All Star Game coverage rant...enough of F*ckin Barry Bonds...and ...
I am sick and tired of "God Bless America" during the 7th inning stretch...it isn't a Church service...

If I could be magically made commissioner of baseball I would ban any song other than "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" at the 7th inning stretch...period

And what is it with this coverage...seems like it was planned by Paris Hilton...its like they want to talk about anything but the game...

And if I hear one more word about Barry Bonds I'm gonna throw my TV out the window. For the entire NL half of the fourth they did not mention a batting players name once, in fact did not call a play...the whole half inning was devoted to Bonds and Steroids...

One positive Note...my man Johan had a nice inning of work!!!

1. I listened to sports radio while I was working today -
and the main topic of discussion - I shit you not - was whether Commissioner Bud Selig would attend when Bonds hits 756.

Who gives a flying fuck if Bud Selig is there or not? It's not even worth a passing mention, much less 3-4 hours of radio.

2. Bowie Kuhn wasn't in Atlanta for Aaron's 715th
He got a lot of shit for that, so they have to recycle it.
