NCAA replay
 
I'm not a fan of the replay but I guess it isn't a bad thing. However, there needs to be a time limit. During Oregon-Stanford game there was a shot that could have been a 3 pointer. They correctly reviewed it. Right away you could see from the TV that it was difficult to discern whether it was a two or a 3. View the camera angles and then move on and let the call on the floor stand if you can't tell. They take too long in football and they took way too long in this game. It isn't football where there are a lot more cameras either. View it and GO! After a few minutes I changed the channel and then it seemed like five more minute went by before the game finally resumed. Stanford completely lost the momentum they had. Not a fan of them but the game went from semi-exciting to downright boring because of it.

and no I don't buy the whole- they got to get it right. Basketball isn't meant to be played with extended delays like that. The fans watching on tv have to be factored in as well and it just diminishes the game when a review takes five+minutes.

You do not have to buy it. BTW replay is not going away. :)
