What the hell is a HR off to end the game?

About 15-20 years ago. Just an exhibition now. The Schwarb bombs were great though. Pure power
hitter who says eff BA.

Pro sports needs to optimize viewership by adding gazillions of "casual" fans.
It's the old three ring circus marketing model.

Exactly. It was a good show. Hasn’t been a real game in years. Hockey has something similar in real
games. Soccer has penalty kicks. All gimmicks from the real sport. Having it in a true exhibition is okay by me.

And why do folks watch Savannah Bananas?
Watched one inning at my brother’s house a few weeks ago. Horrible. Like watching Hee Haw.

Why do you care what other people watch?
For example, I don't give a flying fuck about the Emmys but I don't care that that's your thing.

Same reason that back in the day they watched Max Patkin, the clown prince of baseball.

Did you also watch the Lawrence Welk Show? We watched Carol Burnett. Now, that was funny!

I still catch the Lawrence Welk Show on PBS.
He was a talent.

They are the Harlem Globetrotters of baseball. You either love or hate them.

About 10 years ago when they started dragging couches out on the field.

Why was the all star game back in Atlanta after its 2021 cancellation?
Same Georgia voting laws. Nothing changed. Is Rob Manfred any less a moron now than he was back in 2021?
