[QUOTE="Mondio, post: 843225, member: 10441"] I've already said all i care to about replay. It's a game played by humans and no 2 are called a like. There are different flows, different calls etc between teams of officials and games. Week 1 is always called far differently than week 15 or playoffs. I'm fine with it because it will never be 100% I'm ok with a human game, played by humans being called by humans on the spot. Has never bothered me, even when I played. I think replay is degrading the officials with keen eyes as they are now trained to rely on replay, ie my example in Detroit. So they got one right yesterday and didn't get one right in Detroit for us last year and still won't correct the absolute horseshit call against Matthews last year or the Denver guy with "roughing" last night. one play is more important than the other? you see where i'm going? the only way to "fix" it is to "fix" them all and the only way to do that is add more replay. Don't mind waiting, fine, will you if you have to sit thru 20 plays replayed? and I think a single official trying to "fix" a game would be a fairly easily uncovered offense. He'd have to make enough calls to get the "fix" in or risk not being able to fix it. That would be seen in review of these officials. a league official is well insulated from that and when you only review the "big" plays like scoring ones, where a shifting ball is something and sometimes nothing, betting lines could easily be interfered with. I worry, because i'm old enough to see what gambling has done to other sports and everything around football is changing to cater to the gambling crowds, heck, half of sports programming is talking about betting lines these days. anyway, I don't like where it's heading, back to MN /Packers. I was fine with a TD being called [/QUOTE]
