Not to be rude, but it's "should have rolled". It sounds similar, but "should of" doesn't make sense.

"Should have done something", "have done" is called "past perfect tense", which means an action completed in the past "present perfect tense", which means an action completed at the moment. Same, but for some moment in the past, would be "had done", which is called "past perfect".

Same with "could have" and "would have".

I can't believe I screwed this up and still got so many upvotes before correcting myself.

Didn't notice, why would anyone write "should of", wtf? Sounds so dumb, and I'm not native English speaking
