This should be fun. The best team in the American League against the best team in the National League. Two of the greatest pitching matchups we'll see all season. A glimpse of old friend David Wells. It's not that crazy to say the Red Sox and Padres will be eyeing each other with visions of an October rematch dancing in their heads. Daisuke Matsuzaka goes tonight in the first game. So this will be his...

What a depressing ending. All of the characters were in place, the tension was building, the smell of a big finish was in the air, and then...nothing. Zip. Just like that, it was all over. We kept looking for some extra time, or some trick being played on us, or something to keep us from screaming, "That's IT?!?!?!?"

Randy Johnson is up against Chyna-Doll, Otis Nixon competes with Curt Warner's wife, Bill Walton takes on Reggie Miller, and our favorite...

Gottfried gets the nod for being, well, Gilbert Gottfried – has anyone ever cast him as a sex symbol? All sorts of press attention have come out of the list, and he’s almost always included in the article as holding top honor – good for him with his “Dirty Jokes” still fresh on the market.
