If we're gonna review every call we think a ref fukked up, don't have refs

You're not going to review every call, they still only get 2(+1) challenges. You're just inventing obstructions at this point.
Although, if there were a way to efficiently review every call, without delaying the game, I'd be in favor of that too....what do you have against getting calls right, or rather getting more calls right?

it would only make sense that a packers steelers pats or cowboys fan was upset about thisThe Jets?
Why can't judgement be reviewed?
Edit: and they're NOT just judgement calls. Many times they're phantom visions. A ref *thinks* they saw the ball cross the goal line, replay shows it did not, we overturn it. A ref *thinks* they saw the defender push the receiver before the ball got there, replay shows he did not, but we're stuck with the consequences. Why?
And every call under 2 minutes of a game. Also, are you gonna review the penalties they don't call as well? Truth be told, someone's gonna hold or face mask on every play if you're gonna judge by the book. Then you're gonna have to call every ticky tack call that you otherwise could have lived with letting go at that point in a game. Even if I really didn't see shyt, the buzzer is gonna sound just to see if some real minor shyt went down. If as a referee you're not even allowed to make calls based off your judgment, don't have them out there. Just leave calls to those video mongers in NY.

Exactly. Now that the dust has settled, refs must enjoy that they no longer have to watch a replay of a "fumble" they called on the field all week on sportscenter with the runner's knee clearly on the ground. That mustve sucked for them.Ya and it aint really fair to refs either. People judge them based on slowmo replay from multiple angles. Giving refs a replay will help lessen their negative impact on the game.

I don't have anything against getting calls right, but we as fans are really spoiled by being able to use ultra HD slow mo replays to be able to say "that ref fukked up" even on calls that really could go either way depending on how you view it. Clearly they can't make replay calls in an efficient manner. Giving them more to analyze and judge will make baseball games look like they fly by.
EDIT: one more thing: how many challenge calls actually get used? Between the 2 challenges and the under 2 minutes, they get to all of them. You'll never get to every referee screw up. They'll botch more than you can challenge.
