Every game in every sport has bad calls. The NFL has the problem of rarity. An insanely bad call in a baseball game Monday is gone from sports talk because even if it’s in the playoffs there’s probably more games tomorrow, maybe 2 days. NHL and NBA run similarly. There’s always new content to push the story of that crap call out of the headlines. Football has those guaranteed 2 day gaps every week, and in the playoffs a whole week.
The calls really haven’t gotten any worse. But the quantity of media to beat that story to death has increased dramatically. There’s multiple full time sports TV networks, and even more radio networks, and dozens of websites and “channels” on websites. You can now easily consume 100 hours of complaining about 1 bad call, especially in the NFL when all these outlets still have to fill their hours even with no games happening. If you tune out the noise and just don’t let yourself consume that much sports talk you’ll see everything goes back to how it was decades past.
I don’t pay much attention to sports talk. I just watch games, and make my own decisions. For me, if feels like a lot of the fun of it has gone by the wayside. I just feel that everything is so corrupt. Maybe it always has been this way, and I’m older now and can see it.
