Doug:
Oh, c'mon, don't give me that "glory of the game" crap.
Doug:
The All Stah Game is to the glory of big league baseball what seeing a lion show at the circus is to the glory of African savannah. It's trivial, dumbed down mock entertainment is what it is.
Doug:
Baseball is about trying to win the World Series. Nothing less.
Al:
I dunno. I think there's something cool about seeing the Red Sox All Stars out there in their game whites representing Boston and the fans.
Doug:
Yeah, OK, Al, and if tomorrow we learn that Josh Beckett tore or blistahd or othahwise tenderized his dainty digits aftah pitching in the All Star Game, how cool is that gonna be?
