Lee or Lilly?
I hate my pretentious sounding username too.

Who is our All Star?

I think Lee deserves it slightly more, but since he's behind Pujols, Gonzalez, and Fielder, I'll take Lilly. Theriot does have an outside chance behind Hanley and Tejada, but I doubt it.
The thing you need to remember is that all Cardinals fans and all White Sox fans are very bad people. It's a fact that has been scientifically proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. Being a Cubs fan is the only path to rightousness and piousness. Cardinal and White Sox fans exist to be the dark, diabolical forces that oppose us. They are the yin to our yang, the Joker to our Batman, the demon to our angel, the insurgence to our freedom, the oil to our water, the club to our baby seal. Their happiness occurs only in direct conflict with everything that is pure and good in this world.

Lee is the Cubs' All Star in the sense that he's been the MVP. Lilly will be an actual All Star.

As much as I think Lee deserves it, I don't believe any representative from our pathetic offense should be selected. And if it has to be a pitcher, either Lilly or Wells should get heavy consideration.

Wow, to actually see that in writing kind of took me aback...but you're right: D Lee has been our MVP. You're also right that he probably isn't going to San Diego. I agree with rok that Ted or the surprising Wells would both represent us well.
There's nothing better than to realize that the good things about youth don't end with youth itself. It's a matter of realizing that life can be renewed every day you get out of bed without baggage. It's tough to get there, but it's better than the dark thoughts. -Lance

Which reminds me of one of my favorite scenes in Anchorman: Ron Burgundy: Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it San Diego, which of course in German means a whale's vagina. Veronica Corningstone: No, there's no way that's correct. Ron Burgundy: I'm sorry, I was trying to impress you. I don't know what it means. I'll be honest, I don't think anyone knows what it means anymore. Scholars maintain that the translation was lost hundreds of years ago. Veronica Corningstone: Doesn't it mean Saint Diego? Ron Burgundy: No. No. Veronica Corningstone: No, that's - that's what it means. Really. Ron Burgundy: Agree to disagree.

As a plus, it appears the NL voters actually picked the best player to start, while the AL picked the biggest names.
