[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 848067, member: 7261"] I think you know I agree with you and BTW, that egg you tossed at my face last night, just missed! ;) Here is the problem with the current state of the NFL and reviews, as I see it. Technology and evolution have made it basically impossible to go back to the way it was. Technology is going to make it very hard to pacify Las Vegas, the TV viewer and the tech geek fans that insist the game is officiated as perfect as possible. I don't have any clear cut solution, but I am starting to agree with you *insert drum roll* that while I do like correct calls being made, we all have to accept that when it comes to judgement calls, there is never going to be a "perfectly correct and consistent call", so *gulp* stop allowing judgement calls to be on the table as reviewable. The final observation is that of being at a game VS watching it on TV. I was at the game last night, saw a few of the typical bad calls (both ways), *****ed/cheered about them and was ready for the next play. When the game was over, if you asked me "was the outcome influenced by the officiating?" I would have been oblivious to what the TV viewer had seen, as well as this opinion of the Refs blowing calls that may have cost the Lions the game and answered that questions with a "no, it was your typically officiated game. They missed a few calls each way, but it balanced out in the end" I guess what I am saying, there is a big difference between being at a game and watching a game on TV. The TV experience is a high tech one of hearing the commentary, seeing all the slowed down camera angles and beginning the debate on how each call has now changed the potential outcome of the game. Whereas the fan in the stands, they are trying to watch a much lower tech game, enjoying the sounds and sights of the game and probably getting a bit annoyed at all the stoppages in that experience due to the technology of the game taking over.
