July 3, 200521 yr Post feelings on selections and who you voted for in the final vote here. ***Possible Spoiler*** Scroll down if ya want, if not wait until 6:00 CT Cards have 6 on NL All-Star team It's official.... the six that we believed.... (izzy, instead of morris). lee won the vote at 1B. cardinals fans went to sleep on that one; let Cubs override Pujols with an aggressive campaign. The 6 are: Edmonds, Rolen, Eckstein (Starters), Pujols (DH), Carpenter, and Isringhausen.. Congrats to the All-Stars. I cant believe Eckstein is a starter of an ASG.. Lee shoulda been the leader at 1st.. So yeah.. I doubt Bernie would be lying but I'm still gonna watch to make sure..
July 3, 200521 yr oh my god....Izzy made it.....Hey Mays that's one less spot for your boyfriend Hammond..... your 0-1 my friend.
July 3, 200521 yr I cant believe Eckstein is a starter of an ASG.. 838592[/snapback] OMG, Cardinals fans getting Eckstein into the All-Star Game?!? :o It's a Christman miracle. :plain

July 3, 200521 yr Author Red Sox Selections (The red Sox logo has to appear) Manny Ramirez David Ortiz Jason Varitek Johnny Damon They HAVE TO plug the Boston Red Sox.. But rip the Cardinals selections.. No surprise..
July 3, 200521 yr Abreu, Beltran and Edmonds man the OF for the NL 838631[/snapback] that's a f***ing travesty. if the all star game is gonna mean something -- ie home field advantage in the WS -- then something needs to be done about fan voting. maybe let the fans choose one player from each position, but not allowing them to choose the starters? Beltran and Edmonds are so undeserving it's downright silly to see their names. The name should be changed to the "False-Star Game"
July 3, 200521 yr Author If the All Star game means HFA then I want my own player out there.. I'll vote for him over and over again. I dont agree with the voting system but that's the way it is.. Beltran, Eckstein, and Rolen shouldnt start.. I'm not denying that at all.. But if that's who the fans want to see, that's who they'll vote for.. I dont like Eckstein or Rolen starting but if that's who fans want to see, that's who they are gonna vote for.. I frankly dont like ballot stuffing.. If the Cardinals fans can get Rolen and Eckstein to start then why couldnt they make that extra push for Albert if they cared so much? :thumbdown
July 3, 200521 yr The name should be changed to the "False-Star Game" 838652[/snapback] Finally an idea is attached one of these many complaints.
July 3, 200521 yr Jeez, when they mentioned infield snubs they don't even name Tony Clark. So he gets snubbed twice.

Cry me a river. Alou is the least deserving of these players selected but he wont admit to that.. Go watch the Giants or something :banghead
