 Although it is true that the measurement chains have the little
 "doodad' to put on the lines to line up the chains, my question 
 is: How can the zebras be sure that the chain is parallel to the
 sideline? If the chain is off by say 5 degrees, then the 
 measurement will be off by just under 3 inches, and we've all seen
 measurements closer than that.
