2008 All-Star Game: NL (Sheets) @ AL (Lee) 7 pm FOX

if they couldn't find anyone who thought the rays would fade in the second half, they didn't talk to enough people

 

No reason to think they'll fade.

 

not exactly a unanimous opinion, which is the point

 

The only reason people think they'll fade is because they are Tampa Bay

 

Or..........

 

Because they are all young and never have been in a pennate race before, and they are in the same divison as the Red Sox and Yankees.

I think they'll fade because they are young as hell and will wear out down the stretch.

[The Voice of Reason]

When was the ASG at Wrigley last?

 

1988 - lousy night.

[CubsBears29]

Good thing we got those 2, Papelbon and Nathan throwing in the AL pen.

What does not being in a pennant race before have to do with anything?

The last half of your sentence makes sense, but the first half does not compute.

Umm I dunno.., its a little differnt playing for 70 wins, then playing to win a divison, the pressure and everything.

nah, there's always a talking head available to tell you that the cubs/brewers/cards will fade in the second half ... but they can't find anyone to say the rays will?

 

i call b.s., but it's a buck-mccarver all-star lovefest, so i shouldn't be surprised

I distinctly remember CBS airing Rescue 911 during the rain delay.....distinctly!

[CubsBears29]

Is this game being played in a library??

 

Maybe FOX should start pumping in its own crowd noise.
