    Video replay... For what?
    Week 7 NFL

    Video replay:
    1) end of PIT @ MIA game. Mysterious call gave PIT the win. I still don't know what the refs saw that shouldn't have given the ball back to MIA after Roethlisberger fumbled it.

    2) refs in 1H call a TD for GB that was not, and take away a TD from MIN that was. The TD taken away from MIN was reviewed by them on video, and this call was the laugher of the day.

    On the same day:
    3) end of NE @ SD game. SD about to tie the game with a 45 yard FG in closing seconds. Refs call illegal motion on SD, but the video showed NE moving. In the best case, the call could have gone either way, but it was called in favor of the Pats on the decisive play of the game. SD's new kicker, now from 50 yards out, hit the goal post. Game NE.

    The beneficiaries of these game deciding calls: PIT, GB, NE.


    Welcome to the circus.

    My opinion: take it out of the hands of the replay booth and let the damn TV commentators make the call. They, along with everyone in America, can clearly see what the damn call is. We're seeing super slo-mo. Yet the booth finds a way to **** up something that we're all sitting there watching. I don't know how many times already this year I've heard the TV commentators say: "I'm not sure what they saw there."

    GB-Minny game was the icing this year as far as I'm concerned. I wish there was anything else to bet on on Sunday/Monday rather than the NFL.
