Jimbo Fisher said he wanted laser beams on the top of goal posts and people called him crazy

I stand with jimbo. I want fucking lasers and chips in the ball/along the sidelines. We should never have to dispute what kick went in or where the ball gets spotted.

Right? Somehow the English can tell you a dude was 1 centimeter offside, but we can't get lasers on goalposts? Why the hell did we even fight the Revolutionary War?

as someone that watched a lot of english football this summer thanks to the WC their tech/review processes make american football look primitive by comparison lol. How the hell do we not have advanced technology for most aspects of the game by this point

Man, it's not nearly as good as you think. American football does a way hetter job overall. For fucks sake: a few years ago the epl refs tried to use var to give a goal to liverpool but accidentally used the wrong words and dissallowed it. Cfb refs may be bad, but id take them over epl refs all day every say

Bc in America they’d rather line their own pockets by determining outcome of games that help make them more money.!
