Detroit Red Wings, Los Angeles Lakers and others benefit from brutal calls.

Forever in sports there's been terrible call's made by umpires, referees and officials. However, lately it's been ridiculous. Last nights game between the San Antonio Spurs and The Lakers is a great example. Brent Barry gets landed on by Derrek Fisher, outside the three point line and there's no call! The resulting foul would have given Barry a chance to win or at least tie the game. 

This past weekend in the Detroit Red Wing, Pittsburgh Penguins game, Red Wings goalie, Chris Osgood was flopping all over the ice and every time he flopped the ref called a penalty against the visiting Penguins.

We've all seen the blown homerun calls in the major leagues in the last month. Those are just unexplainable. Teams are getting ripped off by ego's who are there to call a game, not to put themselves above it. Its getting harder and harder to take these swelled head calls and sports are getting harder to watch because of it.
