While the Amer. leauge has whooped the Nat. league like 5 years in a row..I think its time for the Nat. guys to win.
Thoughts..opinions..random donations?
BTW..it is on now.

-
I\'m hoping Bonds actually does something in the allstar game, unlike the HR derby.

Who wont be hitting a home run..lol

My money is on the #1 most memorable moment being a NY related one.
-
hahahah..did anyone see Mr Personality Ray Liotta just a second ago? Talk about readind DEAD from the tele-prompter. Him being a decent actor, I figure he would have been a little more natural.
-
NY related moment....a drive by?
-
This 30 greatest moments things has reminded me just how much I hate Barry Bonds.
-
this thing isn\'t too bad, usually I don\'t like these things, but this one isn\'t too bad.
-

My thoughts exactly..I really hate that with all major sports games. With everything they are doing, thats why there is a such thing as ESPN classics and numerous tribute shows for such milestones.
PLAYBALL DAMNIT!!!
-
i liked seeing all the old guys, so everyone who doesn\'t like it, treat it like a fat woman, and just don\'t look.
-
But how many fat women delay a game an hour or so?
-
What sucks even more..Ted Williams being named Allstar MVP. I love the guy..but come on, plenty of ways to honor him without taking accolades away from current players.
-
He was named MVP? I thought they were just saying the award would be named for him, as in the MVP gets the Ted Williams award. Maybe I heard wrong. Meh.
-
lol, whoe the hell is is anastacia?
i love how she got ZERO applause when they announced her
im sure she\'s better then macy gray tho
i guess britney was busy
-
shockwaves: I dunno..I thought I heard he was being named the mvp..which makes no sense. What you said was probably true.
mm.I dont know who she is..but she cant hold a candle to macy gray. the fighter jets flying past the stadium was a nice touch though.
-
ehhe, at least anastacia REMEMBERED the words to the anthem, UNLIKE macy gray who stumbled halfway thru it
:)
-
what event was this? hell, i dont even know all of the words :)
-
she sang the anthem for a ball game last season
she gave a formal apology on the news media also, it was funny
-
at the Pro Football Hall of Fame exhibition game on Aug 6th, in her hometown of Canton, Ohio.
dumb whore....damn i hate her
-
well Hunters snag of Bonds HR may be the play of the game, that was a frick\'n jaw dropper.

CANTON, OH Wednesday 8.8.2001 /pickthehits.com/ -- Football fans in Macy Gray\'s hometown booed and laughed as she struggled her way through the national anthem before a Football Hall of Fame exhibition game.
The crowd wasn\'t too impressed by her funky, offbeat take on the song at first, and when she stared to stumble over the words the crowd began booing and laughing. Then several low flying planes drowned her out the end.
Asked if she was nervous about singing the anthem, Gray said, "I don\'t know, I have no idea what to expect."
This isn\'t Gray\'s first bit of bad luck with the Hall of Fame, she worked there in the summer of 1987. "I was a tour guide and I got fired after, like, a week," she said.
im suprised she wasnt deported

That was great. Torii Hunter is my new hero. DOWN WITH BONDS!
-
even though I like Bonds, and was giddy when I first thought that ball was gonna carry out of the park, I have to give Hunter some big props on that one.
-
Damn...Hunter just missed that 2nd long fly ball by bonds :(
-
BWUHAHAHAHA!
look at sammy get mad
he wants a homer SO bad
tsk tsk
-
Hunter just missed it? Yeah if only he had a 50\' verticle jump he could have had it.
Sammy\'s hacking actually made me laugh.

Only a 48\' vertical. I keep telling him he has to work on that :o
-
Well as long as NL wins I\'m happy.
-
who knows..it isnt over yet and they have a habit of loosing these. I want em to win tho...so they will :)
Im STILL pissed sammy was swinging at that ****. I thought he was gonna have a few words when he was almost hit..that look in his face was priceless.
-
The thing that pisses me off now...Kim is online for the win.
-
this thing could end in a walk off rbi, or maybe even a homer.
one thing is for sure, none of them want extra innings.
-
My god so exciting its 9th inning 7 7 game! Bottom of the 9th! AL HAS TO FIN!!!! :mad: !
-
Tony, what was wrong with Kim being online for the win? It\'s an All-Star game, who cares who gets the win?
Go Damien Miller, that ****** announcer blamed Brenly for bringing him when La Duca could have gone. 2 for 2 with an RBI and a run scored. Ha.

Because he pitched horribly, and should have been on line for the loss.
And yes, despite his performance, LoDuca should have been there over Miller. He has had a better season.
-
He was probably nervous. He got out of the inning.
And Miller is a FAR better defensive catcher than Lo Duca. Hitting isn\'t everything.
-
damn close to a walk off homer, it got me off my seat.
big steal by Green.
-
Yes, I cheered when Dunn made contact. It sounded like it was gone.

LoDuca has caught more people stealing (23-19). They have the same number of passed balls (6 a piece). LoDuca has also been calling the pitches for the 2nd best staff in baseball (and a first place team). Far better? Ha. I\'m not even sure I\'d agree with better at all.
And at the plate, it\'s no comparison. LoDuca is a feared hitter, Miller isn\'t. LoDuca is hitting .326, and incredible average for a catcher. Miller is at .272 with fewer RBIs and fewer runs. How you can say he deserves it over LoDuca I don\'t know.
And Kim...nervous? Like in the World Series maybe? For the best pitchers, that doesn\'t matter. He is just proving once again that he does not belong in that category.
-
They\'re calling it???????????
someone better score here, i don\'t want a tie.
-
Man, that just sucks. Keep it going, I want a winner! Send Bonds out there to pitch or something!
-
lol, listen to them BOO bud selig after announing a tie
thats BS, im losing all respect for MLB
babe ruth is probably rolling in his grave
-
have the two managers pitch to eachother, who ever hit\'s it out of the infield first wins.
or have the two teams bet on how many Hotdogs Don Zimmer can eat, closest guess wins.
-
Let them play
Let them play
Let them play
-
Isn\'t that just the crappiest ending ever.
-
ending in a tie..what bullchit..bud needs his nutz cut off and stuff down his throat. I understand the pitcher thing..but just bend the rules and go through the line-up again.
-
selig can lick my where i pee, why cant they just put a pitcher in that they already used just for the sake of ending the game
-
And Selig does all he can to look worse and worse and worse.
God, what a moron. This is just horrible. With the price that the fans paid for those tickets, they sure as hell deserve to see a winner.
-
I hate to say it..but I hope the players strike, just to put a dent in the pockets of ass\' like selig.
-
what is Selig going to do for an encore, slap Maris\'s daughter, rape Babe Ruths corpse and take a dump on the #9 in left field?
-
Damn Torii Hunter for robbing Bonds\' homerun. Damn him to hell. :evil:

I had a funny feeling the game would come down to 1 run and the robbed one would have been the winner. I never thought it would end liek this..
-
Hope the players strike? No. Selig needs to get out though. Overall though, I side with the owners in the labor disputes. It is the players association that wants no steroid testing, and no salary cap.

I said it not b/c of the the current views of a strike..but mearly for this situation.
-
as a fan I\'m all for steroid testing, however as a bodybuilder I\'m against it. I don\'t like it because these tests give false possitives very easily, many legal sups can be read as gear. I know from experience, I\'ve taken a steroid test before, and I came out possitive for enanthate and propionate, which I had never taken. I forget which sups I may have been on at the time, probably Creatine, Hydroxy Methanalbuyrate, cromium, and trimethylglycine among others, which are all legal. After my false possitive I took a different test, and came out neggitive.
-
I drink a protein shake every day....
-
Interesting that Bud Selig is now getting booed out of Milwaukee, of all places. I think the fact that everyone hates him is enough. Besides, the contraction bull**** was much worse than all of this anyway.
Who does a strike really hurt more anyway? Bud Selig, or the fans? I\'d say the fans. Personally, I want to see an end to this season. A strike is good for no one.

So maybe they have a multiple test system.
And you were on all those? Ugh.
-
yeah I was on all of them, but some sups have multiple sups in one drink/pill/powder
like i could get my creatine, glutamine, TMG and HMB all in one powder, so it\'s really not that bad...just expensive. the only bad thing is that no supplement tastes good, they all suck.
-
A strike does suck, but selig certainly does not want one..and let me tell you, it isnt because he is interested in the fans.

Know what suplement works for me? Sugar!

I\'m all for a strike in baseball. Serious things need to be fixed and maybe a break would give them enough time for that. The biggest problem being the joke that is the Yankees.
-
they do need to level the playing field, what the Yakers are doing is ridiculous. Hell why not just figure out who has the most money before the season even starts, and give them the championship, just save time.
-
Even a better idea. Have the all-star game but then turn the team into the yankees.
-
You know, it\'s not like other teams couldn\'t fill their stadiums too if they had more dedicated fans. It isn\'t just where the Yankees play, but it\'s the quality of their fans that make them money.
But I think that they really do need a cap or revenue sharing. I don\'t think that any of that will happen during a strike though.
-
I\'m for the strike now as well, they\'re all bastards.
-
I hate the yankees and all their fans.
-
Well I hate you too Bozco :p
*starts singing*
Start spreading the news...
-
thall all star mvp trophy was being named after ted williams. n there was no mvp due to the fact the game necer finished
-
