Am I the only one who can't believe it took this long for something like this to be created? How many times have we seen a review where it is tough to tell whether or not the ball crossed the goal line because of a bad angle?

Amen! They have had Finish Line cameras in racing for YEARS. What took so long? I'm also in favor of the helmets with cameras embedded in them. They add only a few ounces of weight and create some incredible shots. Finally we could actually see what the QB is seeing as he progresses through his reads.

This would've given us a great angle of Tay Scott's

Been saying this for years. About time.

Even the cams in cell phones years ago would have been better than nothing. Now you can fit an HD camera or two in each pylon!

Should be aimed down the sidelines as well to check out of bounds near the endzone. Should give great footage.
