Doesn't do any "good" necessarily, but blowing it EVERY time just gives you consistency...I can't really argue that this practice is absolutely, 100% necessary, it is just another one of "those things" that I and many others have made habit, it doesn't hurt/hinder the game, and there are ocassions where it helps....
