in Caption This!
Email
PrintNow that we're in the full swing of the offseason, I thought it might be fun on occasion to bring back our Caption This! contest from last year. This probably won't happen every single week during slow times, but I'll try and roll it out as often as possible.
For this first caption back, we've got the Pro Bowl punters from the Bay Area in Andy Lee and Shane Lechler. For those that weren't when we ran these last year, nominate your favorite submissions by Rec'ing the comment. How do you Rec a comment? Well first off, you have to be a registered member of the site (it's free and easy). When you see a comment that you like, there is a button you can click on called "Actions." After you click on that you'll see "Rec" and "Flag." Click on Rec.
In a day or two I'll see what the most Rec'd submissions are and we'll set up a poll for those. So, get creative and then Rec away.

Andy Lee bets Shane Lechler 4 footballs that he can’t pick which hand Andy is holding his helmet in. Lechler won.
A hearty thank you to Rich Aurilia for all the good memories, and to the Niners for finally getting the uni's (mostly) right.
Hm..
Lee: “Yeah, no I understand man. You don’t have your helmet because playing for the Raiders kind of nullifies Pro Bowl honors, perfectly reasonable.”
I chose water over wine... Jars of formaldehyde... think of all the things I missed... Why'd you make me a scientist?
Pro Bowl punters Andy Lee and Shane Lechler stand at midfield, discussing their mutual admiration for fellow Pro Bowl punter Chad Ochochinco.

Shane Lechler looks on, baffled at Andy Lee’s inhuman ability to place four punts all within two feet of each other.

Andy Lee’s unbelievably good posture proved to be the primary story of interest in this year’s Pro Bowl, as nobody cares about the actual game.

Shane Lechler stands eyes downcast, a little bit scared but slightly jealous of fellow punter Andy Lee, who just finished telling Lechler about his internet stalker, Fooch.

Should we even have a poll?
I think it’s pretty clear that this one with 24 Rec’s earned the right to claim the “caption this” contest.

2 punters ponder on whether they would be here if their offenses could convert 3rd downs.
Well, we're waiting....
As it turned out, characterizing Andy Lee as “the goose who lays the golden eggs” was slightly misleading.

Shane Lechler can’t hide his surprise at seeing Andy Lee prior to this year’s Pro Bowl. Before meeting his fellow punter at the event, Lechler would have sworn that punting was serious work on the glutes.

Andy Lee and Shane Lechler
play balls out on the field
Andy Lee:
“Maybe if I turn sideways he can’t see me. Then I won’t get eaten”
Shane Lechler:
“Yeah, I don’t know why I’m wearing long sleeves in Miami.”
[possible addition: “In Oakland I do it to ward off Al Davis’ clammy hands of death”]
Shane Lechler still can’t believe that nobody questioned his entry into this year’s 14- to 15-year-old Punt, Pass & Kick competition. As it turns out, he fit right in with a bunch of ’roiding teens.
Though Andy Lee also entered himself in the 14- to 15-year-old bracket, competition regulators rejected his entry, stating: “It’s ridiculous for a scrawny, baby-faced kid like Lee try to play so far above his age group.”

In the showdown at the OK Corral
Andy Lee comes armed with a secret weapon.
Yes Drew K, Tim Tebow will probably get picked in the first round.
Thighs?
Lee: “How do you get those extra 3.5 yards for your average?”
Lechler: " It’s all in the thighs"
Lee: " Thighs?"
After Realizing they weren't salty chocolate balls...
Lechler apologized to Andy Lee for the extra shine on his practice balls.
Lechler explains his diet program to Lee: “Just do what Sea-bass does.”
A hearty thank you to Rich Aurilia for all the good memories, and to the Niners for finally getting the uni's (mostly) right.
Shane Lechler attempts to give superior punter Andy Lee a “good game” ass-tap, until realizing Andy Lee in fact has no ass…

Lee: “Dude, you look like Ben Roethlisberger”
Lechler: "Yeah, well you look like the best player on your team! Your QB sucks, your RBs are awful, your WRs are a joke, and your owner is a braindead retard! God, a punter that’s the best player on his team. How pitiful!
Lee: “No dude, that’s actually you. Think about it for a second.”
