As far as the all-star game is concerned. I have always found it to be worthless. It means nothing. I have no interest in seeing a game that doesn't count for anything, that lacks intensity, and pits the AL vs. the NL if there is interleague play.

That being said, at least now there is some reason for me to follow the game. Some people will say that it is unfair to the team with the best record during the regular season. It's true it is. But, you get home field throughout your league's playoffs for having the best record. You're not matched up against the other league (AL or NL), so why shouldn't the all-star game be allowed to hold the prestige of giving the winning league home field advantage.
