Nah it's an excellent change, we just need to only use it to fix obvious miscalls. We've unfortunately moved to spending 5 minutes on 50/50 decisions multiple times a game, and it's no good.



If it were just used for black and white calls and obvious boundary calls it would be fine.

Instead its being applied to judgment calls and things that take forever to figure out and then they just leave everyone confused and/or angry when the call is finally made.

A lot of times it's also the league being dumb in how it is implemented too. Like in the NFL I have no problem having replay for catches/turnovers ect. but have a dedicated official to it where he has the replays available asap so the game can continue. It's incredibly annoying when the play can happen, the tv broadcast shows the replay in slowmo showing the close call and then 15 seconds later you see the officials on the field start walking to the booth to look it over.

Now if you wanna talk about the NHL, fuck the offsides challenge. It's a terrible solution to a problem no one thought was an actual problem and has only made me hate the NHL even more over the years.
