perfect game blown call

Have you all heard what happen in Major league baseball yesterday...There's this thing in baseball called the Perfect Game...It means the pitcher successfully gets 27 outs in a row. It has rarely been done. In the past hundred years it only been done 20 times...two in the last two years. Detroit Tigers pitcher Armando Galarraga had a perfect game with two outs in the ninth inning....a close play at first and the umpire calls the guy safe.....It was a quick bang bang call...

If it were any other game people might have just yelled the normal "you suck ump"...It wasn't as obivous as the slow mo told us...the ball wasn't completely secure in clove then the race for the bag and "SAFE"...What..? that call hurt everyone...no one in the world wanted that guy to be safe...the runner wishes he could have fallen or been shot...

Now the Replay comes into effect...and holy cowshit was the call blown...I would hate to be this guys agent...this poor innocent 17 year veteran makes the worst call of his life..the world hates this fucking guy..he's hitler, he's bin laden, he's George Bush Jr....all because of a baseball game? I believe the some medieval countries, like Detroit, are calling for the ump's thumb to be eating by wild boars....

The rules say that if all the umpires get together they can over rule the call...Why didn't they?
It was so clear at that point that someone should have saved the day by over ruling the call..The main ump should have had the balls to make it right..just make it right...make us feel better..anyone who can relate to dedicating your whole life to something even as silly as baseball can understand what it takes to achieve what this man achieved..."It's like bringing him to the top of Mt. Everest and pushing off a foot away from the Peak"

MLB Commissioner Bud (buzzkill) Selig is a jackass if he doesn't over turn this...ONE TIME only....have the owners vote on it and let it be a perfect game...Baseball is not Americas game Capitalism is...MLB is it's own little group...they don't care what we think.."yeah they do they let us pick the allstars" bullshit..everything if fixed..hello Gore...

MLB is so Holier than Thou..they allowed the abuse of steroids for years..everyone knew what was happening. How do think McGwire went from Howdy doody to the incredible RED HULK...Home Runs bring people to the game...the awesomeness of seeing a ball travel fast into the bleachers as fans scurry for the ball..maybe a dad gets lucky and gives the ball to his kid or maybe there's a fight to the death for a $4 ball.. unless it's a record breaking ball then all bets are off...I don't care if there's a lil fellow with some sort of fucked up diseased filled life being rolled in on a skateboard, I want that ball....

It's all about the money, fine, I can accept that, then give this guy his perfect game or give me my money back...the 450 bucks it takes to bring my soon to be ex wife and two kids to a game..the traveling, parking 20 plus bucks, tickets 25-75 each, food $12 hamburgers, What? that much it better be made of baby dolphin covered in penguin sauce..

So let's give everyone a break here..us the fans...the pitcher and especially the ump.. who will never get laid again unless the call is overturned...
