  • Seattle XFL Kicker Ernesto Lacayo Talks XFL Experience, Kick Strategy Development and Career | Ep 89

    4DE Nation! In quite possibly one of the last XFL interviews before the season ended due to the Corona Virus, we had an amazing talk with XFL Seattle Dragons kicker Ernest Lacayo. At the point of this interview, we were 5 games into the season. It was a great talk to learn more about what the XFL is like, some new developments in kicking strategy as well as a reflection on his career as an Arena kicker who earned an opportunity to play at the professional XFL level. We think you'll enjoy this conversation and learn more about some of the inter workings of the XFL. Enjoy!

  • Retired NFL & Big 10 Referee Tom Barnes Talks Special Teams and Game Experiences | Ep 84

    4DE Nation! We have a very fun interview for you! We spoke with retired NFL and Big 10 referee Tom Barnes. His experiences include 26 years as an NFL referee (44 years over his career) and 513 NFL games including 1 Super Bowl, 3 Pro Bowls, 6 Conference Championships, and 17 NFL Playoff games. This discussion has a fun twist to it as we talked special teams from a referee stand point and we loved his perspective on everything from punt coverage, possible KO elimination, and even controversial calls such as the ball flying over the top of field goal upright. We also discussed a variety of fun topics including his experience at Super Bowl 28 (1994) between the Bills and Cowboys, his 5 favorite athletes he enjoyed watching play and even his top 5 NFL and Big 10 stadiums to referee in. Once a referee, always a referee, as he still analyzes referees when watching the game from the living room! We loved this conversation and we hope you do too!
