Ichiro Good Luck for AL All Stars

After a long and drawn out All Star Game for the last time in Yankee Stadium, the AL All Stars finally won their 6th straight All Star Game in 15 innings. Although no team won in 2002, as a result of a tie, the NL team has not won an All Star Game since 1996. Ichiro has been to the All Star Game since 2001 representing the Mariners and has not lost in the game since. Last year, he won MVP honors in San Francisco and scoring the first in-the-park homer in All Star Game history. Recently, reports from AL All Stars are that the Japanese import is the secret to the AL's recent success due to a speech he gives before the game. He gives a speech, in English, cursing out the NL team. Ichiro usually uses an interpreter for interviews, but this speech is all on his own. It's been quoted as "Bleep, bleep, National League, bleep, bleep, bleeping National bleep." Below is an interview with Bob Costas, including Ichiro speaking some English....he' never going to play for the Royals: (Explicit Language)
