To fulfill Alderman Cook's request for more baseball, here is a post on how Major League Baseball has spruced up the All-Star Game festivities (MLB Goes Eco). I was in St. Louis this past weekend for the Futures All-Star game and it was great to see recycle bins everywhere, and the above article prominently displayed in the Sunday St. Louis Post-Dispatch describing so many other eco-friendly features of the event. Just another sign that 'green' is mainstream.

The only thing that could be sweeter is the National League ending this eleven game losing streak in my beloved Cardinals home park!
