Good Luck NL!

love the top logo!

 

I love the NL lineup from top to bottom, but I still that the AL will be able to take another all-star game.

Thanks!

 

It will be a good battle, but this year I do think the NL actually has a chance, we will see.

NL all the way! can't believe santana isn't playing.....guess he's not having a good year

I'm going with the national league...I think we have a better lineup.

First time I'm rooting for some fish. GO NL!

I think the NL actually has the better team this year.

Every year, I always say "Ok, this is finally the year the N.L. is going to win!". Well, it never works out that way, so this year I am going to try a little reverse effect. I expect the A.L. to win. We'll see what happens :lol ( go National League!)

 

The A.L. ALWAYS wins and I don't think they'll lose their crown at the final All-Star game of opening day. Plus, the A.L. is simply better and more competitive than the N.L.

 

A.L. wins 9-6

Finally, our lineup is not poisoned by Mets.

 

Finally, the REAL all-stars are starting.

 

This is the year!

First time I'm rooting for some fish. GO NL!

And we're rooting for the Mets... if they make it into the game. :thumbup
