The ump made a bad call. It wasn't nearly as bad as it looks on video, as the catcher didn't catch it cleanly making it look like it bounced. Sure he fucked up, it happens. Live with it.
Are you serious? So you're telling me a shitty call made on a shitty pitch wasn't as bad as it looked on video? That's dumb. Yes he fucked up, and he even admitted to it. It was an egregious called third strike. It was not even close to being a strike. I'll live with it going forward, and probably even not worry about it tomorrow. But it was a terrible strike call, and it should be pointed out.
And Nathans right to an extent. He (like every other player in the history of the game) has been "victim" to a call that is not correct. It happens when you employ humans to judge other humans.
And that makes it okay?
People need to stop bitching about the officiating in all of sports and start just play the fucking game.
Or we can talk about bad officiating because it isn't good when an official becomes part of the game.
These assholes complaining are doing it strictly for their own benefit. The renovations will probably hinder the rooftop experience. Good. go to the stadium, not on top of a roof across the fucking street.
I agree with this. It likely will, but fuck them. They make so much money off of the people that go on the rooftops, but don't pay anything to the team.
The Cubs damn well better update Wrigley and tell the rooftops to fuck off. The stadium is ancient and in need of an update. And as far as I know, the Cubs don't get a dime from the rooftops (or much less then they would if they were in the building). Why should they give away their product for somoene else to profit off of?
Exactly. They get nothing from the rooftop owners, and people around Wrigleyville bitch about night games and what not. I can't stand it, and if the deal doesn't get done, I would actually hope the Cubs moved out of Wrigleyville. It will never happen, but I would love for them to at least entertain the idea of moving to the suburbs as a nice "Fuck you" to all the people around the area that are trying to fuck the franchise over. I'm not delusional to think they would actually leave Wrigley, but Ricketts needs to not bow down to some rooftop owning assholes that think they deserve a piece of the pie when they don't contribute a god damn thing.
