Legend

Nothing better than a true grit story. Coming from nothing, rising, falling, dusting yourself off, and going even bigger in the end. It ain't your skin color people.

Death threats on a sports performance is wild. Some people are too invested into it.

they probably gambled their life savings on it lol .. no way you can get that emotional and hurt you want to send death threats because your favorite team lost lmao@@abouttime2569

It's LA man -Californian

@@abouttime2569 probably bet some money they shouldnt have lol

Opportunity just ain't there due to where most Asian people live. It's not even just a cultural thing. Most Asians live in California or NY, urban city centers. I went to a magnet school and was actually on the wrestling team and track team. I wanted to try playing football but we didn't have a football field or team..... I did have a cousin who lived in Central Florida though and he had the opportunity to join his HS team, but it was competitive AF in his region, so he never even got a chance to play (guys on his team went D1) And there's also the issue of race... even if you get lucky enough to live in a region where you could play, was interested in playing, school had a team/field, coach might not ever even let you get off the bench (I had another cousin who was a freak of nature athlete [he's 6'5 280] but his coach was super racist, just straight up said he didn't belong)

That younghoe koo as hell

Chargers did him dirty honestly. He was rookie and they expected way too much out of him. Glad he found his groove with ATL

@@HisDudeness_69If the chargers kept onto him he would never have gotten training from that HOF kicker and truly been a superstar.

​@@Jerbt Now I see why the Chargers didn't keep Drew Brees. Only the Chargers. F. U. Spanos.

@@HisDudeness_69 what? what else could you expect with a kicker? he missed so many fgs in a short time he was the starter. the Chargers also didnt have the patience anymore since we were rotating through kickers a lot during the time because they where all horrible

@@HisDudeness_69 Chargers has historically been rich at Kicker. Nate Kaeding had like a 91% field goal percentage before his downfall. He choked in the playoffs but mostly accurate kicker. Now we have Dicker the kicker who is really really good too. We also had Dustin Hopkins who is making miracles in Cleveland. That's why Chargers see kickers as dispensable because they've been so lucky that they are taking it for granted.

TRANSLATION - Younghoe Koo! Korean NFL fans are sincerely rooting for you!! go for it!!

@@MistyMountainVideo Lol. Online translation. Yeah, that last word is actually "Fighting!" I don't know what it's being transliterated as "Go for it."

Actually in Korean the phrase "화이팅" doesn't really mean fighting.. @@NerdilyDone

Good for Korea

@@NerdilyDone dude! ‘화이팅’ means ‘Go for it’ or ‘Let’s go!’ Thx anyway :)

The black ones ya

And illegals

Don’t forget the hood guys

Yes, better than half of Los Angeles!

hes a true american

To be fair - the NFL is not a training ground for kickers. They expect high performance from day 1 and if you can't do it, they can easily replace you. The falcons would have cut him as well in his rookie year. He was only given a second chance after he improved himself AND proved himself in another league.

I think you could argue if he had not been cut by the Chargers, he might have never ascended to the level he is at now

Exactly

This!

I was there when he converted THREE onside kicks against the Saints. One was called back but still incredible odds. Love Koo, hope he gets back in the groove next year
