I think the officials by and large do a good job, but they do get it wrong sometimes and it needs to be corrected. For those people who say it takes too much time. Apparently, they don't really want to watch the game, want it over, so they can do something else. In my case, I want it called as right as possible, correcting mistakes in officiating as it goes, to ensure the contest is as fair as possible. There's a lot riding on every game and every play and I'm not talking about in gambling. I'm referring to the careers of players and coaches as well as the true enjoyment of the game by those paying to watch it.As for the bad officials, the replay situations and reviews by the home office chiefs of officiating is weeding them out. This is something that's necessary for the integrity of the game.I always think about how long MLB put up with Ángel Hernández who I don't think was good enough to call a T-ball game. He should have been gone before his first season was through.</blockquote>
