QUOTE(Middle Buffalo @ Oct 24, 2005 -> 12:20 PM) The worst thing was when Lidge gave up the homer and McCarver said, "Why do things like this happen?" Now, I'm pretty sure he was just feeling bad for Lidge being a goat in two consecutive appearances, but that's crap analysis. How about the other side? Anyone have any theories as to why the announcers would be biased? I'm not certain they are. I'm guessing Astros fans probably think the announcers favor the Sox. Anyone have any theories as to why the umpires would be biased? Seems like the umps have a few bucks on the outcome.

All Sox fans... COME ON!!! I'm one of you. But get with it. If that call goes against us instead of for us, to lose a game no less, then you guys are crying a river about how you got screwed and there's no way that ball wasn't caught!! It's funny to see you guys rationalize what was obviously a blown call and try every way to explain that the umpire made the correct call. Watch the news conference with the umps - it's clear that they know they blew it!! java script:emoticon(':bang') smilie Puh-leeze. java script:emoticon(':chair') smilie
