That was bizarre.

It is so dumb because the replay has to be reviewed right after the play under 2 minutes, that is because you don't want to keep going through the game with no dead balls and all of a sudden a team that would have won by 1 loses by 1 when they go to the monitor for a play that happened with 1:40 left in the game.


But what is so dumb about that end of the play the ref at the top called for it to be reviewed and he either didn't know it had to be reviewed right away or he just fucked up. What is terrible for a Professional game not knowing the rules in any nature.

Jesus what a brutal way to lose. I'm not even a fan and I felt some pain.

I just thought it was weird they didn't review it right away or after maybe the next possession it's a pretty big deal to know what the score is in a close game like that. No doubt they screwed up that situation.
