Oh, if I were young again, I'd have a field day revolutionizing this kickoff business!!!

I'd be working on my curveball, slider and fake-right, kick-left all day long. I actually used to do that in the soccer off-season and was pretty good.

Now I must leave my trademarks to my 10-year old daughter and she can do whatever she wants with them.

I still miss booting it into that "sweet spot" on the ball!

Peace!

That second link is extremely informative...thanks for sharing, Rich. Cleared up a lot of my questions

Every returner is going to be unfettered in catching the ball, as no one can leave until it's caught or hits the ground. I suspect there will be kick specialists who will be developing a knuckle-kick and a few other trick kicks...and it has to be accurate, not just booting it long. Going to be interesting
