We've had eight games so far and only one measurement and is with leaving the ball where it lies after every first down. It's not a big deal evenon the poorest of markings on the field.

It's also the opinion of every major college conference and NFL so I'm going to go with it. That's where we learned the mechanic.
It's only a difference of a half yard at the beginning of the series. The times you don't do it is when the offense barely picks up a first down or if they are inside the 10. Yes...I mean the yardline markers. I think everyone understood what I meant.
