Every time they show the ball missin...Yes, agreed. Every time they show the ball missing a first down by like 2 inches, I laugh. But I have to believe that it "evens out" for teams over time, in a win-some lose-some sort of way. Also, now that ball placement is a challengeable call, I don't mind it quite as much.Nickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15614845410446113639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1232997740963687513.post-47567204963755169732009-10-26T07:19:40.990-04:002009-10-26T07:19:40.990-04:00Yup, I laugh every time they bring out the markers...Yup, I laugh every time they bring out the markers.Alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01695509619557410413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1232997740963687513.post-78441276580765551802009-10-25T20:08:36.584-04:002009-10-25T20:08:36.584-04:00Because I'm a math-obsessed freak, I actually ...Because I'm a math-obsessed freak, I actually <a href="http://riebecca.blogspot.com/2007/10/adventures-in-measurement.html" rel="nofollow">wrote a post</a> all about this a while ago. From my calculations, when they place the ball so back on the first down line based on the chains, it could be off by more than 4.5 inches!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06927630155994067676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1232997740963687513.post-56803237891316423842009-10-25T19:50:25.192-04:002009-10-25T19:50:25.192-04:00I totally agree.

And the chains are a joke.Psych Post Dochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02820776188567097127noreply@blogger.com
