The All-Star is a Joke...

[waldo7239117]

Where should I start, I can go on for ever with this but to make it quick, I will write it up fast.

I'm a Cubs fan and hate the White Sox but...I am prety sure Konerko and Rios should of make it. Konerko is tied for 2nd in the majors with 20 homers and Rios is having a career year so I thought they should of made it.

Konerko could still be voted in by the fans but I don't think he should have to maybe wait this long to be selected. I am not an AL fan and don't follow it that much but a little so I don't really know any other player that should of made the all-star.

Thoughts?

 

[Got teeth? Keith doesn't.]

Youk deserves the final spot over Konerko.

players and managers should determine who gets in.

^agreed

and that probably goes for every other sport

 

[BigP50]

yeah.

 

[CODE_BLUE56]

when AI and T Mac make an all star game when both perform WAY under their career averages

theres a problem

 

[daddies3angels]

i also used to think that managers should say who gets in but then OMAR INFENTA (How ever u spell his name) got into the All Star game even though he doesnt even start for his own team...The all star game is a JOKE now

Who fuckin cares.

:dunno:

all-star games are worthless no matter how hard Pud tries.

Plus the depth of good OF and 1B in the league make it real hard for Konerko and Rios to make it in.

We should blame ourselves, for not voting for them more.

Since somebody has to make it from every team (at least I think thats still the rule) either Rios or PK will be there.

 

[GrinderBall41]

Or maybe Thornton made it?

EDIT: Yep he did http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/new..._id=11911106&vkey=news_cws&fext=.jsp&c_id=cws

But yeah Rios should be in there no question. Should be starting really.
