Nothing Wrong With Harper's Hit...Officially

All good ideas .... but this is a game played by humanoids .... who make mistakes .... in the end and typically, the calls even out. Can you honestly say we did not benefit on the Sproles TD? Besides .... if they actually do make a change, we would have less to banter about.

We did, and if the humanoids could figure out how to use walkie talkies it would have been reviewed.

I know the refs have a league-sponsored rating system, but I'm not sure how they are rewarded or punished for good or bad officiating. In their defense it is a fast game and the league is pushing them to call EVERY thing.

Gotta be some way to correct obvious mistakes, but if they can't use a walkie talkie then I'm not really sure what can be done.

i know its crazy, but we lived 100 years without replay, and football was good.

I know everyone else is perfect out there, especially, for example, you musicians when there is that note that just ... errrr.. that reminds me.... can you throw a flag when a musician plays a bad note? ...in all seriousness, it's a game where sheet happens!

more corroboration ...
