So what should happen on kicked ball, make the player who kicked the ball sit out for a minute?

I have to admit, I'm not understanding your point. You said there's no penalty for a kicked ball. I can sort of understand that when the defense is guilty. They just stop the game and give the ball back to the team that had it.

But my point is that when the offense kicks the ball (or causes it to go out of bounds), there is an obvious penalty. The ball is given to the other team.

The penalty is never severe, like free throws or temporary disqualification; but there is a clear penalty nonetheless.
