So finally after all is said and done, then can line back up and start all over again. (did i mention the numbers confuse them too much?? it takes at least five minutes for each play to be calculated... 4 yards minus 2 yards equals 2 yards, 1st and 10, 4th down, there's a lot of math involved that really complicates things for them)
