One of the things I miss most about growing up is the pure joy of looking forward to Christmas morning. The anticipation was almost as good as the wrapping paper cyclone that engulfed the living room. Now that some unfortunate facts have been brought to my attention about the man in the "Big Red Coat", I have been forced to find my bliss down other avenues.

Near the top of that list is the only game that I find to be worthy of watching during the MLB All-Star Break. The Futures game has some of the best and brightest fantasy talent, all gathered in one ballpark. Some of the past performers I bet you didn't watch were: Ryan Braun (2006), Jay Bruce (2007), Lance Berkman (1999), Clay Bucholz (2007), Josh Beckett (2000), Erik Bedard (2001,2002), and Wladimir Balentien (2006,2007). Those are just the guys in the B's. You see my point…there is a ton of talent in this game.  Take a look at this year's rosters as the game is broken up into US born players vs. everyone else.  Check’em Out!
