Zauner Finds Niche As Special Teams Coach
Zauner Finds Niche As Special Teams Coach Article from: Take 5 Article date: January 17, 2008 Article by: Take 5 Rarely does a kicker get mentioned by football analysts in pre-game shows. Their job is a lonely one. But for Fountain Hills resident Gary Zauner, he’s in good company. The kickers he’s become acquainted with have achieved much success between the uprights. For this kicking and special teams coach, he’s built a reputation on helping kickers achieve elite status. Names like Gary Anderson, Eddie Murray, Nick Lowery and Jeff Jaeger. When Anderson finished the first perfect season by an NFL kicker in 1998 it was under Zauner’s tutelage. Since then Anderson has offered this testimonial of the coach’s technique on Zauner’s website: “Gary is easily the most knowledgeable kicking coach in the country. His approach of blending all the technical aspects of kicking with a practical common sense approach is one of Gary’s finest qualities. He can improve any kicker in a very short period of time and put you on a precise road to success. He is simply the very best!” But had it not been for Zauner’s persistence, the NFL might not have seen his coaching prowess. First Down Zauner says he had a passion for kicking and punting at an early age. In Wisconsin he won the local and regional punt, pass and kick competitions. From there he played in high school, excelling as quarterback, punter and kicker. As he became profi cient at kicking, several colleges took an interest. -

Woody Paige: Conservative John Fox Brings Broncos to Their Knees
Woody Paige: Conservative John Fox brings Broncos to their knees Woody Paige The Denver Post January 12, 2013 The cold, hard fact is the Broncos lost everything Saturday. And they blew it. They lost the overtime coin toss. They lost a cinch victory with 31 seconds left in the fourth quarter by blowing coverage. They lost the game on an intercepted pass late in the fifth quarter. They lost the playoff game early in the sixth quarter on a 47-yard field goal. They lost their chance at a ninth AFC championship game. They lost the opportunity for the franchise to win a third Super Bowl. Peyton Manning lost the prospect of playing a Super Bowl in his hometown of New Orleans and winning a second NFL championship. The Broncos lost the lead four times. They lost two interceptions and a fumble, all Manning turnovers. They lost a dozen arguments with the officials. They lost a rare home playoff game. The Broncos lost everything from the regular season in one historic postseason game. In a frozen conundrum on a Dr. Zhivago kind of day, in the chilliest and longest playoff game in Denver history, Ravens 38, Broncos 35. Rather than Holliday, Hillman and the Hallelujah High Way, it was to Hades in a Handbasket. Everybody shares the blame, but coach John Fox should get more than his share for his conservative approach. After the Ravens shocked a bitterly cold crowd with a 70-yard balloon bomb from Joe Flacco to Jacoby Jones, with just over half a minute to go, to tie the game for the fifth time, at 35-35, the Broncos had the ball at their 20-yard line, had two timeouts and had the quarterback who had produced more winning drives in the fourth quarter than anybody else who ever played the game. -
Madrid Close In
PREVIEW ISSUE FOUR – 24TH APRIL 2012 MADRID CLOSE IN REAL TAKE THE SPOILS IN THE EL CLASICO AND CLOSE IN ON THE SILVERWARE After a poor week for both sides in Europe, Real and Barca were desperate to grab a win against their biggest rivals on a dramatic, rain-lashed Saturday night at the Nou Camp. It was Real that grabbed the vital win and probably clinched the La Liga title. Los Merengues went ahead through German midfielders Sami Khedira and were comfortable for long periods, but Barca’s Chilean substitute Alexis Sánchez equalised with just 20 minutes remaining. Cristiano Ronaldo’s clinical strike just three minutes later settled the game with Madrid now seven points clear, with only four games remaining. Madrid coach José Mourinho named an very attacking team and his side began the better. Ronaldo’s early header from a corner brought a superb flying save from goalkeeper Víctor Valdés. His opposite number Iker Casillas was then quickly off his line when full-back Dani Alves dispossessed Sergio Ramos. The game was being played at a fearsome pace and French striker Karim Benzema brought the best out of Valdés again. Barca thought they had gone front when Alves had the ball in the net after a Cristian Tello run, but the youngster had been flagged offside. INSIDE THIS WEEK’S WFW Real’s brave start was rewarded when Pepe’s header from another corner was half- - RESULTS ROUND-UP ON ALL MAJOR stopped by Valdes and Khedira tackled an COMPETITIONS FROM AROUND THE hesitant Carles Puyol to push the ball into the WORLD net to put Madrid ahead. -
