Jeremy Kapinos. Paul Ernster. Durant Brooks. Danny Baugher. These are the four guys that Packers brought in for punter tryouts, and the only way you've ever heard of them before is if you are related to them. Because of this, I really didn't care who the Packers selected, as long as it wasn't the guy who was arrested for assaulting his father in a fast food parking lot at 4 a.m. after being cut by the Patriots (Baugher).In the end, the Packers went with Kapinos, who punted in one game last year with the New York Jets. He was a Ray Guy award finalist for Penn State after the 2006 season, but then again, that didn't mean much for this former Packers punter.
He'll join the team for practice on Thursday, and has relatively no expectations for the remainder of the season. All he's got to do is be better than Derrick Frost, which probably won't be too difficult. It helps too when all that your head coach expects of you is that you "punt the ball in the right direction", as McCarthy told reporters on Wednesday.
Good luck, buddy.

you should know of durant brooks, who beat derrick frost out for a job in washington, making frost readily available!
Hey Winks, before you go talkling about things you have no idea what you're talking about. Maybe know who it is and what the final outcome of the situation was before speaking... Danny Baugher is the best kept secret in the NFL shadows. A Ray Guy Award finalist as well and one of the most real human beings you can speak with. Also the outcome of the situation had Baugher aquitted of the charges and were completely dismissed.
Slanche,
