5 - Yard penalty marked off for encroachment. HL looks at chain and the sees the 5-yard tape and that ball is a football length behind the tape BEFORE the foul is stepped-off by Umpire. Tells Umpire to be-careful how he steps-off the yardage that it will be short for a first down. HL even marks on the field where the ball should be placed to help the Umpire. Yardage steps-off and place on ground. Referee decides that since the field has crooked lines, that a measurement is needed???? What U guys think. Keep in mind this is a JV game.
