What I think would be neat is to have a chip in a football so the ref’s would know where the ball is - like crossing the goal line or where the first down is or when it crosses the foul line ... stuff like that ....

There is a soccer ball that does this with a wired goal line. I think I remember a light goes off when the ball COMPLETELY crosses the goal line. Technology is already there.
