I bet you have a suction cup dildo attached to a Greg Maddux poster but complain about umpires.

Yeah, I remember when all the Braves fans were blaming Eric Gregg for losing to the Marlins in the 97 NLCS. I was like do y'all forget all the strike calls Maddux and Glavine got that were 6 inches off the plate? I remember the Braves announcers would always justify it with "He's consistently in the same spot, so the ump gives him the call" or "He's a veteran, so he's going to get that call off the plate where a younger pitcher won't".
