birdz4i Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Falcons kicker Matt Bryant took the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge earlier this summer. Now, Bryant has pledged to give money to ALS for every field goal and extra point he makes.Falcons kicker Matt Bryant has been clutch in the first three games of the season, already making four field goals, including a season-long 52-yard attempt, as well as all 13 extra-point attempts thus far.Bryant took to Twitter Monday morning, announcing a pledge he made to donate $100 to the ALS Association for every kick, field goal and extra point he makes during the 2014 season.In 2008, Bryant’s dad, William F. “Casey” Bryant, Jr., was diagnosed with ALS. After a hard-fought battle, Bryant’s dad passed away in 2009 from the disease, early Christmas morning.http://www.atlantafa...c9-e4959d458e52sorry. i d rather make news for this, then some the other stuff going around the league.

etherdome Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 He lost his father to ALS and I think that he lost a child around the same time. Every time he lines up a kick, I think about the sorrow he has felt. God bless him, and I hope his success sends him to the poor house ( jk ).

fuego Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 You notice this happened after the Bucs game. He saw how prolific our offense was with scoring TDs, and since he didn't have a FG in that game, figured he wouldn't have to pay any money out the rest of the season.
