almost all calls in football are judgement. what the official sees. You make punish an official over a judgement call, you are not very smart. Officials make descisions based on what they see. Human eyes can only see so muchs, and the human brain can only process that at a certain speed. Just like one MLB umpire once said, "If they replace us with robots, you know what would happen, they'd smash it every time it ruled against them." Very true in all sports. In football they could just tackle it When doing baseball, will you ever here from your assignor? "You missed that last call. It was about 1" below the knees. You are not working anymore games for awhile, as it caused that team to lose. You also missed that play at home, his foot got to the bag at the exact same time the he was tug." NO! People can only do so much, if you expect more then human capability, you must not be human.
