If there ever was a position in the sport of football that was considered to be “just” a position, it is that of the kicker. This position is perhaps the least appreciated and least respected in the history of the game.

The point guard is a vital playing position in the NBA. This players is responsible for handing over the ball to the right player at the right time.
