Guess if you get in the habit of bagging a spot, then, if you need to move off the spot you don't have to remember to drop the bag. I don't like it that way.

What I truly don't like to see an official throw the bag to the spot and then move to it.
Agree 100% with Ed. Unless you've got players mixing it up OOB and another official isn't in the vicinity you stay on the spot. There is no need to drop a bag. I've seen wings throw the bag and then move to the spot - that just screams "lazy."
