Facts are facts. The clear uneven playing field provided by the umps is there for all to see.

Should the sox go all the way, they will always have an asterisk next to their name.

That's what they said about Bush in 2000. It didn't happen then and it won't now.

Which asterisk is that?

That the Sox had 4 different pitchers pitch a complete game in one series?

That their combined ERA was 1.62?

I know, how about you go start another whining thread instead of polluting this one with your whining losers excuses...

How about the 3rd String catcher allowing the stealing of second base while not even attempting a throw in that same game.

How about escobar throwing a meatball to Crede with an 0-2 Count...

can't blame those on the ump, who by the way made the correct call.

How about the phenomenal call that same ump made calling Rowand out at the plate.

How about the correct call today when the STUPID BUSH LEAGUE PITCHER TRIES TO CHEAT BY TAGGING THE RUNNER WITHOUT THE BALL IN THE GLOVE...

How about Great Pitching by the White Sox with 4 Complete games in a Row. Even the Angels only had three all year long. Oh I guess that's the umps fault too....

Talk about Cheaters... face it the Angels tried to cheat tonight, and even their Manager comes out screaming on a play so obvious, its' almost ridiculous....

So as for clouds, go look in a mirror, and face the truth....

The only Clouds out tonight were the ones with rain in them on the Angels Parade.

Facts are facts, something you can't seem to acknowledge....

Losers make excuses. winners take responsibility.... You can't seem to do that. So please explain what the Angels did wrong, please.... If you have any integrity to do so, that is?

NOW.... BACK ON TOPIC...

Angels Go Home... White Sox Go to the World Series.....

SCOREBOARD........

I'm a die hard season ticket holding fan of the White Sox and I'll be the first to admit that the umpiring in the series was absolutely horrid. It's practically unbelievable how many really bad calls went the White Sox way, but you know what? The Angels were completely incapable of overcoming even one of the bad breaks they were dealt. True championship teams overcome the bad breaks. The Angels proved themselves incapable. True championship teams take full advantage of the breaks they're dealt. The Chicago White Sox proved themselves extremely efficient at that.

Either stop whining or become one of the cry baby Cubs fans. Is it the umpires' fault that Vlad and Chone couldn't hit their way out of a wet paper bag in the ENTIRE series? Did the umpires force KRod to crap down his leg?
