On ESPN they made a poll about which sport's officiating are you most questionable of? Or something like that. Overwhelmingly, the answer was the NBA officials. I was surprised to see that, I voted NFL cause of ball placement and penalties.

Also, on the Twins game the other night about 70% of all voters said theyd be open to Instant Replay at least to HRs, which about 40% saying they wanted it for everything. (The term "everything" didn't speak to specificity.)

This shocks me. I have heard people gripe about how they don't want instant replay because it takes away from the game. But I hear lots of cries for it where there will be zero officiating errors. I can't find any two people that seem to agree on the subject.
That is all,

I'm sure the NBA officials won that poll because they're on the take... Tim Donoghy.
