[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 764062, member: 7261"] Yup they call it...."Progress" and it has occured in pretty much every walk of life. Whether its technology or just a way of thinking, times change and in this case, I think have gotten better with replay. Go back and watch the original Star Wars movie. That was pretty cool when it was first released, but now the special effects really aren't that special. Before squad cars were equipped with dash cams, what happened at a scene was determined by everyone's testimony and memory of the events. Races were declared ties because they were "too close to call". Instant replay merely shows just how close some calls can be in football and just how much you have to rely on well defined rules and the correct interpretation of them by the people enforcing them, replay just aids in this process. I almost get the impression that you are less worried about getting a call right or wrong and it's mainly because you just don't like technology being a factor in determining it and the time it sometimes takes in doing so?
