Okay, serious answers only. I know this is going to be to a long shot, but what do I need to do to actually become a NFL kicker or punkers? Keep in mind that I have never played in college but I can kick a ball pretty darn far. Where can I get trained? Where can I get an agent? What's a good kicking distance I should strive for, yada yada yada.

If you honeslty think that you have a legit shot at making the NFL then realize you probably won't make it there first...
You can find an agent by looking in the local phone book, but if you can't kick a 50 yard field goal right off the bat for the guy, don't call him...You can probably find a coach but start off by just looking at some book...(there is one by the Bahr brothers that should help)...Practice practice practice...find a local semi-pro team to play for to get in actual game experience...it may take you two or three years before you are ready to call an agent and find a way into a combine or get a look but if you think you got it that is the best I can do for you.

a strong leg and a lot of luck. I guess you can find a sports agent over the internet that will take your case and they can pretty much take it from there. Also, some teams have try outs. The NFL might be a little tough at first, but maybe trying out for the AFL (Arena Football League) as well to get your name out. When you make it I would love to be your friend.

Practice kicking a frozen football in 30 mile an hour wind and sleet with dogs with rabies chasing you 60 yards in under 3 seconds and you should be good!

Talent, practice, mental toughness, and a strong leg. A good agent wouldn't hurt either!

I think arena football teams have open tryouts. Search to see which team is closest to you.

Teams have practice squads that do consider "walk ons".
