In the last few years, I’ve always completely ignored the way the Tigers MLB site pestered me to “vote the straight party ticket“ and try to get the whole team into the All-Star game.
“Back in the day“ of MTS I remember voting 100 times to get <cough> Bonderman on to the AL All-Star roster and a part of me has never forgiven myself for drinking that Kool-Aid.
I don’t know if I will bother doing it now that things are different or not. It seems fruitless.
The idea that a person who thinks Verlander left the Tigers to get a big free agent contract has a vote equivalent to my own appalls me.
