We are heading into the eighth installment of the show folks and still going strong. The feedback has been great. This week's All-Star Bloggers show will air at 10:00 pm EST on Wednesday evening. We have had over 1200 hits on the show on the archive and our live listener base has been strong so I thank you for that!

Last week, I tweaked the show format a bit and did the show by myself and went right to the phone lines. This week I will have two guests and we will divide the show into two segments; a 10:00-10:30 segment and a 10:30-11:00 segment. The lineup for this week is as follows:


Wednesday, July 11, 2007, 10:00 pm EST
kenrickthomas - 10:00
Neil Blackmon (theninthinning) - 10:30

We have some interesting items to discuss this week including:

1) The topic of the quality of blogging on the Fox Sports site as well as some interesting political commentary was brought up last week by Kendrick so we will discuss that a bit.

2) The Major League All-Star game is taking front and center sports news so we will wrap up the first half of the season and look ahead to the second half of the season with Neil. Neil is a good friend of mine and he is new to the Fox Sports blogging community so I wanted to get him on the show to introduce himself and talk some baseball. He really is like a young Peter Gammons!

We will discuss/debate these issues but we also want to hear what YOU have to say!

Just a few quick things:

1) The show is going to go on at 10:00 pm instead of 11:00 for those of you that can't remember when we air.

2) Promote the show. Mention the upcoming show in your blogs. Maybe include a link to the show:

http://www.blogtalkradio.com/All_Star_Bloggers_Show

the more promotion = the more listeners.

3) I think I'm doing better with the phone calls each week and I'll try to do even better this week. As I've been saying, the show is a work in progress and I know some folks did not get their calls through last week. I will try my best to correct this.

4) The call in number is (646) 478-5128. Please don't hesitate to call in. Part of what makes the show special is the interaction with the callers who bring such a strong dimension to the show. Also, if you would like to be a guest on the All-Star Bloggers show, please contact me at Gatordebate@aol.com. There are so many great bloggers out there and I want to give anyone that wants to have it, a chance to come on the show. Make no mistake folks, the show is not about me but about the great guests we have had, we are having and will continue to have. This is a show by the bloggers and for the bloggers. I promise to try my best to not mess it up!

I hope you all tune in on Wednesday evening!

After a day of backyard barbeque's,drinking some brews, and watching baseball, make sure you come on over to BlogTalkRadio.com and check out this week's All-Star Bloggers Show. This week's All-Star Bloggers show will air at 10::00 pm EST on Wednesday evening.

The guests for this week's show will be..........................

YOU!!!

That's right folks, this week's guests will be the callers that call into the show. In the spirit of Independence Day (coupled with the fact that few folks would commit to doing a show on a holiday), we are turning the entire show over to the callers, many of whom are great bloggers at Fox Sports. Over the past few weeks, I've had trouble getting to all of the callers so for this week we will take a page from the Rush Limbaugh playbook and have "open mike Wednesday."

Got a rant? Share it with us.

Got a question? Share it with me.

Looking for a debate? Bring it on!

I'll give my rant on what's got me worked up in the world of sports and then the phone lines will open!

There are a few things that have ME pissed off in the world of sports this week:

1) Big Papi should not be starting in the 2007 MLB All-Star game. The guy played seven games at 1B and either Youkilis or Morneau should be starting ahead of him. He is NOT a first baseman.

2) Grant Hill is thinking of going to the Suns? The guy makes $93 million from the Magic who stuck with him through a ton of injury plagued seasons and this is how he wants to pay back the fans of Orlando? What a jerk.

3) Yi Gianlin says he wants to be traded from the Bucks. I think he should just shut up and sign with the team that drafted him but I don't think the Bucks did there homework either. Just like when the Magic drafted Rudy Fernandez with the 11th pick a few years back and he opted to stay in Spain, should teams do a bit more homework before they make a draft day blunder?

I will give my take on these issues but I also want to hear what YOU have to say!

Just a few quick things:

1) The show is going to go on at 10:00 pm. This will be our time slot.

2) Promote the show. Mention the upcoming show in your blogs. Maybe include a link to the show:

the more promotion = the more listeners.

3) The call in number is (646) 478-5128. Please don't hesitate to call in. Part of what makes the show special (and this show in particular) is the interaction with the callers who bring such a strong dimension to the show.

I hope you all tune in on Wednesday evening!

I never thought I would see a worst dressed draftee than Karl Malone in the 1985 NBA Draft.....

...until I saw Joakim Noah come on the stage tonight!

The bow tie might be worse than the knit tie and although Malone looked like he pulled a pair of old Dockers out of his closet and mugged a 6'11" waiter on his way to the draft, nothing compares to the Krusty the Klown Hair and the peace sign. This image will live in infamy FOREVER!!!

Go Gators!
