Madden NFL 08 Kicking troubles:(

[masterof]

Ok I been playing madden since atleast 1997 I have played it on my pc now for 3 years.My problem is I have a sidewinder gamepad that has no analog sticks or thumbsticks.So I set the controls up the way I like them,keyboard is way to nagging to play with.So I get in game and go to kickoff and it says to use the right analog?I tried moving every button on my gamepad but nothing.So I went back and started another game with keyboard and it has a very simple kickoff method,like it used to be.Does anyone know a way around this without using the keyboard or buying a new gamepad?I just want to make sure I am not overlooking something simple.Under the configure controls there are NO kickoff setups.If there is a fix that someone knows about plz help.Just last year the kickoff button ws the same as the hike ball button Plz help.
