A Better Way to Decide Overtime in the N.F.L. - http://fifthdown.blogs.nytimes.com/2009...
"Each coach writes down a yard-line at which they would elect to start their offense. The numbers are given to the referee in sealed envelopes; whichever coach picked the lower yard-line wins the auction and get the ball first. The game plays out in sudden death." - Gary Burd from Bookmarklet
Really great in theory, but hard to imagine this getting implemented in the NFL. Also, what if both coaches write down the same yard-line? Do it again? - Dan Hsiao
