Why MLB needs instant replay and Joe Morgan is a dumbshit

I'm watching the Cards at Cubs and Derrick Lee hits an apparent foul ball that the 3rd base umpire rules a homerun. Larussa comes out to ask for another opinion, and the home plate umpire overrules the original call.
When I first saw it, it looked way foul. During slow mo replay, it was clear it stayed just inside the pole, right above that screen that sticks out.
Joe Morgan is saying that if it were fair, it would have dis-appeared behind the foul pole during the replay. Guess what Joe. It did, on both replays that were shown.
I've got $20 that says ESPN never shows that replay again.

No, it wasn't foul. The ball clearly hooked inside, and around, the pole.
Speaking of retards, how did I just know that you'd be the first to respond?

That's not grammar smack, son. That's coherency smack. If you can't step it up just a notch or two, don't come crying to me about smacking you thru the arch like dinsdale playing croquet.

After third base umpire Mike Winters ruled it a fair ball, the left side of the Cardinals' infield and left fielder John Rodriguez protested and that prompted an argument from La Russa. The umpires huddled and overruled the call -- replays showed the ball clearly foul -- and that brought Cubs manager Dusty Baker out. After circling the bases, Lee had to return to the plate and flied out.
check.......................mate, now shut the fuck up

The ball was obviously foul. Every single replay showed foul. If your 1983 Magnovox doesn't discern between the colors white and yellow you may have trouble seeing the ball cross in front of the foul pole.

Bullshit. It was a fair ball. I watched it disappear behind the foul pole during the slo-mo replay. Twice!
I don't care what a couple of Cards fans wishfully thought they saw thru red-tinted glasses.
I know what I saw.

Wags, they showed an angle that was impossible to deny. The ball was left of the foul pole and never came close.
Don't you think Dusty Baker would have truly lost his fucking mind if that had been even relatively close?

Ok, if an unbiased observer saw it differently, then I'll default to my primary point, without conceding the secondary. I still say it was a homerun...but I could be wrong.
MLB needs instant replay.

Wags, we don't need a discussion on the physical motion of a particular baseball to determine conclusively and without possibilty of parole, contradiction, retribution, institution, pollution, or cornnuts that Joe Morgan is a FUCKING BUFFOON.
He is the PRIMARY idiot in all of baseball broadcasting. Well, 'ceptin fer that sapsucker name o' McCarver.

Cardinalfan obviously saw things the way it would benefit them. If Pujols or Edmonds hit that ball we'd be hearing a different story. The ball dissapeared when it crossed the foul pole, and as Morgan was saying "see the ball never dissapears" in the replay, YES IT DID. Conclusion = HR.
As far as the argument about "well it ended up 3 feet foul", I don't suppose the trajectory or spin of the ball and the fact that it was the WINDY CITY had anything to do with that. :roll:
It was a HR, and Morgan is a tard.

Sensitive subject area Adelp? It was ruled foul so what are you so bitter about? Don Denkinger? World Series sweep last year?
And even if the Tards win the Central by 20 games they won't win the World Series this year.

Either you are a moron or a troll.
TFKYOA.
As for Cubsfan, just stick your head in the sand and wait for next year. RedSox won the world series so I guess the biggest loser title goes to the Cubs now.

^^^Facts.
Some blind mofo's around here, apparently.
I kept waiting for Morgan to swallow his tongue, or at least say..."wait a minute, upon further review, that was a fair ball".
But nope, that bad call just got ignored.
Whatever, I still call bullshit.

As a Cardinal fan, I saw the play, the replays that night, the replays on the news and the replays on spartscenter the next morning. Each time it was foul. Each time they showed it from behind home plate it was foul. Each time they showed it up close from the third base line it was foul.
I know someone from Kansas City might have their memory of a play distorted with time, so it would be best to agree with me and recognize my infinite wisdom.

When you put it that way, it's hard to argue.
Soft words well spoken turneth away anger...and that's why I'm a Bacefan.
Even so, we shall agree to disagree.

All I know is the ball dissapeared when it crossed the foul pole from the angle I saw.
Anyone find a video of it?

Yes Jeff, but sometimes you have to concede to the infinite wisdom, even if it says that black is white and up is down.
