Milkman delivers Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 I voted a ton of times for Podsednik and AJ when they were on the final ballots, but I don't think I'll vote even once for Konerko. It's nothing against PK, I just don't give a s*** about this game and whether or not he goes. The whole ASG annoys me, from the voting to every team needing a representative to the fact that it weighs into the World Series for some stupid reason. I don't think I've even watched the last two games or any of the ASB festivities. And seriously, if I were Konerko, I'd rather just go home for those three days instead of having to take part in such a farcical game. Sorry to take away from the point of the thread, I think I just needed to vocalize (so to speak) my reasoning for not caring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxPride56 Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 I've voted for Paulie via text a little over 2,000 already. I wish the All Star ballot was done via text! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next one should come tomorrow afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uman85 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I've voted over 100 times on MLB.com and now have been voting a ton via text and will continue to do so. Paulie is way more deserving than many of the current "All-Stars". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying a lot of the guys on the squad aren't more deserving than Paulie. He shouldn't have to be on the Final Vote ballot to get in. He's having a great year.

Konerko isn't an all-star candidate, he is an MVP candidate. He is a borderline triple crown candidate. How he isn't on the all-star team is embarassing.

Kenny Hates Prospects Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I just had a small plane go over me pulling a banner saying "Vote For Paul Konerko." Are fans behind this? Maybe the one or more of the players? Pretty cool anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSqwert Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 That could have been a banner for local race for Comptroller. Paul Gustaffson is running this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
