What I find a bit weird about the sports media people is that they only consider offensive numbers when making their decisions. That's just kind of strange to me. I don't know how fantasy baseball works, but maybe that's the influence fantasy has on real sports.

Even so, I don't see how anyone who bitches about the AS game being a sham, can even begin to be upset about perceived "snubs". If you couldn't care less about the game, then why would you care who does (or doesn't) play in it?

BTW - Wakefield just won his league leading 11th game (also tied for most wins in all of baseball). :D

I don't bitch about snubs, just wanted to contribute to the spirit of the thread.

I find the whole thing ridiculous.

Like, everything. The fact that it "counts", yet is determined by retarded fans. That you have to have a representative from each team.

Either make it for fun or make it for real, a bastardization of the two is stupid, which is MY only gripe.

I didn't mean you exactly....I remember last year talking about the whole "it counts" thing. And I don't think I disagree. For instance, my sister (a Phillies fan) has been voting for Victorino for the last spot every night repeatedly while she watches the games. I didn't know it was unlimited voting now, thought they still held to the 25 max as it was during regular voting (which is ridiculous as well...1 vote is all you should get). She doesn't really like that it's unlimited but figures since they allow it, she might as well take advantage of it. Personally, I generally don't watch the AS games (in pretty much all of the major sports).....but I'll watch this year to see if Wakefield gets in.
