Instant Replay

Well, I'm going to way in on this topic. I've been on the road all week, and I've been watching the NBA playoffs a bit. I realize that I've watched cumulatively 1 quarter of the NBA this entire season, but, now I'm watching the playoffs. It's the "second season" after all, so why bother with the first one? Anyhow, I've finally drawn my concusion about instant replay. GET RID OF IT. I watched the referees go to the monitor to determine who gets the ball that gets batted out of bounds. We waited 4 minutes while they watched, rewound, watched, rewound....oh give it up! Just call it a jump ball if you don't know! That's what all the other levels do. It was a major waste of time that could have been cleared up by the simple jump ball. The second was a shot at the end of a quarter and it went out of bound. The referee said put up 3/10ths of a second, but then they spent 3 minutes at the monitor to determine that .8 should have been up. Wow. Just put up what you think and get on with it! The NBA is a great example of why people HATE instant replay.
