World Series Home-Field Advantage

The All-Star Game in baseball will be played before long. Typically in any major sport, these games and events are just for the fans, but not in baseball anymore. The winner of this game will decide which league's team will have home-field advantage in the World Series. Is it just me (don't answer that), but is this one of the dumbest ideas that Bud Selig has laid down? I know that this isn't the first year where this has taken place, but I've been blogging for less than a year, so it's the first time in my short blogger life for it to have taken place. There's a home run derby, an old-time classics game, along with other festivities that aren't for anything but entertainment for the fans. The All-Star shenanigans in hockey are there for the fans. The Pro Bowl in football is there for the players to go to Hawaii and for entertaining the fans. Notice the trend here? It's a game made for fun! The fans even get to decide who starts in the game with votes!...
