Most of the chapter was about baseball. The authors wrote two paragraphs on the NFL, using a cherry-picked subset (a set they don't actually disclose) of penalties to try to 'prove' their point that officials are biased in the NFL too.<br /><br />If you look at all penalties, or analyze play challenge outcomes, you get about what you expect: a 50/50 split on calls between home and away.
