Tex/Ana Obstruction Replay

(Then they screw up INT in the Yankee game... so - you can review OBS but not INT --- that's ridiculous).

I agree this is a bad precedent- doesn't make sense. And i wonder what kind of trickle down effect this will have on game played in HS etc.,

Thanks

Thankfully, very few HS games are telecast with a crew somewhere else to call upon to review tape replay. So, trickle down effect is negligible.

True, but EVERY Momma & Daddy has a video camera.
