What is the point of even having a strike zone if you're gonna call shit that outside like that?

They should tag up the plate, ball, and knees and elbows of batters with sensors and have an infallible virtual strikezone for each batter - the tv cams could even pick it up and show it like the Fox 1st down line.

In this day and age it makes no sense to rely on umps' judgment for something so easily perfectable.

Why would you tag the elbows?

You think there is lengthy silence in the broadcast now? Just think if the strikezone was infallible. Bitching about calls is over 50% of Hawks broadcast.

BAD CALLS ALWAYS GO AGAINST THE WHITE SOX. I AM SO PISSED. NEVER IN THE HISTORY OF THE SPORT HAS MY TEAM BENEFITED FROM A BAD CALL.

He'd just bitch about the electronic strike zone. "Dadgummit, I remember when there was some humanity in this game!" Yaz woulda never stood for this!

I've seen that commercial probably ten times before, but tonight was the first time I did a double take (before reading these comments.) Maybe growing out the Hitler stache for Pippen's speech.

Hawk blaming West for the doubleheader. Basically hoping this doesn't ruin the season. Lol, not beating the Twins will ruin the season.

Seriously? Hawk is anti-pitch count? Is he anti-heliocentric theory of the solar system too?

I remember when Jimmy Lonborg threw 459 pitches in a game.

This is really embarrassing. Stone would never let him get away with this level of speaking out of his ass.

Agents are foisting pitch counts upon us! Guys used to throw 250 pitches in a game, with mustaches. What in the everlasting fuck has happened to our sport!

See... in the ORIGINAL post with the quote attributed to Irish Boy it basically reads "Elmhurst Steve has forgotten more about Baseball, than I (Irish Boy) will ever know. Thats because my knowledge of the game is such, that what I have forgotten, is still greater than the sum of your knowledge on the subject. Anyone with any sense knows the original post made perfect sense. I notice you erased the "Irish Boy wrote" mark, to try to disguise that. But then again you were the same dumbass that thought the chart in another thread showed that Danks and Floyd were overpaid and A.J. was underpaid. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I may have been mistaken in thinking the DH would wind up a split. It may well be a sweep at the hands of the mighty Royals. :shock:

This is your post. You wrote it. You fucked up. Just acknowledge that you have an extremely low IQ, and we can move on.

You might have to first explain what the word acknowledge means. It's a pretty big word.

Not only are they still bitching about the strike call on Rios from a couple innings ago, they are showing replays of it still.

Hawk has a number of enablers on the production side.

It reads (from a quotation attributed to you) Elmhurst steve has forgotten more about Baseball Than I (Irish Boy)'ll ever know. Are you really so dumb as to not comprehend that statement?? :roll: It just means that I have such superior knowledge of the game, so as to have forgotten more than you will ever know about it. I cant help that you are too stupid to understand the statement. It's just like the chart you couldn't understand. If brains were dynamite, you couldn't blow your nose. :lol:
