Then again, what's wrong with being biased?
Nothing! Let them be biased I say! That's half the fun!
If my team leads Madrid with two goals to nil I would be a fool to let some commentator ruin my evening just because he happens to have an opinion.
Opinions don't matter in football, biased or unbiased, what matters is what happens on the pitch.
One can have opinions, make statements and predictions, attempt to rationalize the game, but as soon as a player hits a screamer from 25 yards, completely out of the blue and completely incidental, all logic flies out the window! This is the beauty of the game, that just when one thinks one has it all figured out, something like this can change events and alter the course of football history.
What's wrong with being biased? Nothing whatsoever.
Because the opinions of gray-haired ass-scratching commentators, at the end of the day, simply do not matter!
Balzaretti is going to knock Liverpool out of the CL with a stunner from 30 yards by the way, in 2009, just after Andy Gray has mumbled something about "Italian divers and disgraceful behavior"
And I can't wait!
