And without a clear look at the left foot and ball status, I really am not calling a travel based on this angle. There is a reason why we want officials closer to the lane than this official appeared to be standing and definitely closer than this camera angle. Just because we are looking from a fixed position far away (in the backcourt of this play I might add) from the Trail, does not mean that is a better angle or look than the Trail on this video had. I must make it very clear again, the officials on the game passed on this play for a reason. What that reason was we will just have to ask them.

Hey, I fully agree with you on the lack of a call....all I was saying was that the camera was exactly the view the trail had....pretty much looking right through his head. The distance is irrelevant with a camera since you can zoom and post process....replay cameras used for various sports might be up to 100-500 feet from the play.
