Bee and Jai of Jugalbandi (home to dozens of drool-worthy pictures) are hosting a new themed food photography event. The event, called CLICK, kicks off this month with the theme: Eggs! Eggs are on the weekend brunch menu nearly every weekend at our home. We are loyal to our favorite dishes, and I love a spicy, savory brunch, so it is usually a choice between Pateta par Eeda, Egg-Onion Float, Omelette, and a fourth eggy dish that I have not blogged yet, French toast, Indian style. This last dish is completely unlike America... lire la suite

December 29, 2007
You might have heard about how over the past week, Indiana University has been pleading its case to the NCAA, trying to stay away from some kind of death sentence. The trangressions by Kelvin Are You In My 5? Sampson were pretty sickening, especially considering that he had similar problems at Oklahoma, but I would offer up that the school's basketball program has already went through as big of a fall as has ever happened to a major power in the sport and shouldn't face more.
I'm currently swamped with a bunch of projects that actually pay me money. I know I have slacked here at the Juice Blog, so I wanted to create some activity while I'm finishing up my obligations. Since this site features any type of subject matter, I'm soliciting points of view on sports, music, television, movies, politics, candy bars, etc.
The amount of time I have to give to the Juice Blog I suspect will become less in the near future, so I'm looking for Toaster readers who have ideas for baseball pieces that feature the type of edginess you would expect here. I'm not looking for a partner at this point, but I guess it could develop into that if I can find the right person to grow the site.
I totally shouldn't say anything, because I'm sure I'm jinxing something, but the machine that Baseball Toaster runs on has been running without a single reboot for 366 days now.
I'm sure many readers at the Toaster were deeply saddened by the death of Dungeons and Dragons founder Gary Gygax, on Tuesday. While the only role-playing I've ever had any real interest in was more the I've been a bad schoolboy, please don't punish me too much, Headmistress, I have fond memories of my brother and his nerdy friends getting all hyped up rolling dice like they were the Rat Pack at The Sands.
In my last season preview, I thought there was only one superior team and that was the Red Sox. Well, this year I think it is more wide open than that, as I believe Boston has fallen off just enough to join the pack of flawed, but potential world champion teams. Below is the way I see it, with predicted wins next to each club.
When it comes to baseball, I believe the tenets of the sabermetrical approach are holy. except for relief pitching. I have watched enough guys blow leads in the 8th and 9th innings to realize that the last 2 frames of a game are the toughest to have success. I know many sabermetricians believe that you can run a bullpen by committee and it can be successful.
Now you probably heard about this over the weekend, Hillary drinking the alcohol, because it is obviously the story of the campaign. The one that will determine the presidency. For a little more background: Hillary was being very working class this weekend by drinking alcohol and then shooting guns, in that order.
Prior to last night's Rockies-Padres marathon, the last time a game in the majors went 22 innings was in 1993 when the Twins beat the Indians 5-4. Thankfully for both teams, that game was played on August 31, so there was help on the way the next day. The game ended on a home run by Pedro Munoz off of Jason Grimsley.
Bronx Banter: Cleveland Indians
My guess is that those who gravitate towards writing blogs are politically similar to those who are journalists or those who have chosen to go into to into the entertainment field. actors, screenwriters, musicians, etc. When you choose to go into a creative field, I don't think it's a stretch to say that you are someone with a large ego---someone who thinks that their talents need to be consumed by a larger audience.
Since this is a day for Baseball Toaster to discuss top ten baseball books, I thought I'd drop in my 10 favorite baseball books. I don't know if they qualify as best or essential or influential or perhaps any or all.
Actual e-mails among actual Toasterites, accompanied by the play-by-play that inspired the messages:
Since the Yankees and Indians split a four-game series in Cleveland a week ago, the Yankees split a pair of three-game sweeps and the Tribe went 2-3. All five wins, by both teams, came against the hapless Mariners, who are now nursing a five-game losing streak. The rain erased a sixth Cleveland contest, conveniently pushing C.
In the top of the fifth in the second game of a doubleheader in Cleveland, Toronto's Lyle Overbay lined into an unassisted triple play. Indians second baseman Asdrubal Cabrera pulled it off.
In tonight's White Sox-Indians game in Chicago, Cleveland pulled off the first triple stealsince, I believe, 1987.
Congrats to SF Yanks, who created object #1,000,000 in the Fairpole system, a comment on Bronx Banter:
Assuming that not EVERYONE on Baseball Toaster is a Lakers fan (although Dodger Thoughts people would want you to believe that), I'm putting up a thread about the NBA Finals.
