Field Goal (American and Canadian Football) - Successful Field Goals

Successful Field Goals

The method of resuming play after a successful field goal, if there is any time left in the half, has some differences between American and Canadian football. In American football the scoring team kicks off to the opposing team. In Canadian football the scored-against team has three choices: scrimmage from its 35-yard line, kick off, have the scoring team kick off.

Famous quotes containing the words successful, field and/or goals:

    The most successful career must show a waste of strength that might have removed mountains, and the most unsuccessful is not that of the man who is taken unprepared, but of him who has prepared and is never taken. On a tragedy of that kind our national morality is duly silent.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    They talk about a woman’s sphere,
    As though it had a limit.
    There’s not a place in earth or heaven.
    There’s not a task to mankind given ...
    Without a woman in it.
    —Kate Field (1838–1896)

    If people would forget about utopia! When rationalism destroyed heaven and decided to set it up here on earth, that most terrible of all goals entered human ambition. It was clear there’d be no end to what people would be made to suffer for it.
    Nadine Gordimer (b. 1923)
