It’s nice to know we are in good company when it comes to incompetent referees and umpires. The solution is simple, of course. Yet instant replay continues to meet opposition in baseball and World Cup soccer, where the officiating has been absolutely atrocious. I’m always amazed at how often things that can be easily solved just aren’t, mostly out of greed of some kind. So instead we are left with the outcomes of important games meaning absolutely nothing. Kind of takes the fun out of it, doesn’t it?
