Seriously, if all the officials phone in to some headquarters for assistance on a call, why the hell are the guys on the field (zebras) even paid? Just have a fukkin computer call the game then............

Honestly if it's anything like the NHL where all calls get reviewed in the war room in Toronto I'm down for it. If a call is reviewed it gets sent to the war room, where they have HDTV's and pretty much every available camera angle on site. The difference in the amount of time it takes to review the call is minimal too. It might even save the NFL some time, which as we all know is critical to the NFL experience. Way too often do we see a ref go under the hood and then take eternity to come back out.
As for the rest of the changes, they all look good to me, except for the 40 yard line kickoff idea (seriously, the kickoff will eventually be eliminated at this rate) and the PAT attempt change. I really like the cameras rule though, in this day and age the NFL shouldn't have any excuse for not getting a review right, much less "we didn't have the proper angle."
