FOX does it every year. I guess they think it's cool, or groundbreaking or something. I hate it.

Okay, now I'm really mad! I just read the Wash Post article which quoted our official in the booth as saying that he couldn't recommend a challenge on the 4th down at the goal line because none of the camera angles were from the side. Since they were from the front and back only, he didn't feel it would be inconclusive evidence to overturn. Those angles are great for "extra" shots after the play, but you can't tell the result of the play from them.
