Icing the kicker

Following up on the earlier thread, it looks like icing the kicker/shooter might actually work.

Math Trek: The Iced Foot Effect, Science News Online, Nov. 13, 2004: "Using their model, Berry and Wood calculate that, for an average kicker, the estimated probability of a successful 40-yard kick in sunny weather is 0.759. The estimated probability under the same conditions for an average kicker who has been iced is 0.659."
