"Make it, take it" rule in effect tomorrow at Probowl as a test. (Onside kick alternative)
I think they are on the wrong track with this idea. The real answer is "Rock Paper Scissors."
Picture this: When the option is selected, the stadium announcer shouts out, "Roooooo Shaaaaaaam Beaaaaaauuuuuuuu!!!!!'
In that instant, all of the players leap up from the benches and match up with the opposing teams in a double elimination contest. Time limit is 1 minute for the entire process, and at the end, the team with the most players left has the option to take the ball at the 50.
Anybody who does not like this idea obviously has a low football I.Q.
