I don't believe that's true, either,
since the American Revolution came before the French Revolution, and the Constitution was ratified the same year as the Bourbons were overthrown.
It IS true that the American, French, and Polish Revolutions are often grouped together as all being part of one consistent liberal democratic movement, though.

The American one
is considered the rebirth of the “Republic” whereas the French were more of a “pure” democratic process. According to this little pink book that I despise.

which commercial?
So, I think this game is somewhere on the East Coast, and I'm pretty sure someone mentioned that this time it counts. What it counts for, I'm still not sure. Also, there are some pretty good players in this one. Some of the best, I think.

The Dbacks one.
I thought it was a local commercial at first, then I realized that it’s a network ad.

Among other things,
the Rockies are not locked in a tight division race with the Dbacks, the way the BoSox and Rays are. Also, Webb is older and more experienced than Kazmir and can probably handle the extra workload better than Kazmir can. Remember that Webb has pitched something like the most innings in the NL over the last 3 years.

It's an exhibition game, so it's a distraction -- like the Somme,
but it’s become the main event, the way the Somme overtook Verdun. I feel like the NL has been the Germans so far, resisting the AL Entente which keeps throwing more and more guys into the meatgrinder…. loading the bases again and again, only to be cut down repeatedly by accurate fire by Martin and others.

Four players K’d three or more times that day [Alley,.Clemente, Oliva and Allen] – no other game has had more than one. Of course, it certainly helped that it went 15 innings – Clemente and Oliva had six at-bats each! Don’t see that in an All-Star game any more…

That makes Bud Selig shift uncomfortably in his seat – particularly as a result of a jackass decision like “This time, it counts” – is alright by me.

I think there was plenty of uncomfortable shifting in seats last night- particularly since each manager had to run out a pitcher who pitched 100+ pitches two days earlier, and wasn’t supposed to pitch tonight- and in each case, said pitcher was the manager’s division rival’s ace.
And, since this time it counts, they couldn’t even let it end in a tie. Which means, according to this article, we were close to having someone like Evan Longoria and Nate McLouth as the pitchers of record. How stupid would that have been?
