All-Star game hard to watch

February 19, 2007

There have been times that the All-Star game had appeal to me. I think most of those times Magic Johnson and Isaiah Thomas were running the point for their respective conferences.
The latest edition from Las Vegas was about like watching a Hollywood awards show. If you were dying to see the faces of the stars, you might tune in.
But be prepared for a very dull evening.

All-Star games without defense just don't work in hockey or basketball. And defense is the last thing on their mind.
Until further notice, baseball is the only All-Star game worth the time to flip the channel in that direction. The pitcher-batter matchup is intense enough to make that one worth watching.
