Home Run Derby/AS Game

Two thoughts. First of all what Hamilton did in the first round was amazing. I don't know if people realize how hard it is to hit a baseball like that.
Second, it's a rip off that the total score doesn't some how come into play. If one guy hits 35 homers and uses 25 outs, that's gotta be better than 18 homers on 30.
Anyone else watching the game tonight??

The media blatantly distorted what Papelbon said. It's disgusting.

Aaron Cook is da bomb.
Two out calls that should have been called safe, though.

Have I ever mentioned how I LOOOOOOOOOVE long baseball games??
And as far as the two "outs" go, those go for outs 99.98 percent of the time.
I am REALLY impressed with Martin, although how Buck and McCarver get to have the jobs they have kills me.
