Note. As of the All-Star Break the $200 Million Yankee$ have the fifth best record in Baseball. Carry on.

Have fun with that. When the game was in Milwaukee Fanfest was well attended, and then Bud Selig's biggest blunder. Year was 2002.

Then it happened. After two extra innings the game was called at a tie. Commissioner Bud Selig was left with little options and made the ultimate decision to call the game. It was the first tie in All-Star play since a game in 1961 was stopped by rain. Even worse, there was no Most Valuable Player picked. Bad timing, too, since the trophy was renamed to honor Ted Williams, the Hall of Famer who died July 5. While the sport's most memorable moments were shown earlier on the board, baseball also paused to remember St. Louis pitcher Darryl Kile and Cardinals broadcaster Jack Buck. Kile's No. 57 jersey hung in the National League dugout and Buck's widow was in attendance.

IS the NFL still stroking the Rooney's member for that gift of a Super Bowl in Pittsburgh?
