And that includes the games themselves. I would rather watch the home-run derby than any of the games or their events. I will give the MLB this, they have the best event at an all-star game.

The same can't be said for the MLB starters who ride the pine after the 4th inning and their 2nd at bat. Or the starting pitchers who "stretch" it out for 2 innings. AND............................................the NBA doesn't have the dumbest rule of all the all star games: this time it counts? Or am I thinking of the rule that every team has to get a player elected? Adam Jones, Francisco Cordero, Adam Bailey to name a few.

Every year someone in the NBAs version goes for 30, with a couple jaw-dropping dunks, alley oop passes, and steals, big deal. It's not every year that someone like Pedro comes in and Ks the likes of Barry Larkin, Larry Walker, Sammy Sosa, Mark McGwire and Jeff Bagwell, over 2 innings like he did in 99.

I say the MLB All-Star game is the best! The MLB guys play defense all 9 innings instead of just 9 mins. I flipped back and forth from the NBA game to something else ... every time I had the game on it just seemed like a bunch of dudes goin thru the motions waiting for somebody to do something fancy to get a library-like crowd all-into-it. I couldn't watch. When you have Halladay against A-Rod or Cliff Lee facing Chase Utley ... all in the 2010 MLB All-Star game ... nobody is changing the channel. Certainly not me. I disagree!
