All stars / ESPY's / Vermont

Good all star game
(here are my notes from watching the game.)
PRE-GAME HIGHLITES
Can not beleive they have Eric Byrnes in a kayak, with his dog! There was no way Bynnes last the whole game in the water. I do not care if he is a bay area kid.
Angles and LA players getting booed at the all star game. (Now i know why most people of SF like Barry Bonds.) Peavey and Lackey seame to be enjoying getting booded by SF fans. (I see the humor in it).
Willie getting a ride around the field. (should have been on a Lexus though)
(Joe Buck and Timmy are destroying this pre-game.)
I can not beleive the dog is still on the kayak.
1st inning.
Is Bynre's dog still in the kayak? I'm worried about him.
Dan Harren looks like a deer in the headlights. I think he just realized his wife is super hot.
Does FLOWMAX really have all thiose side effects? I think i would rather pee my pants.

2nd inning.
We lead the Prince like Tatoo's (no shit - seen his neck?)
I think Tim McCarver just turned into rainman. I have no idea what the hell he's saying.
When did Dan Cook start doing MLB commercials?

3rd inning
Ichiro is on a roll. I smell MVP......
WOW, A-rod really look disinterested on that last pitch.
Bonds warning tracks a ball. He made it look like he got a hold of one but you know it was not gone. He did the "Sammy Hop for steriods!"

4th inning
Was it Griffey or A-rod? Was it a great throw by Griffey? or a bad hammy from A-rod that made that play at home?
Joe and Tim in the booth make comments about Bonds and Steroids. (SUPRISE!) Ken chimes in with the "we'll never know" and "smoke and mirrors lines". In other words Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah.....

5th inning.
ICHIRO goes yard! With out leaving the yard. That boy can fly. The M;s should renew his contract and give him 100 million dollars. (wait, they already have.)
Someone catch the dog! Holy crap he's swimming away? How come Byrnes didn't jump in after him? Where's PETA when you need them. ( Note: I love Eric Byrnes and a broadcaster. If you ever watch him in the booth he does it the same way he plays baseball, out-of-controll. Last year durring the World series i thought his head was going to explode at one point. Either that or he was going to pull a Lindo Blair spin around.)

6th inning
The park has WI-FI. Anyone know someone blogging right from the ball park? No? Me either.
D-Rays go yard. Good for Carl Crawford. Hay, at least he'll affect the world series somehow.
Exactly how many bats have shattered tonight? I know VLAD did on at least two of them.
FOX pulled out the whole Russell Martin / Turtle / Entourage thing. (saw that one coming a mile away)

7th inning
Saw my 1st underdog commercial (was flipping channels). I'm pissed it's not a cartoon. (on that note i am really pissed The Transformers was not released in a cartoon form. Going to see it this weekend. I'll let you know if i change my mind.)
(waiting for "God bless America" to begin.
Still waiting.
Still waiting.
Paula Cole? Who? She's famous? If she is she should raise a big stink about the who keyboard thing.
Johan Santana is NASTY!

8th inning
I think McCarver and Buck have been drinking in the booth. Neither are making any sense.
Martines goes deep for the AL. (Which Martines you ask? Not telling.)

9th inning.
I know Hoffman is the saves king but how many has be blown?
SORI goes yard - one run game.
Larussa is a moron, No he a MORON. WHY would you let Arron Rowand hit when you have Albert and Chris Young on the bench? WHY? For the love of GOD why? Holy Crap, Pujols is gonna be pissed. I cna not see Albert for the rest of the year breaking Tony's chops. If i was Al everytime i walk by Larussa i'm screaming something like "I coulda hit that" or "Where your boy Rowand NOW!"

AL wins 5-4. Ichiro is MVP (although i really do not think he want's the Tahoe, he keeps looking at it like he expects to see a Toyota.)
Jeanie Zelasko looks HOT tonight.
