Safe to say this one is over. Hopefully the Cubs can bounce back in game 2.

I hate this game being in Cleveland. I've said it many times, it is complete bullshit that homefield advantage for your sports championship is decided by an exhibition game where everyone plays one inning.
I might tend to agree except a lot of Cubs starters were in that game and had a chance to help lock it up for the NL.

If we lose tonight, the media will be all over Cleveland's jock all day tomorrow - which will make our game 2 victory so much sweeter.

7 game series, homies. One game ain't shit.

So the Cubs vs. the AL All-Stars? I'd be fine if they alternated each year, but it really should be decided by record. 162 game season ends up meaning less than 1 exhibition game where guys are mostly dicking around.

That All Star game/ winning = homefield advantage needs to be done, Bud "the idiot" Selig is gone now. What a dumb fucking idea.

Valid point but it is still dumb as hell. 162 games is insane, most people barely watch because one game who cares 161 left. So MLB makes it even more meaningless? Not smart. A club wins the most games that should mean more.
