I can't for the life of me figure out who signed this ball... I looked at the 2003 All Star Roster and nothing. I also looked at all number 24s for 2003 and still nothing. Am I missing something?

No. 24 and No. 5....
Post responses like the above two are what makes this world a great place to live in.
The 2003 All-Star Game was in Chicago and the White Sox hosted. There are numerous events that go on during All-Star week, and the sigs could be from any one of those.
Like you, I looked at the actual All-Star Game rosters and came up empty. I looked at the Futures Game rosters, and no luck there either. I checked out the 2003 White Sox roster, and ditto.
There was likely a celebrity event, so the signatures could be from players on other Chicago sports teams (Bears, Bulls, Cubs, Blackhawks, etc), or even players from college teams. There is usually a Fanfest event, where players from all MLB teams and eras make appearances. I happen to have a 2012 All-Star Game ball from when it was hosted in Kansas City signed by Fergie Jenkins when he was present at Fanfest. Your ball could quite literally be signed anyone.
