Bucs kicker Roberto Aguayo's struggles deepen

TAMPA — Over the past 12 days, the escalating struggles of rookie kicker Roberto Aguayo have become the biggest story of Bucs training camp.

In his first preseason game, he missed an extra point.

In his second, he missed two field goals.

And Tuesday, during a joint practice with the Browns, he missed three kicks, one so badly a national website posted a story on Aguayo with the classic cartoon of Charlie Brown flying in midair, with Lucy pulling the ball away at the last second.

Good grief.

That certainly was the reaction among some fans who packed One Buc Place for the practices open only to season-ticket holders.
