To tell you the truth, I have never watched (or cared) about an all-star game exept in 1994 when I went to the all-star game in pittsburgh. 12 years later, its back in pittsburgh again(just because of the new pnc park), and now I have to go to an all-star game party just because its in pittsburgh again. I hope Im not the only one that doesn't give a crap.

I love the pirates........ having the worst record in baseball every year... keep it going!

    just to let you know, I love the pittsburgh Penguins and the steelers, but when it comes to the pittsburgh pirates, I hate them so much, I hope they are the worst team in the league every year.

    I'm stuck at work. I love watching the All-star game though.

    I was lucky enough to go to the game in Baltimore in '93. Greatest game I've ever been to. Just incredible.

    With inter-league games now, the all-star game has lost some of its magic.
    Folks used to tune in to see the 'best' of the other league since they had
    little chance to see them play. Now, with cable tv and interleague games
    going into the break, the game is not what it used to be.

    Even though it was a pitcher's duel, it was still a great game, imo. Go AL!!!

    I watched it, and I thought it was pretty entertaining, it had an exciting finish in the 9th.

    Now the Angels will have home field in the WS!
