Kind of makes the "It's Fixed" theories seem a little bit more believable. p.s. I don't really believe the "It's Fixed!" theory because it's virtually impossible to fix, but every now and then, you gotta think Hmmm??? :) p.s.s. Actually, I'm real glad to see these 2 teams in the world...
What the phrase is supposed to put into perspective is, if the team was much better than the team they lost to, the bad call wouldn't have factored into the equation... Example: If the Red Sox had won some of those damn final games (especially the ones in Tampa) they never would have had to...
...unless the Sox win the series before game 7. But as a Red Sox fan, I know that your team should never put themselves in a position where a bad call (or play ;)) can make or break your season. :D
