"I am a speed demon, yes!"
While setup is still be happening, we were able to pull some strings so we could kick some field goals. That said, no one wants to kick by themselves.
So we went against the real competition: Kansas City. ABC7 News reporter J.R. Stone representing ABC7 News and the San Francisco Bay Area, against Cody Holyoke of the ABC affiliate in Kansas City. Cody seemed to think J.R. was working him when he saw the ABC7 News reporter kick one through the uprights during their practice round.
"Oh great, I'm getting - you just hustled me!" said Holyoke.
"No, no, no, no," replied Stone.

"I saw Jake Moody last night but I didn't really talk with him about this," said J.R.

Cody struggled a bit.

"We're focused on the Deebo Show, hoping for a McCaffrey show," said Stone.
"I like the idea of leaving it up to the pros to do this kind of stuff," continued J.R.
"Yes, clearly we are in no shape to be on the football field," said Cody.
The two the smiled and shook hands.
