilities and importances to the game. Even the water boy has an imporant job.
:interview: - @Shaka
1. What's enticing about playing kicker?
As I mentioned earlier, it's definatly the focus you get as a kicker while going for a kick. A full stadium eyeing you down. Especially when a game is on the line, it gives such a rush.
2. Do you feel a super active member like yourself is wasted at kicker?
I feel like me being any other position would be a waste of a position.
3. What if you're awful? Are you gona stay active and stick it out?
I`m not Bojo Benchsit. I`m going to be the best kicker the league has seen. In the off chance I suck ass, ofcourse I`ll still be active and stick around. Depending on howlong I suck though, I might look at a recreate.
4. What if a team drafted a kicker already and made you their punter? That'd be kinda dick.
It'd be dick, but it's a position I could fill for a team. Ofcourse my main priority is the kicker role, but if a better kicker is around, I`ll happily take on the role of punter.
5. Your sig is on point. Love a kicker sig. You a Tucker fan?
Thanks, .Broken made it. A fuckin proper lad. Since I`ve started football and decided to be a kicker, I have looked up to Justin Tucker.
:interview: - @Grapehead
1. What is your biggest flaw?
How easily I fall in love... you have beautiful eyes.
2. How many field goals will you kick this season?
33 goals, 100% accuracy.
3. Do you ever give dramatic speeches in the locker room?
I feel like I`m more the reserved guy. I like to show my experssion through my kicks.
4. What do you think about before you kick the ball?
My ex's bf's face.
5. Which team will finish last this season?
Haha that's a tough questions to answer before the draft has happened. Ofcourse you don't wish to see any team finish last, but one of them has to be it. I`m going to have to say the Otters though, unless they draft me first overall ofcourse. :ph34r:
:interview: - @deadendpath27
Q: You ever kick/punt barefoot?
Only during practise for shits and giggles. Shit hurts my foot after a few kicks, but it's fun to do.
Q: How would you adapt to kicking/punting in crazy weather like downpour our snow?
Q: You ever do any cool trick plays?
Back when I did some punting in high school, I`d try a cheeky fake punt from time to time. I remember one time, I faked out and could just run the ball into the touchdown zone.
Q: Which way do you like the laces when kicking/punting?
Away from me. I fear that the laces will somehow interfear with my shoes and make me end up failing the kick.
Q: Have you ever messed up and kicked a guy right in his finger?
This has happed more often then I`d like to admit.
:interview: - @Ballerstorm
1.Have you ever tried kicking barefoot, like some old kickers did back in the day?
Only during practise. It hurts after a while man.
2. What is your favorite kick you have ever made in your career?
I touched on this one early in the questions, but the kick that ended up clinching a playoff spot for us during my first college year. Down by 2 and a lovely kick that made us win the game. It was against our rivals aswell which made it so much sweeter.
3. What does it take to be a clutch kicker when all eyes are on you to win the game?
Patience, a steady foot and a clear mind. It's important to forget all the people watching you and just focus on that ball.
4. How do you feel about punting?
Not my strong suit and not my prefered position. However if I end up on a team and I need to play the punt, I`ll do it for them.
5. What is the worst injury you have ever had to recover from?
I broke my arm as a kid when I fell out of a tree. I tried to reach a raven's nest and sit next to it, but slipped and ended up tumbling down. Luckily I always plannend on being the kicker.
:interview: - @RavensFanFromOntario
1. Do you think you honestly deserve to play in this league?
No, I should be ashamed of who I am for even thinking about entering the draft.
2. Why should people care about kickers?
We are also humans. #Kickerlivesmatter
3. In what way does making you play kicker help you get girls?
Girls love a guy who can come in clutch.
4. What kind of foot exercises do you do?
I do all the NFL approved workouts for the foot. The classic Half Kneeling Chop, Single Leg Bridges, Slider Lunges and ofcourse the half roller balance challenge. I also love foot rubs.
5. Do kickers generally have foot fetishes or is that just Raven?
Just me from what I've heard. Foots are wonderful things man. Have you ever truely looked at a foot and not thought to yourself, damn that's one hot foot.
:interview: - @NorthFloridan
1. If we pair up, are you ready for Montreal Impact levels of success?
Hell yeah! We`ll bring that Impact spirit to the LR and work the Impact magic.
2. Do you give the same level of thought to both long and short field goals?
Long field goals get a bit more thought. You just need to set them up a little more I feel like.
3. What is your opinion on "icing the kicker"?
I honestly feel like it just helps me. It let's me think the situation through for an extra moment. How's the wind right now? Is the ground in normal conditions. They call it as a sort of mind game, but you just need to roll with it. Don't let them try to get in your head.
4. Where do you think is the highest you will get drafted?
In this draft class I could honestly see myself go anywhere. I feel like I have some rep around the league, so I`ll probably not end up a last overal pick, but I don't really know where to expect myself to end up going.
5. Which other kicker scares you the most?
Anyone, but Bojo Benchsit too be honest. Maybe Harris, he's a good lad.
:interview: - @Tomen
1. Which things would you love to kick through the uprights?
Oh there's alot of things I`d love to kick through the uprights. One of the things that come to mind right now are a cabbage. I`d love to just kick the shit out of it and see it drop apart and go through the uprights. I now also know what the fork things are called so thank you!
2. How much do you love balls?
I love em alot, but not asmuch as this guy called McZerhl.
3. Do you think you can be the next Adam Vinatieri?
I sure thing so. Although I hope in a few yeas people will be asking others; Do you think you can be the next Turk Turkleton. but yeah I`d love to have a great career like this guy. Lead the league in alot of stats and just keep on having good years.
4. Besides the kicker which position is the most important one?
I think Quarterback. You can tell by howmany people want to be one and how they can control a game.
5. What is your pre-kick ritual?
I like to listen to some music while doing some practise kicks.
:interview: - Jogn
1. Ever been a part of a trick play? Did you run or throw at all in high school or college?
I was part of a running trick play when I did a bit of punting in high school. I faked out the punt and ran it into the touchdown zone.
2. 18 is incredibly young to declare for the draft - what made you feel you were ready after just one year in college?
I've actually already finished my second year of college. I feel like I can compete with the other kickers that are in the league right now and figured why not go for it. I have nothing to lose and alot to gain.
3. Would you be more keen to go to a team like Yellowknife or the rumored Toronto, due to the fact that you could buy a beer there next season?
I mean that would definatly be an added bonus of being drafted to one of these teams, but I`ll be happy to play anywhere too be honest. Booze isn't everything haha, unless I play as a train wreck, then Yellowknife sounds nice.
4. The Causeway Classic isn't as old as some other rivalry games, but how did you feel you preformed against Davis' biggest rivals? Did you leave anything on the field?
I sure did! In my first year I scored the winning field goal which clinched our playoff spot. Sacramento needed that win to stay in the race, but they ended up going out after that game.
5. Who is Best Girl?
Megumin ofcourse. Explosion magic is lit.
:interview: - @Jbearly
1. Would you rather go into the hall a kicker or punter?
Definatly a kicker. Punter isn't my prefered position and would love to stick to kicker and preform hall of fame worhty in that position.
2. does it hurt knowing you'll be respected being a kicker?
I don't know. Being respected sounds nice actually. I can't wait till I get drafted and start getting this so called respect!
3. Whats the worst injury you've had being a kicker or punter?
The worst was a sore foot, I've never really had any major injuries playing football.
4. Are you clutch in high pressure situations?
I am very clutch in high pressure situations. My nickname is Turk Cluchtington and I hope to keep this nickname while playing in the NSFL.
5. Do you have a body pillow because you know no one would marry a kicker?
I have a body pillow and I love her. She makes me happy and I can't wait to bring her to the city that drafts me and start our lives together there.
:interview: - @ErMurazor
1. Should special team players be inducted into the hall of fame?
Once my career as a kicker is over they will definatly add me into the hall of fame.
2. What's your favorite fruit?
My favorite fruit would have to be strawberries. Lovely sweet ones are the greatest. Add you can do so many things with them, even naughty stuff.
3. Have you ever been camping?
I went camping with my dad alot as a teen. I loved fishing during those trips and cooking what we caught. I once caught this huge trout and ended up preparing it by myself. Which was my first time doing it, it was very rewarding.
4. When was a time you were brave?
The day I stood up to my hometown bully who made fun of me for wanting to become a NFL kicker. Well look at my me now, larry! Mister big shot trash man.
5. What's your biggest fear?
Missing all my kicks during an import game.
