Yesterday, my phone beeped a few minutes before 7:00 am Strange time to be getting texts. I grabbed my phone: "HOLY HELL, WE GOT IGINLA." And with that, I was stupid happy all day long. I was silly, giddy, punch-drunk, I was like a dog going to the park or a kid on Christmas morning. Nothing phased me all day long. If, like me, you lived throu...

Balls and Whistles: Sunday Recipe: Gram's Ravioli
http://ballsandwhistles.blogspot.com/2010/12/sunday-recipe-christmas-ravioli.html
At the intersection of sports and real life . Sunday, December 19, 2010. Sunday Recipe: Gram's Ravioli. I was taught to make the dough by making a flour well and then slowly whipping the eggs with a fork, being careful not to break the well, then bit by maddening bit, working the flour into the well. You can do this if you like, but I have to warn you, it is labor intensive. And, did I mention, maddening? Yeah, that too. Enough with the history lesson, on with the cooking. For the dough, you will need:.

Aller/Getty Images North America). He whiffs too much. He's undisciplined at the plate. His batting average is too low. He can't lay off the high heat. He can't hit a curveball. He looks bad striking out. Am I missing any of the routine criticisms of Pirates 3rd baseman, Pedro Alvarez? You can, too. You can talk to me about the goo...

Balls and Whistles: Andrew McCutchen, Joel Hanrahan and the Great All-Star Snub of 2011
http://ballsandwhistles.blogspot.com/2011/07/andrew-mccutchen-joel-hanrahan-and.html
At the intersection of sports and real life . Monday, July 4, 2011. Andrew McCutchen, Joel Hanrahan and the Great All-Star Snub of 2011. Random thoughts from Bucco Central. While we're here, I didn't believe in the Pirates when the season started. Why, really, would I? In right field on a steady basis. (I would like that outfield a whole lot, if anybody wants my opinion.) When Pedro Alvarez comes back to play 3rd base on a day to day basis, d'Arnaud. Should remain at shortstop. When Ronny Cedeno's he...

At the intersection of sports and real life . Sunday, March 31, 2013. Is Louisville's Take Down of Baylor the Biggest Upset Ever in Women's Hoops? Shoni Schimmel ain't skeered of Brittney Griner. Photo: Sue Ogrocki, AP. And I'm not talking about G'Town scheduling some mid-majors to pad the schedule; I'm talking about Georgetown smoking the big boys in the Big East. Yeah, they lost a couple of games mid-season, but they were rolling by the time the NCAA tournament came around. People didn't think. Then th...

At the intersection of sports and real life . Monday, December 26, 2011. Sunday Recipe: Christmas Ravioli Filled with Mushrooms. Yesterday, as always on Christmas Day, I made traditional ravioli. Well, they're a tradition in my family and growing up, I always felt sorry for kids who ate turkey on Christmas Day. How boring! Meanwhile, I made my traditional cheese filled ravs. In sum, if you're not a huge fan of ricotta cheese (really? For the mushroom filling, you will need:. 4-5 cups of cremini mushrooms.

Balls and Whistles: Gerrit Cole's Debut, New Security and Lively Bats at PNC Park
http://ballsandwhistles.blogspot.com/2013/06/gerrit-coles-debut-new-security-and.html
At the intersection of sports and real life . Wednesday, June 12, 2013. Gerrit Cole's Debut, New Security and Lively Bats at PNC Park. Renee Zellwegger once said, in her most annoying, treacly voice, "You had me at Hello." (Excuse me while I retch for a moment. Okay, I'm back.). Cole wasn't dominant through his first two innings, but he was good. Really good. PNC Park was buzzing and it was all due to this kid. The other great sign was that he didn't walk a single batter. View my complete profile. Galett...

At the intersection of sports and real life . Tuesday, April 9, 2013. David and Goliath, Elsewhere Known as UConn and Louisville: Women's Final Tips Tonight. Uh Oh Looks who is baaack:. And somehow, even when having lapses and lulls, the Cardinals have gone on this run, taking out Baylor. Tennessee and Cal. It is nothing short of miraculous. It's not always pretty but it is always, always fun. With Shoni Schimmel. But as fun and magical and incredible as this run has been, they can't be UConn, can they?
