Or showing the referee camera evidence that their call was wrong.

Bringing a camera on field deserves to get you tossed. Call has to be made real time, refs don’t get the opportunity to get multiple takes of the play.

Which is not the case with VAR in soccer, already proven instrumental for better calls.

I’m sorry, when was the last time a ref kicked someone out for using the VAR?

Patrick Beverley was penalized for proving the referee he was blind. Bringing in camera evidence to support a correct referee call is the essence of VAR.

He was suspended for challenging a call using VAR?

Penalized by the referee for bringing in video evidence that the referee was blind, yes.

Ah, so he didn’t use a proper challenge system, he just brought a random camera onto the court. Correct me if I’m wrong, no one has been suspended for correctly challenging for a video review in any sport?

Never knew that whatever anyone (e.g. bystander or reporter) could video record and present in a non-edited fashion is worth discarding.

You see, being occasionally wrong is not such a big deal. Rejecting evidence that shows you’re wrong is just plain stupid.

You understand the referees legally can’t overturn a call based on that right? No, you probably don’t.

Which is why this arbitrary fallacy-prone system needs to evolve.

Yeah! It’d be great to have players and coaches running out with cameras after every play.

Prize for stubborness into not seeing the obvious goes to you mate.
