1. 'How hot is Erin Andrews?' The one rhetorical question every ESPN anchor was thinking but failed to slip up and say aloud. Sorry YouTube.
2. Reggie Jackson. Still a pompous, self-aggrandizing prick after all these years. Here's to hoping that he's stuck in a stall at Yankee Stadium when the wrecking ball hits.
3. Evan Longoria is one letter away from Eva Longoria, and twice as hot!!!
4. No, really, you are right: the credibility and watchability of the derby isn't at all affected by the fact that seven of the top ten leading home run hitters of this season aren't participating. Paging Ryan Howard. Ryan Howard. Please pick up the white courtesy phone. Along with Utley, Uggla isn't even outrightly leading his team in home runs. Mid-market. Mid-market. Mid-market. Small-market. Small-market. Bored!
5. Remind me again who is sponsoring this event? Something Farm? Are they the ones with the funny little talking lizard? He's hilarious!
6. It's a rough night for the Boys and Girls Club of America - and for way-too-happy farmers from, God bless him, Brimfield, Illinois. Pujols would've kindly put that ball in the left-field loge. No question.
7. Morneau can't be serious about keeping that trophy. a) He's Canadian and this is Yankee Stadium. b) He hit thirteen fewer total home runs than Hamilton. c) Hamilton hit more bombs in one round than Morneau hit all night, notwithstanding that d) Hamilton abandoned the second round after only four outs. e) The man is a recovering heroin addict who found Jesus and dreamt about coming to Yankee Stadium and competing in the State Farm Home Run Derby before he even returned to the big leagues. Don't foil our mythologies again, Canada! Somebody call Selig and have him change the rules in the middle of the competition again.
Bonus: 8. Whah?!?! 3 Doors Down!?! What, were the Goo Goo Dolls unwilling to commit?
