So what will they do if a game clock, a timer, or an official has an error? Get rid of them too? What a stupid overreaction.

Kind of what I thought. I'm not sure how they figured out the PTS caused the error, but I do know it was in the early stages of when it came out. So I guess it's possible it could have been a small glich in the early models. Who knows... I do remember speaking to Mike Costabile about it last year and that's what he said. On the other hand, I guess it could of just been an excuse to drop using the system.
