THE UMPIRES!!! Just ask the Hawk! It seems every time I turn on a Sox game, Harrelson and his lil' buddy/sidekick are whining about the umpires squeezin' their pitchers, missing this call or that call.

 

The Sox have not played good ball lately. Can't he say that? I wonder if the umpires are responsible for the break in the BP pipeline, too, and for the troubles in the mideast. I think it's time they gave Harrelson his own statue next to Fisk and Minoso and let him spend his summers on the golf course.

 

What a whiner!

Or they are just unlucky. I was watching the game tonight and Cano blooped one into LF and DJ just said something along the lines of: "man, that's just unlucky. he's done that 2 or 3 times this series." Well if he keeps slapping them, adjust your defense.

 

It must be cool to be a fan of a team who can do no wrong.

Put the statue in the broadcasting booth; it would be infinitely more entertaining than Hawk.

Tonight I saw him whine about a call that was clearly correct (Konerko missing the bag while trying to double off Abreu on a fly ball). He then said it had been a terribly umpired series, which I assume means that close calls were correctly called against the Sox.

Konerko did miss the bag, but from what I saw, Abreu slid over the bag and his foot came off the base. Konerko did have his foot on the base when Abreu came off the bag.

If Abreu touched the base at all, then Konerko would have to tag him if he came off of it.

Alright, my bad then.

I've noticed that the Sox announcers always come up with a reason why their team is losing.

 

And the Captain Obvious Award goes to...

 

Brad!

If the sox are losing, it might talk more than him, too. I've watched games where he might say one word over a full inning because he's all grouchy about the score.

"Look at the big brain on Brad."

 

This was in no way meant to offend or attack, rather to simply quote a great movie.
