Returning to sports Americans tend to care about, here's a good idea about one way to stick it to Bud Selig.
There are multiple levels of irony to this plan:
1. The All-Star Game is in Milwaukee; Selig owns the Brewers.
2. Miller Park, site of the game, is one of those corporate welfare tax-supported parks that owners extort from the locals. Neither Minnesota or Montreal have done this- and yet both are better teams than the Brewers.
3. Both Minnesota and Montreal have more all-star types on their roster than the Brewers (Twins have Torii Hunter, Corey Coskie, and perhaps Eddie Guardado; Monreal has Vladi Guererro, the lately-cold Michael Barrett, and the stone-gloved Jose Vidro; the Brewers have Richie Sexon and the streaky Jose Hernandez).
