2008 All Star Game!

I'm done, Leo. It's not worth my effort

[Bon Bon]

Guys I pmed him and hopefully this can be resolved between me and him by pm.

It appears the rosters will be expanded, yet again, to avoid situations like we alomst had here.
Overall, this was not Dan Uggla's night, was it?
The pitchers did a nice job of keeping the hitters under control. 12 straight years without a National League win. Interesting.

[HollywoodLeo]

Not interesting. Upsetting.

[Kingdom]

Yup, that's me. I love to cause problems here. Just ask Crazy, Nick, Leo, GF, Brownie, Bon Bon, Zito, Reefer, Mission, and all the others about what a ********* I am.

I think you're boring, that's about all.

[ljshorty89]

This was the worst night of Uggla's career. 3 errors, 3 K's, GIDP. What the hell could he have done worse?

[ljshorty89]

....and I'd rather be boring than hated. I don't handle being hated well, lol

[realmofotalk]

Brad Lidge should expect in his mailbox a check from Bud Selig.

[ljshorty89]

Brad Lidge can now cry himself to sleep for the next 3 years. <sarcasm> Hope this doesn't scar him for the entire length of that overpriced contract that he was given too soon </end sarcasm>

[realmofotalk]

Anyway, home field advantage is overrated. Hank Blalock's home run was all for nothing when the Florida Marlins ended up spraying champagne over all the visitors' clubhouse in Yankee Stadium.

[henks]

So what did we learn tonight?

Uggla was doing well, but probably could have gone without an appearance.
The umps blew calls
Bud Selig still sucks
Pitching totally dominated hitting this year
No, we all can't get along
Tim McCarver should try another profession
Yogi's gangster...nuff said
and finally....

the American league is the better league.

[ljshorty89]

As it's been said. When the game goes 15 innings, and the AL wins by 1 run....you can't really say they're the significantly better league. It was pretty even.

The ASG doesn't determine who is better anyway, in most years the ASG will be a pretty close game. The 149-103 IL record pretty much assured us the AL is still the dominant league.

[ljshorty89]

Again, can we really say that? Did every NL team play ever AL team? There were some pretty lopsided series. I mean, the Yankees played Houston, San Diego, and Pittsburgh. That's not exactly the most balanced IL schedule...

[Shadow29]

I hope everyone doesnt blame Brad Lidge. He had been warming up since the 8th inning after all. That's not normal for any pitcher.
