This is huge for us. It was painful to watch old man Berger hobble around every time he kicked the ball last year. Sepulveda is masterful at pinning teams inside the 10 yd line, and as we've all seen on youtube, ain't too bad at layin' some lumber if need be.

Don't be too high on Sepulveda's return. They spent a way higher pick than they should've on him, & he better return the favor. Those yinzer-women-swooning good looks don't mean dink if he's shanking 30 yarders.

I think we all could agree that Sepulveda performed way better in '07 than the pathetic efforts of Berger/Ernster. I think Berger was the master of the 30yd shank, then hobbling off the field. I'm glad we'll actually have a reliable punter who can win us field position next year.

Yeah...the 'ole ButtMeister was great at stumbling around like a three legged dog after each punt.

I would have bet he would cost us in the playoffs --- somehow, he did not.
