True. The alternative is to find a perfect official -- one who cannot possibly err -- to replace the fallible ones the NFL currently hires. Oh, wait, that's not possible...

NFL officials rarely make mistakes. When they do, it rarely affects the outcome. The Chargers and their fans are understandably upset and feel a sense of injustice after this low probability event.

But reason needs to trump those feelings, and they need to get over it, knowing that the officiating and rules systems in place are the best the league knows how to produce, given human fallibility. Anything more is just whinging.
