With the All-Star break about to end, let's take a good, hard look at the structure and some of the rules of Major League Baseball. Why? Well, let's be honest, there are some flaws in America's pastime.
Calling the players' offer "fair for both sides," star quarterbacks Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees — plaintiffs in an antitrust suit against the NFL which also includes the Giants' Osi Umenyiora — said Wednesday "it is time" to wrap up negotiations on a deal to end the league's lockout.
Mr. 3,000, Derek Jeter, has a fan in MLB commissioner Bud Selig. "Any concerns I keep hearing about Derek Jeter isn't here. I respect that. And I must tell you, I think I'd have made the same decision that Derek Jeter did," Selig said on Tuesday.
Absent from the endless discussions about how to improve baseball's All-Star game was the one that would solve all the problems immediately. End it.
Think back four months to that disappointing day in March when the NFL lockout began. The general opinion was the owners and players would reach a new labor agreement long before training camps opened. Oops.
We all learned something about Al Dukes that we wish we hadn't on Wednesday morning. Jerry, of course, just had to select it as his "Moment of the Day."
An overwhelmingly female jury with little interest in baseball will decide whether ex-Yankees hurler Roger Clemens lied to Congress when he said he never used performance-enhancing drugs.
Hall of Fame second baseman Ryne Sandberg called in this morning to talk with the guys about last night's Midsummer Classic in Phoenix and whether or not Derek Jeter should have been part of the festivities.

Last night, FOX thought it would be a good idea to interview Justin Timberlake while he sipped on an adult beverage at the All-Star game. As you might have guessed, it didn't turn out very well.
Derek Jeter has tarnished himself, says Steve Somers, and he thinks even the most die-hard Yankees fans will agree.
Jerry "Rello" Recco was all over the All-Star game this morning and everything else going on in the world of baseball.
While the National League was putting the finishing touches on their 5-1 over the American League in the 2011 All-Star Game, Mets GM Sandy Alderson was busy working out a trade that is sure to get people talking.
Prince Fielder hit a three-run homer and Roy Halladay and his relief combined on a six-hitter to lead the NL over the AL 5-1 Tuesday night, giving the senior circuit its first two-game winning streak since the mid-1990s.
