Is instant replay ruining football?

Yes I know the most important thing is to get the right call, however...
Some some of these "correct calls" are getting way too complex and nit-picky (i.e. Calvin Johnson call, Tuck Rule call).

was Johnson ruled a TD and then overturned?

The ref instantly held up his hands signaling a TD, but another ref came over and vetoed it. Reviewed it and confirmed call on field. So maybe that wasn't the best example

Calvin Johnsons play was called incomplete on the field
And no, getting the call correct is not ruining football.

Whats even worse is when they review a call and still get it wrong, like Hightowers 'fumble'

Uh, no. The rules are in plain text, but unfortunately the games themselves set the precedence for interpreting the rules. It takes encountering a specific situation for the rules to be reexamined and possibly altered.

Instant replay is not ruining football for me its the instant replay process. Why in the hell does the ref have to look at it himself? Have a ref up in the booth and the main ref have a buzzer or headphones or something.

Like college, much quicker process it seems.

I don't think so.

would prefer this then have a faceless person sitting in the booth with other people like in college(getting their advice) and making the call.

without replay there would be no accountability
