    Technology shows us when a tennis serve is out or a soccer ball crosses the goal line. Why do NFL refs still use their eyes for first downs?http://nyti.ms/2oIGU76

        Because the dipshits at the @NFL don't even know when a catch is a catch yet. Maybe they should learn how walk before they try to run?

        The tennis and soccer cams are fixed and focused on one spot. Same goes for finish lines at track events....THATS the difference you fools

        It would constantly be changing opposed to fixed cams like in tennis or soccer. Thats why its so hard

        The chains are a joke. They should bleed injured players to allow the demons to exit their bodies.

        Sorry but that’s not a good comparison. How are they supposed to determine when the ball crosses a first down mark. The ball is obstructed by many things. You’re comparison to tennis and soccer is not valid.

        Then the game would be fair. And teams wouldn’t be able to make millions and billions and trillions. JK but for real. Fixed sport.
