SAMs "fumble"

[Steffy08]

It was a complete crap call on the field and in the replay booth especially.  But Steffy, how would getting rid of replay changed the outcome on that?

It wouldn't; but I can live with mistakes made in real time.

Why is that?  In this case, since the screw up was made both on the field and in the replay booth, we (ksu fans) have more of a right to complain about it than if there were no replay.  However, since replay more often than not ensures the correct call was made, why is that a bad thing you would want to go away?  Makes no sense either way.

Good point; getting screwed on replay gives us more of a right to complain.  Great argument for keeping it; I can't believe I had never considered that.

I asked you two questions in my last post, and you answered neither of them.  To address the "more of a right to complain" argument more fully, I am glad it was reviewed because that stoppage of play allowed them to show it multiple times on TV and the announcers to both agree that it should definitely have stayed KSU's ball.  Everyone watching it on TV had no doubt we got screwed over.  If there were no stoppage of play, people would have more easily forgotten about it and fewer replays shown.  If there was bias involved, there is now much more of a case to prove that, and the Big 12 Supervisor of Football Officials may have to issue a statement addressing it.  It won't change the outcome of this game, but anything to help eliminate future errors like that would be a good thing, no?

I'm not even going to debate someone who is arguing for replay on the basis that everybody will know for sure who got the bad calls. I felt so much better when Rodney said we got screwed

The call was made by the OSU players, refs saw OSU player with ball and gave it to them on the field.  This is exactly the kind of play replay is made for.

No, the argument for replay is that more often than not, it ensures the correct call was made on the field.  You disagree with that?  And you are the one who said "I can live with mistakes made in real time", but you won't explain how that is somehow "better" than a replay mistake.
