Lakers Triangle Offense and Options
via X’s & O’s of Basketball by noreply@blogger.com (bruchu) on May 15, 2008
It's why we love this game. The Jazz and Lakers played a fantastic game tonight. It was an epic battle with the Lakers always staying just barely ahead of the Jazz and still the Jazz kept battling. I wrote earlier that this series would be one about possessions and in the past few games we've seen that take place, where every possession becomes so important.I remember from the Game 4 OT...

Gold Bond Aims for the Nuts
via Slog by DAVID SCHMADER on May 14, 2008
It's an open secret: a quick dusting of Gold Bond Medicated Powder can keep a fellow's junk feeling fresh as a tingly daisy. Now, Gold Bond ad execs are explicitly targeting the man's-junk market, via the sassy, double entendre-laden website/ad campaign PowderMyEquipment.com.(Thanks for the heads-up, Gawker.)

Handle a Traffic Stop and Avoid Your Ticket [How To]
via Lifehacker by Adam Pash on May 12, 2008
Car and Driver magazine knows a thing or two about getting pulled over, so they asked seven state troopers from across the country what they want and don't want from you, the driver, during a routine traffic stop. For example, rather than preparing your license, registration, and insurance information before the officer asks for it, "most cops don't want you to do anything except rest...

Wallingford Farmers Market Opens Today!
via Seattle Metblogs by Patricia Eddy on May 14, 2008
I love farmers market season! Finally, there’s a weekday farmers market open! The Wallingford Farmers Market opens today!From their website, it appears that they are really planning to expand the market this year. I always found it a very pleasant market, a little more laid back than the busy weekend markets like Ballard and the University District. Though the vendor list was definitely shorter...

Pitcher Analysis: Cliff Lee
via Driveline Mechanics by Kyle on May 14, 2008
... isn’t it?Of course, when you’re posting numbers that would make former Indians’ hurler Cy Young blush, people tend to notice. Cliff Lee’s stats currently look something like this: 53.2 IP, 0.67 ERA, 4 BB, 44 K, 1 HR. Yes, you read that right - a 11:1 k/bb ratio and allowing only one home run (which, need I remind you, barely got out of Progressive Field courtesy of Wladamir Balentin). L...

Pitching Mechanics Redux: Joba Chamberlain
via Driveline Mechanics by Kyle on May 14, 2008
(source: pitchingclips.com)I said in a previous article that I don’t like Joba’s mechanics, but after reviewing them again, I’m not so sure. Readers and analysts alike have said that he doesn’t form the Inverted W and/or Inverted L, and I think I’m inclined to agree after looking at it again. His level of horizontal shoulder abduction (scap loading) is so great that I think it confused...

Japan’s Vegesh, an Unlikely Combination of Vegetable Juice and Booze
via The UberReview by C. S. Magor on May 14, 2008
Vegesh is an alcohol and vegetable juice combination brought to us by the folks at Asahi, who are justifiably famous for their beer. Simply reading the combination of ingredients is likely to act as an emetic in some readers, you have been warned. It contains the following fruits and vegetables, which might be delicious in their own right, but together, well you tell me:CarrotAsparagusRed...

Make This at Home: Pulled Pork BBQ
via The Kitchn by elizabeth p on April 28, 2008
We were in Memphis this past weekend (it's one of our hometowns) and, as is our custom in Memphis, ate more than one plate of barbecue. This one's from the Germantown Commissary. While we can't get the same smoky flavor of pork that has been cooked over wood for hours and hours in our own kitchen, we can get tender, fall-apart chunks of meat that come close enough to soothe...
