WASHINGTON -- It's another umpiring call that went the St. Louis Cardinals way this postseason. And it's not the first time TV replays show umpire Ji...

The limitations of the instant replay rules were seriously questioned after a blown call by umpire Jim Joyce at first base. But the protests have since died down. That is unfortunate, because it is time for instant replay to expand.

Moments after Coulibaly blew the most important call of the World Cup match, bloodthirsty fans on Twitter were linking the doomed soccer ref to another sports villain of recent weeks: Jim Joyce.

Corporations hijack the sport from the public, rename the parks after themselves, and tap the treasuries for the stockholders, leaving local budgets strapped. Sound familiar?

For Pete's sake, we let death row inmates out of prison when DNA or some other conclusive evidence proves their innocence. But we cannot overturn an umpire's call?

To err is human. But to immediately admit a mistake, especially one of such historic meaning, is almost against human nature. So I will always remember American League umpire Jim Joyce for how he handled his mistake.

Only a moron could argue against the inevitable expansion of the use of instant replay in major league baseball at this point, given the evidence in favor of such an expansion provided this week. But I guess I am that moron.

We all take for granted the hundreds of decisions the umpires make each game. They want to make the right one every time. But, like all of us, they're only human, and humans make mistakes.

Among all the major sports, Baseball probably has the most disrespected commissioner. Bud Selig has been an ineffective, weak-kneed errand boy for the owners. He's an owner himself. And he can fix things.

Faulty as Jim Joyce's call was -- he admitted it quickly and apologized to Galarraga -- it served as one of those moments that again demonstrates why sports serve so well as our national theater.
