bud_is_wiser: All right, so, to recap. |
 |
bud_is_wiser: This year a win in the 2006 All-Star Game means home-field advantage in the World Series, immunity during next week's Inferno Challenges, and large medals what made from gold. |
 |
bud_is_wiser: The game will be televised featuring flame graphics and sharp letters because this is all very important. |
 |
bud_is_wiser: The coaches for each team will, of course, parallel last year's World Series coaches. |
 |
OzzieOzzieOzzie: /readies tuxedo |
 |
bud_is_wiser: Yes, yes, so the coach of the American League All-Stars will be Terry Francona. |
 |
FranconaBun: It's an honor once again, Mr. Selig! |
 |
OzzieOzzieOzzie: /falls through plate glass window |
 |
bud_is_wiser: And the skipper for the National League All-Stars will be Joe Torre. |
 |
Torreumon: /picks nose |
 |
bud_is_wiser: Now we're going to pick teams, because when the fans vote it's always KEN GRIFFEY JR., BARRY BONDS, and KEN GRIFFY JR. starting in the outfield. |
 |
FranconaBun: okay, catcher, catcherrrr, hmmmm |
|
LawnMauer: How about me? I'm batting almost .400, have a perfect swing, and even seven stolen bases! Can't get much better than that. |
 |
FranconaBun: yeah but, I need someone with a much lower batting average than that. TEK, YER IN~! |
|
tekWar: awright!~ /piefaces Mauer with glove |
 |
Torreumon: too bad I've got to choose from the National Leaguers here, there are some pretty great first basemen in the AL huh |
 |
my_morneau_jacket: Mmhm, like me, I've got 20 homeruns and am a lock to be the first Twin in two decades to hit 30 in a season. Plus I've hit in 18 of my last 19 games. |
 |
Torreumon: Yer right, kid, you've been the spark your team's needed all season. I'm a, I'm a gonna go with Giambi. |
 |
long_live_giambi: Yes! *pumps fist* I won't let you down, coach! And if I do, you can wait and praise me for not letting you down next year! |
 |
my_morneau_jacket: /rests head against garbage-bagged wallspace |
 |
Torreumon: Terry, it's yer pick, go |
 |
FranconaBun: oh is it? Sorry, I was busy firing these guns at Gary Sheffield. What do I need next, a pitcher? Starting pitcher? |
 |
JohanSolo: best pitcher in baseball |
 |
FranconaBun: Jason Johnson |

JohanSolo: /explodes |
