Graci Cloud


You have to include 'Le Grande Orange,' Rusty Staub

Tim Rak


How about former New York Rangers defenseman, Per Djoos?

Shalom Goldberg


How about Bob Lemon-ade day in the Bronx? Just a thought for one of those 95 degree, 98 percent humidity afternoons in late July and August.

John Kenny


For a fresh twist on 7th-inning stretch entertainment, you can bring in British pop band Squeeze. They can perform their early '80s hit, "Tempted by the fruit of another."

Sean Decker


Former Senator Bob Dole should definitely not be invited.

Patrick Clevenger


How about hiring Bananarama as the ball girls and Don "Grapes" Cherry as public address announcer?

Marc Williams


In an obvious marketing ploy, the Astros acquire Luis Castillo, Sean Casey and Eric Chavez and bat them 1-2-3 in the batting order so they can nickname them the Hi-C's.

Seth Wiesen


How could you do this segment without working in Mark Lemonjello?

Thomas Keith
