We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

when punting - yes --- with kick-offs it is tricky because you absolutely don't want to kick it out of bounds and give them the ball on the 35 ---
I agree with you - to a point...I'd rather give them the ball at the 35 (or whatever it would be if the rules have changed) than give up 7 and momentum. Of course, they could always force us to rekick, like Richmond a few seasons back, and put us further behind the 8 ball.

The cure is to have sound kick coverage teams.

yeah beau I believe the rule is the ball is placed 30 yards from where it was kicked - unless they changed that as well --- :mrgreen:
