WW, of course there is some evidence that could be used to support a Global Flood. The problem is that the evidence that shows it to be a complete impossibility is so compelling that the weight of scientific evidence points to that way. Therefore, the few bits of evidence that could be taken to be from a Global Flood must have another explanation.
This is not bias, just science. If you see something that seems to violate gravity, you don't throw out the laws of gravity as being impossible. Instead, you look for the reason for this seeming exception, and perhaps you come up with some new laws that complement gravity laws, but do not deny them.
Same with the Flood. There is so much evidence that speaks against it completely, that any such evidence that could be taken in favor of it must have some other explanation. Otherwise you have to answer all that massive evidence.
