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. 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!
