PrintJust saw Cliff Lee riding in a convertible. That part was sad. All the rest of this red carpet thing does not make me sad. Or, it makes me sad, in a different way.

Wait, they've already done the intros?

It still bothers me how they did intros in the ASG at Yankee Stadium a couple years ago.

Lame or not, I still enjoy watching the AL bury the NL, and I'd appreciate that occuring again today.
...and now I'm here
I always had cheered for the AL to win, but...
now that it “counts” I can’t help but think that the AL is playing to give the Yankees home field advantage in the World Series.
If Lee had gone to the Yankees, I’d definitely be pulling for the NL.
I guess I’ll just hope that Ichiro and Beltre and Lee each do something great.
Are they booing the Red Sox?

Something fun:
They had a thread about Steinbrenner’s death, and in it a ton of users made jokes about it. Then some of the people that trolled here when we made fun of Kendry’s injury got really uppity because they were legitimately under the impression that their community was “better than that.” They were actually surprised that people would make fun of a death off of LL.

They replaced the Orbit gum girl with another tall pale blonde woman.
I don’t really understand what the point of replacing someone with someone that looks like them is, but okay.

Why not just replace the girl with someone that doesn't look exactly like the girl before her.
Everyone is going to notice it is not the same girl. If they are already going to notice, there is no reason to look for a clone.

It's been one commercial
If you have not yet seen that commercial, there is nothing to notice yet.
...and now I'm here
I have seen the commercial
I think they are banking on the fact that most people don’t pay that much attention to detail while watching commercials. I tend to acknowledge they are on while dividing my attention elsewhere.
The goal of a commercial is to be noticed and remembered.
Ideally, they can change the girl and everyone can say “Oh shit, they changed the girl.” There is literally no benefit to changing it to a duplicate.
...and now I'm here
In that case they should just film ten of the same commercial
With a new actor who is a new minority/age/gender/size everytime. Then just put them on a cycle.

From Jeff's pre-game live blog:
# 5:03. They’re talking about Steinbrenner. It’s happening again. I don’t mean to be insensitive, but Steinbrenner chose a pretty bad day to die, because now he’s stealing the spotlight from the most important event of the season – the 2010 Major League Baseball All-Star Game. He’s also delaying it. Like they really need the help. We still have to wade through the long, drawn-out player introductions. The red carpet special was nothing. The action may not start for three hours.
# 5:08 now. Still Steinbrenner. Haven’t they been talking about this all day long? Was there another story that I missed? Play the game! The sooner the game starts, the sooner the game ends, and the end of the game is going to be everyone’s favorite moment of the evening.
# Just realized why they were still talking about Steinbrenner instead of going to the game. I forgot to change the channel from MLB Network to FOX. In my defense, look over there!
That’s our fearless leader.

You know what's funny about the word "cum" is,
it’s not a word.
Cum is a word as much as "rofl" or "lmao" are words.
But I’d probably lose that argument on the internet, too, so I’ll just drop it and pretend that a slang entry on dictionary.com counts.
Unless you’re citing it to show that cum is a preposition, in which case you know damn well that’s not what he or I meant.
Actually you are incorrect in asserting that slang and abbreviations are in any way the same thing.
Cum is clearly a word. Yes it is slang, but it is in very common usage. To argue otherwise is overly pedantic.

The word has been in the vernacular for at least 150 years

Not that I'm trying to skirt towards politics, but can we please just go back to Take Me Out to the Ballgame?
Pretty please with sugar on top?
That's part of the issue, and the part it's probably safer to talk about.
God Bless America is a harder song to sing, and it’s more bothersome when people mangle it, either willfully like that was or because they just can’t sing.
But with Take Me Out to the Ballgame, it’s actually more fun the worse it is sung.

Even though I'm sure most of you are reading it, from Jeff's liveblog:
“That the Home Run Derby and the All-Star Game routinely draw such an impressive ratings is not evidence that the Home Run Derby and the All-Star Game make for fine entertainment. It’s evidence that Americans would literally die if they didn’t have sports on TV. The average American’s life is so boring that he will tune in to the All-Star Game of his own volition.”
