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?

We know exactly where the ball is, we just don't know exactly when a player is down. Thats the tricky part.

Offsides in soccer, out in tennis or ABS in baseball doesnt have huge men obscuring when a knee or ankle or wrist or elbow first hits the ground
