Tampa Bay is a pathetic franchise

they suck every year. no one goes to the game. I get their TV telecasts where I live. they are constantly trying to hawk $5 tickets, which they can't sell.

the announcers are terrible homers. they piss and moan about every borderline call that goes against them, as if its the umpires fault that their team sucks.

over the course of a season, you get some umpire breaks, you lose some. stop fukkin whining already. they are just pissing and moaning over a 3-2 pitch to Johnny Damon that was a touch high.

Your team sucks, thats why they finish last every year. Move 'em to Vegas.

I used to get Orlando Magic games when they were new and their announcers were horrific homers. And they would get beat by 31 points and they would just whine and whine about the officiating.

But I have never heard anything like these whiner announcers tonight. There was a missed call on a home plate play. with the slo-mo instant re-play you can tell the tag was missed. Live, it was tough to see.

Its really gotten embarrasing at this point, the whining from the announcers. Sometimes leads are blown. get over it

Mr Smith--They were bad calls though that have definetly had an influence on this game.

They just got a make-up call on the called strikeout of Renteria on a bad pitch.

pitch to Damon was up, then dropped a bit after crossing him then catcher pulled his glove down after catching it too . I would say 70% of the time that pitch is called a ball. it crossed letter high.

I do like the Tampa stadium as I told you, but they are not supported. I dont know why, that stadium isnt bad. Its tough to listen to homer announcers when you are impartial and see them for what they are. its even tougher when your routing for the other team. A team like Tampa wants the homer announcers though to try and drum up local interest.
