Four days for the All Star Break?

Post by heyzeus »

F'n Selig. Four? This is not football. You don't need four days of recovery from the strain of flying on a chartered jet, sleeping in a top of the line hotel suite, then standing around for 3 hours then running out a grounder 4 times.

3 days is more than enough for an ASB. Get back to business, you loafers.

with their internal discussions about adding another playoff team, why didn't they say "Let's keep the ASB to 3 days just in case we need to add an extra playoff game in at the end of the season so we don't have a goofy ass 2-3 playoff format for the first round."

It sucks for fantasy too, since it narrows one week to 3 days. Which is half the ABs and double the random variation.

I believe this week extends to next week as well. At least on Yahoo!.

I'm taking advantage of the time off by going to see Magic Mike.

Well, that was a fun All Star Game (not really) and it was nice to have that break, and now it's time to return to good ol' baseball and...what? There are no games today? For no [expletive] reason at all?

[expletive] YOU SELIG GAHHHHH
