Real last-minute gift idea

We're now counting the hours until the big man arrives. But what if you realize you didn't get the perfect item for those hard-to-please baseball fans in your life?

What do you do?

Get them Steve Phillips. Or Charlie Manuel. Or how about Bob Uecker?

Those guys, and many more, are available to book for personal appearances through Athlete Promotions. I know Christine couldn't wrap up Curt Schilling and put him under the tree, so I wonder which package with my name on it contains the details about when Curt is going to come talk to me.

To help you procrastinating shoppers, here's a roster of Phillies available to book:

C: Darren Daulton
1B: Pete Rose
2B: Ryne Sandberg
3B: Mike Schmidt
SS: Larry Bowa
LF: Rex Hudler
CF: Lenny Dykstra
RF: Dale Murphy
Bench: Lance Parrish, Dale Sveum, Davey Lopes, Todd Zeile, Tony Perez
SP: Curt Schilling, Steve Carlton, Ferguson Jenkins, Fernando Valenzuela, Jim Bunning
RP: Billy Wagner, Larry Andersen, Roger McDowell, Sparky Lyle, Dave Stewart
Manager/Coaches: Charlie Manuel, Terry Francona, Dale Sveum

So before you hang your stockings and say your prayers because Santa Claus comes tonight, book a Phillie.
