Thoughts on a Mid-Summer's Night Dream...

Some thoughts on the All-Star Game tonight: 

Bernie Miklasz (St. Louis Post-Dispatch) has some thoughts on the game tonight, worth the 5 minutes reading time.  Check it out either in print, or over at the online version of Bernie Bytes: Can the NL finally win?

Some things he left out, (unfortunately), and others demanding amplification

Will Obama pay another visit to this game, throwing the first pitch, and occupying the announcing booth for an inning like he did in St. Louis last year?  (And no, I still haven't forgiven him from ruining The Man's moment in the sun...)

Can the National League FINALLY win home field advantage in the World Series?  Last time the Senior Division took the win was back in 1996.  That was FOURTEEN years ago!  Thinking that the "Visiting" team will bring home the win tonight may actually be a dream.  Stranger things have happened!

Amen to Griffey, Jr.  Even if he doesn't play, a curtain call is well deserved.

Let's see what happens.  I'd love the road to the championship end up where it belongs -- Busch Stadium!

Play ball! -- Greg
