I agree wholeheartedly. Never been a fan of any instant replay to make or change calls. Sports are human contests and should be judged by humans in real time. Until I hear evidence that refs or umps are compromised, I say do away with reviews....in all sports. Except maybe photo finishes....I need to think about that one.
I disagree. The better team, performing better than their opponent should win the games. Not be determined by random bad or non call. That said, the NFL lost me as a fan a few years ago, minus about 4 hours of Chiefs games prior to the playoffs, because of the bad calls, compounded by 6 minute delays where the refs get the call wrong a second time- this time in slow motion.
In order to save the city, they'll have to burn it down. Can you even fathom even more replays and delays?
Nope.
Somehow men don't wear pads or helmets and beat the hell out of each other with drama or 4 hour games. What is the allure of the NFL?
