I never said one word about the Astros until you started talking **** about the Cubs history when your team's is even worse.

"The way MLB gives home field advantage in the WS is unfair!!!! This means the NL will rarely get home field!!!"

That's what you really mean to say. FWIW, I'd prefer for the Astros to be in the NL Central. Send Milwaukee's ass to the ALW. I miss the series with the Cubs, Reds, and Cardinals.

That's not at all what I meant to say. And for the record, I've ALWAYS hated this method of determining home field for the WS even when the Cubs were terrible.

Well, if the NL wants home field, the solution is simple...win.

The big problem I have is that the ASG is supposed to be about the players having fun, fans seeing opponents they wouldn't see otherwise and the exhibition.

The next evolution of making it mean something is to remove fan voting and having the team manager make the selections.

Go back to the old method.

And to those that said would resemble Jordan vs. Harden, how many hitters took pitches last night? How many counts got worked? How many pitchers just released everything they had knowing they were only going for an inning? That is exactly like Jordan vs. Harden.

Don't know if this is the right place to post a question about the All Star game, but does anyone know if the game can be seen on a replay online?

I recorded it to watch with my 11yo when he gets back this weekend but Fox is screwed up on my TWC cable so it wasn't watchable. I don't subscribe to MLB.com so if that's the only option then we're just SOL. Suggestions?
