you can actually see the plays in baseball, football looks like a huge pileup. They replay almost every play, and unless there's some shoulder popping involved it gets boring pretty soon.

yes, it looks like a train wreck... but always fun to watch... especially with slow instant replay of a player getting hit... so fun to watch

baseball should implement football's challenge policy for questionable calls by using video replays. 1 challenge per game for each team via video replay?...how many times have u seen a called strike when it should be a ball & vice versa?....is that what is in commisioner selig's future to change the face of baseball after the whole steroid scandal...

yeah, agreed. that would be great. so many games lost/won by errors of the umps. the NBA reviews the last second shot before the expiration of the quarter. so MLB should also have video replays as well.

This is actually true. In a 4 hour baseball game you can actually see all 3 plays made during the game.
