Should be a great game. It'll be even better with the TV muted

 

[ZDemp34]

I'll be more interested in the home run derby than the game itself.

i always enjoy the game.

Makes me think the AL is going to win after all, but the NL has had some surprises in the past couple seasons.

 

[daddies3angels]

AL lineup is just beastly

 

[brett05]

Go NL!

 

[Rice Cube]

Based purely on the AL's offensive potential I think they're the favorites to win, but I'd love to be pleasantly surprised tomorrow night.

ESPN Chicago has a couple nice articles about Castro and LaHair.

Getting close to game time

All-Star Game pre-show, Joe Buck muted...here we go! :woot:

 

[Rice Cube]

Why is there so much random music and crap? It'll take them at least half an hour to tear down that stage and another half hour to wax poetic about all the random All-Stars. Bah!

Unless the stage wasn't actually on the field in which case I take back the first part I said

 

[Rice Cube]

Good lord this is taking forever.

 

[Mr. Cub]

It's almost game time! Whoo!!!

 

[The Bandit]

That AL lineup is like 100 orgasms going on, it probably can't get much better even if you had NL players added to it. Straight up powerful. Didn't like the way the Anthem was sung though

 

[Rice Cube]

Did I miss the first pitch? Poop.

 

[Rice Cube]

I vote that FOX should fire Buck and McCarver and call on Vin Scully, Pat Hughes or Bob Uecker to do commentary from now on.
