Top 12 reasons why the NFL went to automatic replay on turnovers

12) We're just not seeing enough refs doing peep show work

11) Natural middle step to the end-game of instant replay for every first down, yardage mark and fantasy football point

10) Just not enough opportunities for commercial messages in your average 3.5+ hour football game

9) Want to ensure double commercial time for any pick 6

8) If they don't come up with something new to emasculate the on the field zebras every year, their nuts might grow back

7) Will guarantee that Andy Reid's useless challenges will become, somehow, even more useless

6) Buffalo Fan was complaining that they didn't have enough time to appreciate Ryan Fitzpatrick

5) Teams used to get all of that unseemly momentum from turnovers, and we can't be having that

4) Eagle Fan needs more time to rethink this whole Michael Vick idea

3) Gives more opportunities to older fans to note how the game is going to hell in a handbasket, and also to nap

2) Since nearly every game is decided by a handful of turnovers anyway, we should really enjoy them

1) More in-game stoppages means more in-game concession sales, and the NFL just isn't making enough money yet
