…is when the team defending the field goal calls time out to give the kicker more time to think about the kick he's about to attempt, in hopes that the pressure gets to him.
I can certainly see where the pic would be similarly distracting to think about - I only hope I could still come through in the clutch!
It means taking a time out to give the kicker time to think about the kick and add pressure to his situation.
And looking between them uprights would make any man wonder and drool!

Lol! You are a winner baby! Think I'll be able to keep ya busy during the time out & keep you distracted thereafter? HaHaHa!
The technical definition:
In the sport of American football or Canadian football, the act of icing the kicker or freezing the kicker is a tactic employed by defending teams to disrupt the process of kicking a field goal just prior to the snap. Typically, either a player or a coach on the defending team will call time out just as the kicker is about to attempt a game-tying or game-winning field goal. This is intended to either stop the kick immediately as the kicker is mentally prepared, or allow for the kicker to kick immediately after the timeout so that the initial kick doesn't count, in an attempt to mentally disrupt the kicker for the actual kick.
One variant of this tactic, attributed to Washington Redskins coach Mike Shanahan,[1] is to call time out from the sidelines just before the ball is snapped. This prevents the kicking team from realizing the kick will not count until after the play is over. However, this has the potential to backfire, as the kicker could miss the first attempt that does not count, or it could be blocked, but he could make the second attempt.
Under league rules, a team can only call one time out between plays. Teams that attempt to call two consecutive timeouts are penalized 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct, and the offense is awarded an automatic first down
Woo Hoo
I think when we meet, there won't be much icing going on... but maybe afterwards, I might need an ice pak!

As to how it relates to the picture I am unsure. I wouldn't want to kick you in the butt in that picture - a few other things maybe!! LOL!!
Apparently there was a delay in posts from Pauper & blue & according to the time stamps it looks like Pauper is the actual winner!
Any ideas what I should do with the runners up? Hey! I'm a flexible kinda gal! (giggles)
the term was started as icing the kicker because of a bare foot kicker. the the other team calling a timeout to get his foot cold while waiting to kick a crucial field goal.
So the little arrow missing the target has nothing to do with it?
Lol! that was an error in photoshopping. I was too lazy to start over. (embarrassed squinch)
I thought that was how "icing" related to the picture: Someone called a time out just as cupid was about to release his arrow, and he missed the target (the purple heart).
It may not be the "correct" answer, but it is the most creative.
