Yes it is…it’s a magic number. Everybody old enough to notice the Schoolhouse Rock reference, raise your hand and head directly for Conjunction Junction.

Three is the magic number of Roughnecks named to the All Star team Thursday as the rosters were filled out. While I’m still not happy Lewis Ratcliff isn’t a starter, at least he is heading for his 4th straght classic. Let’s see if he can become a 2-time MVP after pulling that stunt off at the 2006 game.

Rookie All-Stars Jeff Shattler and Andrew McBride get to make their first trip. It’s just too bad that trip is to Edmonton instead of, say, Philadelphia or Chicago. No Scott Ranger, but I guess you can’t have everything. Scotty, you’re still an All-Star in my book. Sadly that doesn’t get you a cool Jersey, dinner, a trip, and a shot at a flat-screen TV, but there’s the way it otta be, and the way it is.
