So you guys ok with them? How bout Bonds being a starter, I mean compared to ripkens last all star game, bond's numbers this year blows ripkens away so I guess all is fair. IMO AL is so loaded this year, I dont see the NL having any kind of chance at all winning this baseball game

[Burf]

A-Rod and Jeter made it? I'm shocked.
Seriously, though (not really), I like how you call them POS players. Funny.

POS = position. Not piece of shit just in case there was any confusion.

EDIT: Some spelling

[Twobit Whore]

That stands for position, it's a table and the header for the first column is their position...

And yeah, I'm fine with Bonds there. He was fan-voted in, not selected so it doesn't matter what anyone thinks because obviously enough of them think he should be there.

Yeah Im with ya there. If the fan's want him in (Im one of them) im ok with it. Im really excited about the all star weekend this year. Hope it turns out to be good.

[Akileese]

When's the Derby? Next Monday?

[sticktastic]

Not sure. I would really like to see barry in a derby tho. I think he might do it, just because the allstar game is in SF, and it's going to be a all about barry weekend since he will be playing in it.

2B Brian Roberts Baltimore Orioles 2nd



LOL

[Havelock]

Youk got pretty screwed by Ortiz getting the 1B position for votes in the fan balloting; hopefully next year things will get worked out properly.

[kcxiv]

Good to see 3 Dodgers made it.

Penny and Peavy are going to have a hell of a battle for the Cy Young this year. The damn stats between them are so damn close.

Anyways, It should be about Barry even though i hate that fucking team with a passion.

[AngryGerbil]

Pujols isn't starting? Fucking nazis.

Yeah, for the record, I know POS is Position. That's why I put the (not really) after the 'seriously, though.'
Internet sarcasm comes through again.

[Thorpe]

Nice to see three Phillies make it, I'm really happy about Rowand. It's a shame Rollins didn't make it, he has the numbers to at least be a reserve.

[Kaxmax]

Yeah, I think Rollins should have made it as a reserve, especially considering how close he & Hardy are stat-wise. They're very close offensively, and Rollins is better in the field in my opinion. Does the NL team really need 4 first baseman?

I get the distinct impression you don't understand how the All Star game works. Name me one other player from the Cardinals or Nationals that would be a better All Star.
