I find it amazing that another media outlet want's to place the loss on the shoulders of the umpires due to one controversial call.

The Asros losing the game had nothing to do with the routine fly ball that Biggio dropped, did it. I'm sure it was the LFU's fault that Burke was playing in left and couldn't catch a cold out there.

As has been pointed out, the loss had nothing to do with their pitcher leaving a fastball over the plate in Konerko's wheelhouse, now did it.

I'm also thinking the umpire caused Oswalt to get to a hitters count and then leave a lemon fastball on the heart of the plate for Pod's to drive to the Dan Ryan.

Maybe the fans can all sing "There's a Tear in my Beer" in tonight game in Texas.

Tim.
