All Star Games Suck
They're boring, and they lack any real interest.

The leagues should save money and just cancel these games.

1. No I like the baseball and hockey all star games.
The Pro Bowl is just awful .. such a let down right after the Super Bowl .. and the NBA All Star Game has become a commercialized disgrace.

3. baseball is the only one worth a damn.
The NHL all Star game is a complete joke (unless some idiot thinks 16-10 games somehow represents hockey). Basketball is ok, but meanningless, and the less said about the Pro Bowl the better. :)

4. I agree, baseball is the only one that is really good. I suppose hockey is second and the others
blow.

6. It's just an exhibition game. The fact the Selig had to go and stupidize it is even worse.
Leave it to Selig to fuck it up.

7. Baseball is the only one that actually plays the game as it normally is.

No one hits in hockey's, football's is a joke with no blitzing and other rule changes, no defense, hard fouls or travelling rules in basketball's.

All-star games suck.
