Both games have no value. I have long been puzzled by all the media attention that MLB's All Star game gets. The interesting thing is that both leagues understand this. How else to explain this year's change for the Pro Bowl and the institution a couple of years ago of home field advantage in the World Series being decided by the All Star Game than the leagues' trying desperately to give some meaning to otherwise meaningless exibitions?

As usual it's all about the money. Any way to scam a few more bucks from the TV networks and fans.
