I dont know if I would say there was a "fix", and I dont want to dwell on it; but there really were some AWFUL calls against us last year. I understand that all teams get screwed at one point or another. However, I can think of three games off the top of my head where at least one major bs call, or somtimes two, were the difference in the game. I dont know if its somthing I should complain about, as much as offer a solution for.
I was thinking this when I was watching the St. Louis Cardinals vs Atlanta Braves game the other night (i'm a cards fan). And the home plate umprie was just making rediculous, inaccurate calls, and moving the strike zone all over the place. My point here being, I think that referee's, who make poor, or inconsistent calls (more so in baseball, but that Green Bay illegal shift comes to mind) on a consistent basis over the course of a game should be fined, or have to sit out a game or somthing. I'm not trying to rob these guys of cash or anything. And if a guy makes a bad call, its gonna happen, I dont think you sould drill someone for that. However, if over the course of games, there are just inconsitent calls, or calls going one way, i think we need to take a seroius look at disiplining officals.
