WORLD CUP BAD CALLS

I am not the most ardent of soccer fans, but I do like to watch some of the World Cup games.


So far, in the 2010 events, almost every game I watched has had some questionable officiating, if not outright bad calls by the referees; and, it is not just me. Others have noticed the bad calls too.

These bad calls have brought up the subject of "instant replay" with millions of sports fans questioning why FIFA, the organization behind the World Cup contest, does not allow instant replay.

After all, it is 2010, and one would think that it is way past the time for FIFA to implement instant replay; so that two "off the field officials" can review calls, when requested to do so by the coach of a team.

For FIFA to continue to deny instant replay is not fair to the players, and it is not acceptable. There is no valid reason why FIFA could not set up an instant replay policy and procedure similar to that used in professional football in the USA.


Unfortunately, there are waaay tooo many ATNAs who are sports fans. Those are people who are ALL TALK, NO ACTION.

The millions of sports fans who are disappointed with the officiating at the World Cup events this year, need to let FIFA know about your thoughts and concerns. Now is the time to speak up and do that.
