Booing the pick off throw to first.

Isn't this a stupid, Pavlovian response?

 

I never understood why people boo the throw to first but are fine with pitchers who stare at the catcher for minutes or batters who constantly step out of the box.

 

thoughts?

Ya see, it's OK for your pitcher to throw over to first 12 times in a row, but god forbid the opposing team do it twice in an at bat.
