[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 761800, member: 7261"] So fix it by "blurring the lines"? This is what you effectively are doing by only allowing a review to be seen "no slower" than 75% of real time. On top of that, add the fact that any monkey with a recording device sitting at home can replay it frame by frame and probably get the call correct and when that call comes back wrong, because the officials couldn't review it frame by frame, what next? It's almost like you are saying "we admit we won't get the calls right, but we have an excuse, we tied one hand behind our backs". If you are willing to make exceptions for players feet out of bounds and do frame by frame for that, aren't you saying that this is a better way to get a call correct? After all, review is to get the call correct, why would you want to throw up obstacles in doing that? Figure out and clearly define the parameters of what makes a call correct and make sure those parameters are being met by using the latest and best technology that the NFL can pay for, to get it correct. Of course those opposed to replay at all or just letting the refs call them as they see them, then get rid of replay all together, but don't make it an even worse process by weakening the technology used. Remember, if the refs are the sole judge, they are still going to call them based on what the rules say or at least what they see. [/QUOTE]
