Wouldn't this be sweet...the championship game ends on the play I posted above. Celebratory pandemonium breaks loose. Some kids are screaming, some kids are crying, some are piling up in the infield, the fans are going wild and the television announcers are spouting their usual analytical drivel...

Wait! get 'em back out on the field! The game's not over! The officials we've chosen to call our most important game aren't able to get the most basic routine call right!

And if you say that is an unlikely scenario...then you're saying that reviewing the final play of the game, no matter how routine or obvious, is redundant.
