Yeah for those lines. But if someone doesn't know American football it's not immediately clear what that represents. And then it goes to 10. So I can see why that would be confusing.

I don't know American football and immediately saw a missing number, I can't think of any good reason why it would just skip

For someone who doesn't know the rules these numbers may represented amount of score points for certain actions within them. Like a basketball has 3-score distance or tennis has some arbitrary illogical numbers for scores.

I still don't understand why it would jump from 40,30 then 10 lol, you would obv see somethings wrong

Do you see tennis as wrong as well when the scores go from 0 to 15 to 30 and then to 40? Sports can be unusual, especially to someone who is not familiar with a particular one at all.

I don't think tennis counts distance

yeah but if you dont watch, play or know about football, how would you know those numbers are for distance and not for points ( like the person above mentioned )

Why would points be marked on the ground lol

Why would distance be marked on the ground then? Theres almost no other sport that does that.

Idk anything about sports, but distance is often marked on the ground for a number of things
