While I think we can all agree that Petey is the epitome of ****ishness, he is on to something in calling for an onside kick. Because he did it -- and because it worked -- means future opponents must respect it. As opponents are forced to respect the threat of an onside kick, their normal kick return blocking will suffer, allowing overall net kickoff distance to improve.

C'mon Riverboat Bob: Learn from the dark side and call for an onside kick in the second or third quarter.
