Default Re: replay in baseball

[ QUOTE ]
The games are long enough already. The replay would just make things worse. I say get rid of it for football too.
The thing is the calls even themselves out in the end. Also, I think that umps/refs would use the replay as a crutch thinking, "even if I miss the call the replay will bail me out." W/out the replay the refs/umps have more incentive to focus on the play and make the right call.

The calls don't even themselves out in a week long playoff series.

And the Umps would not use replay as a crutch and pay less attention, the umps still want to get the right call, do you think the umps like looking like idiots when they blow the calls?

I'm for instant replay in baseball, and this postseason has convinced me.
