All-Star Break

Baseball still has the best All-Star Game, although the tall foreheads who run the game have been doing their level best to remove all its mystique.

For those of you who've forgotten, let me review exactly why baseball has always had - and should still have - the best such exhibition.

First off, forget the NFL. No one cares about football after the championship has been decided. Granted, I barely care before but that's neither here nor there.

Baseball's all-star game is far better than the NBA and NHL all-star games, which at least are also staged in mid-season.
