Which major sport in the United States has the best All-Star game?

 

This weekend is the 2012 NBA All-Star game in Orlando, Florida. These gets me think which major sport in the United States has the best All-Star game. Is it Major league Baseball, National Basketball Association, National Football League, or National Hockey League?

Well the MLB All-Star game hosted in July and it the halfway point in the season. They have the Homerun Derby and the Futures Game. The winning conference in the MLB All-Star game gets home field advantage in the World Series. The NBA All-Star game happens in the month of February and has few events over three days. Starting with the Rising Star Challenge, then skills competition like the Sprite Slam Dunk and ending with All-Star game itself. The winning conference does not get an advantage in the NBA finals, they only the satisfaction of beating the other conference. *The NHL has its annual All-Star game in the month of January, which is the midway point of the season. They have skills competitions over few days leading up the All-Star game. The Winner of the NHL All-Star game gets trophy and the satisfaction of beating the other conference. The NFL has it’s annual All-Star game (Pro Bowl), which is held in January before or after the Super Bowl. It is usually held in Hawaii, but in recent years they have moved to different locations.  The winner of the Pro Bowl gets a trophy for their conference, but the interesting thing about the Pro Bowl is that all the players in each conference get paid.

I think that when it comes down to which major sport in America has the best All-Star game, the winner is the MLB All-Star game because one team will get home field advantage in the World Series. The American and National league players take this game seriously unlike the NFL Pro Bowl, which is becoming a joke. What do you think? Do you agree with me?
