INDIANAPOLIS – Adam Vinatieri hit the game-winning field goal on Sunday, beating the final horn and the Miami Dolphins with one swing of that magical, mystical leg, his 32-yard field goal lifting the Indianapolis Colts to a 27-24 victory on Sunday.
And that’s not the kick anybody wants to talk about. Not Vinatieri. Not me. Not the other reporters with the microphones and cameras and shy smiles, wondering how to ask the greatest kicker of all time about … the other one.
Because really, what’s the news here? That Adam Vinatieri won a game – sorry, that Adam Vinatieri won another game – with a kick in the final seconds?
