        Because those two posts with a chain work. If its not broke, don't fix it. That chain can't get hacked. Just saying. From someone who works with technology just remember: KISS. Don't fall prey to buzzwords.

        They'll never move to anything like that anyway. I mean, look how long it took them to simply extend the uprights a few feet to stop having to make super weird calls on FG and PAT kicks.

        Game's slow enough now with technical stops & commercials. Don't need more reasons to have refs stand around & look into monitors.

        Or just produce video simulations and show those instead. What’s the point?

        Why won’t baseball do it for calling balls and strikes?

        That would be a nightmare - strike zone is different for each batter due to their height.

        But what about when they show kzone on tv? Seems to work fine there.

        I think I misunderstood what you were referring to - are you saying so ump's can "accurately" call balls/strikes? Or, so we could just see it on TV?

        I’m saying the kzone that we see on tv for every pitch seems to be more accurate than an ump behind the plate looking over 2 players.
