Wow, how innovative! Next we'll have 2 for 1 specials.
If the player pisses you off, you hit the scanner twice and give him two fouls.
What's next? Mechanically programmed coaches. We can input all the common comments from coaches and then the official can put in his standards answers. Quick and easy.
Sounds like you want this to come to pass and be out of a job. Why couldn't there be any number of referees sitting in the stands and calling fouls?
And come to think of it, some enterprising student will steal the computer codes, build himself a laser and 'zap' the visiting team.
Get real!
