[QUOTE="Mondio, post: 764055, member: 10441"] I get that, do you think there was controversy about what is or isn't a catch in 1988 the way there is in 2018? Replay has absolutely changed the way they defined the catch or attempt to. Everyone thinks they need to get it right, because now it can be reviewed. The problem is, you'll never be able to define them in a way that is consistent. There will always be a play that looks like a catch, but isnt according to rules. And if they get rid of that, then and include those then lots of things that weren't catches, now will be called catches. Unless of course you want to allow for a referees discretion, which brings us right back to where we started. [/QUOTE]
