Dog Days

These are the worst days imaginable to be a Pittsburgh sports fan.

-Hockey and all it's glory has ended.
-We are still about 2 months away from any sort of meaningful Steeler game. The Pirates are still the Pirates.
-The Pittsburgh Passion had their season ended by the Chicago Force 8-7...............
-(Thats right... 8-7)
-Ugh... Womens football.
-The Steelers ownership is in limbo. Kinda.
-The Pens have lost a lot of great players.
- You know the Pirates are about to trade Nady, Mclouth and Bay for 2 prospects and a pack of shoelaces.

Enough of that.

Yet, I still have crap to write.

Last night was the 79th Annual MLB All-Crap Game.
Nate Mclouth threw out the potential winning run in extra innings and almost homered to win the game.

(Youtube has to to produce an upload of a good quality video from the game... probably because everyone left.)

Michael Young of the Texas Rangers drove in the winning RBI on a Sacrifice Fly in the bottom of the 15th inning, around 1:30 am.

I was actually watching it.

In my opinion, having the winning league obtain home-field advantage in the World Series is a joke and a half.
A team fights all year to buy the best players they can because they have all the money in the world and the sway to do so, yet they might lose their advantage because some douche hits a Sac-Fly in the bottom of the 15th off a used up pitcher.

Come on.

Even though that came across as sarcasm, I still feel that MLB needs to change up the All-Star game a bit, because there are just too many flaws.

His ACL has requested the season off though.
