K-Zone showed that the called third strike was bogus. Holliday didn't swing at that one because it wasn't a strike. Perhaps the umps are on the take as well. That would make more sense, they aren't making millions. But it would still be like a tennis ball thrown long distance for a labrador (far fetched)

Of course he did. He needs to cover his tracks.

:wink:
Yes, and Jackson hit .389 in the 1919 World Series.

But no, I don't think Holliday is throwing the games - he's just incompetent.

He is being punished for using the handicapped stall and making a handicapped dude wait 20 seconds, and then mocking him afterwards.

Look, I'm just mad. I'll get over it. I figure around 2012.
