requires your thoughtful and constructive criticism to help me work out the rough edges.
The Plan. Have 4 Officials for each game. 3 are on the court calling the game, one is on the sidelines waiting to step in. As calls are made throughout the game spectators in the arena and watching at home use mobile devices to register their opinions of each call. If 60% of the votes cast on any one call are that the call was a bad call the referee that made the call is subbed out and the sideline ref rotates in. This continues throughout the game. At the end of the game the three refs that spent the most time on the floor are paid a full fee, the one who spent the least time on the floor only gets a 1/3 fee.
In this way you create a system of instant feedback and accountability for bad calls. It might also make for a more cordial environment for referees because fans no longer have to yell and scream at the referee, instead they can vote them out.
How about it?
