You're right about this being pointless and yes, I see Umpires placing the ball at the rear edge of the 20. Again, pointless but incorrect on their part. [/B]
I agreed that his arguement was flawed and it was a pointless discussion. But the point you brought up made me think about where the ball is placed. He made the point that distances might not be what they seem to be. No, the field isn't 99 8/9 yards long but trys might be 3 yards 2 inches long and drives after touchbacks 80 yards 2 inches long.
