A Covent Garden fruit warehouse transformed into high-end Carnivore Central, with awesome steaks (most affordable on the express menu) and a great cocktail bar.
This former fruit warehouse is now Carnivore Central in Will Beckett and Huw Gott's confidently expanding empire, and the bar a place of pilgrimage in its own right for cocktail geeks.
Winner of Time Out's Best New Restaurant award in 2011, the discreet-fronted basement location is elevated to a high-end destination with a characterful interior of reclaimed materials and the fan-boys' zeal for premium meats and other taste sensations. The bad news is, with a similar appreciation of gustatory pleasures (a couple of cocktails, say, followed by crab or lobster, sirloin and side dishes, wine and pudding), dinner here can easily set you back £100 a head.
The good news is the express menu (ideal pre-theatre when tables are easy to snare) proffers two courses for £25 and three courses for £28 – and still allows enjoyment of fine Ginger Pig Longhorn ribeye (a more-than-strictly-needed 250g), and bone marrow with onions. Desserts here, in our experience, don't benefit from the same obsessive attention to detail as the beef dripping chips, kimchi burger, hot dogs or historic anti-fogmatics – still, there's the post-prandial cocktail list to peruse featuring the likes of Climpson's espresso martini.

had 850gm ribeye with bone in,shared for 2 of us,without doubt best chunk of meat we have ever eaten !! service and atmosphere excellent, lovely place.
Hands down the best steak in town. And it's not just the food, everything about this place is classy - from the service to the decor to the cocktail menu.
We went on a Sunday after a recommendation and we're not disappointed. We took a long time trying to choose our meals but all changed our minds the instant we saw a roast being served on the table next to us. Very tasty we'll cooked beef with a generous veg portion and huge Yorkshire pudding. Very good waiter service reasonable prices for wine. Beware we got there just after twelve and the place was totally full when we left at two. Going back soon and looking forward to another great roast.
This restaurant never fails to deliver on the quality and taste. The Porterhouse is always perfect for sharing and the mac and cheese is a great side. The fact it's below ground level makes you feel like you're a world away from the hustle and bustle of Covent garden.
Best mac-n-cheese of my life....oh and the filet is not bad either :)
Best mac-n-cheese of my life....oh and the filet is not bad either :)
i have wet dreams about the ribs! i think I'm having one right now :-/
Absolutely faboulous tasty food and lovely drinks with good environment.
Hawksmoor never disappoints. The ribeye is always outstanding as is the creamed spinach. If you're after one of the best steaks in town then look no further.
Absolutely loved it in here. The food is amazing. It is quite expensive and the kind of place you end up getting at least starters/mains and several cocktails! But still so worth it. The service is impeccable and atmosphere is great on, what seems to be, any night of the week. Best steak in London!
Over rated. Great venue but have found the service inconsistent. I've sent a steak back because it was so salty it burnt to be told the chef disagreed and offered an unseasoned steak. I left.
One of the best stakes you can eat in London. There Porter House is amazing. Good friendly staff. There breakfast is also supperb but you will need all morning to get through it!
Food was excellent as expected but there wasn't a great atmosphere. Went at lunchtime so perhaps it's buzzier in the evening. Can definitely recommend the yorkshire pudding starter but you need a big appetite!
My Favorite Steak Restaurant at present - Portahouse to die for then washed down with infused butter Scotch old fashion does it get any better
The Steak is awesome - It's a toss up between here or Goodmans for best in London - Hawksmoor edges it for me. - service is always top notch, a great setting and it's easy to lose time in.Great buzz too.
Must try a shaky Pete's shandy and save room for the puddings which is difficult I admit!
Quite simply the best Sunday lunch in London. It may be pricier than your average roast in the local pub but the extra four or five quid is worth it. Generous portions, relaxed but attentive service make this a treat worth doing regularly.
Every time I go near Seven Dials, I crave the Full-Fat Old Fashioned (homemade butter infused bourbon), bone marrow and anchovy hollandaise
After reading so many glowing comments on Hawksmoor, perhaps I just got a one-off bad steak. I ordered a t-bone steak cooked medium, and it was bland and very dry - not at all the juicy, flavourful steak I was expecting. I also ordered two glasses of wine which were way too warm, probably poured into a hot glass right out of the dishwasher. I came away very disappointed, especially after paying premium prices (£60 for a salad, steak and two 175m glasses of warm, mediocre wine).
simply awesome
Great buzz, a gentrified rather than hip bare brick dungeon ...and excellent though unadventurous food I suppose. Felt a little too like a chain.. I mean very nice but ever so slightly bland. More Elton John than I had hoped.
Very blokey. Looking around it was definitely big blokes out-chomping each other through mountains of meat, even the female staff were glamorous Bond girl types, no short cropped lesies, yes very much a boy's place, so come on down lads.
Went on Sunday for lunch. Had the pork ribs for starters and a Sunday roast. Absolutely fantastic. Didn't even think about the bill. The service was helpful and friendly and I'll be back in a heartbeat. Best Sunday roast in London. A Bargain!
Epic Sunday roasts!
Best Sunday lunch ever, deserts fantastic and service was brilliant
Best steak in London... the UK probably. Side dishes are perfect complements and the wine selection is spot on. worth trying the cocktails before dinner as well!
The steak is excellent, though the sides are even better!
THE best Sunday lunch in London, and I don't even eat meat! http://www.myhiddengems.co.uk/2013/06/hawksmoor-london-best-sunday-lunch/
Ooooh, such a good food, Me LIke!!!!
Ooooh, such a good food, Me LIke!!!!
Out of curiosity I finally tried Hawksmoor last night at Seven Dials. To make it an affordable trip we opted for the set menu - 2 courses for £23, not too bad, especially after hearing such good things. However I have to say the steak and chips - which came out 2 minutes after ordering - was pretty bland. I covered everything in salt, ketchup and vinegar just to give it some flavour (not something I usually do in restaurants I'd like to add). It would be nice if a sauce was offered with the set menu as it needed the flavour and also the meat on the plate on it's own looked rather bare on it's own. All to quickly we were rushed for our dessert orders, so couldn't finish them. But I will say that the desserts are worth a trip alone (almost). The sticky orange pudding and berry panna cotta were to die for, so flavoursome but whilst being light and very moreish. If only the much raved about steaks had been as good.
Superb food from starters such as Roast Bone Marrow or Potted bacon and beef with Yorkshires ! The steaks are superb as are the Beef Dripping Chips. The desserts are fantastic and I really enjoyed the Cornflake Ice Cream. Wonderful Cocktails, Good Wine list and good selection of beers. This is the best meal we have had in London and the service was second to none !
I eat,regularly, out in London and am very passionate about cooking, and food in general. This place was incredibly disappointing. It is ridiculously priced. The steak was very poor. The service was non existent- pleasant enough but paying that sort of price, they should be more attentive. This was really disappointing, it strikes me as odd that not more people have mentioned this! the cocktails were nice before dinner.
I was very disappointed, having heard this was the best restaurant for steak in London. It doesn't have a patch on steaks in Paris and Argentina or even USA & Australia. My steak was cooked medium well instead of medium rare. Sent it back and the next steak was cooked properly, but not well seasoned - didn't have a delicious outer crust. The meat flavour wasn't amazing, texture could have been better. A great steak should make you say, "Oh my god - I can't believe how good this is". I ate 1/2 of this one mostly to be polite to my dining companion. Entrees were better; 1 very good, the other just good. Creamed spinach was excellent. Chips were over salted and a bit of a let down. Service was pretty rushed and lacking in passion until they'd studded up cooking the steak. All in all I'd save my pennies and head to Paris for dinner rather than going here. Having tasted 2 steaks here, my conclusion on the raves about this place is that the people haven't really tasted good steak - which is one of life's great pleasures.

Lebron would be the 4th option on the Knicks right now.
Lebron James has 11 offensive rebounds all year. 11 off. rebounds in 18 games. Danillo Gallinari has 21 offensive rebounds in 18 games. Landry Fields has 28 off. rebounds.
Amar'e has 40 off. rebounds (and he's averaging 8.6 total rebounds per game), while Bosh is averaging 7.3 total rebounds per game (and has only 25 off. rebounds in 18 games) .!.
I'm posting 2 great articles I read online today. All I can think about as I read these articles is that FINALLY.... once in the last decade.... I can be thankful for soemthing, when it comes to the NYK and having fortune smile upon this franchise.
THANK GOD we do not have to root for Lebron James! And another double-thanks that we don't have to root for Lebron James & Chris Bosh! Imagine that, and then having Maverick Carter? PLZ! I would prefer another 5 years enduring Eddy Curry injury news!
I'm loving Amar'e. Turiaf. Chandler and Gallo's growth. Felton (even though I got rough on him a while ago). And if we get Carmelo Anthony! YES!!!!!!!
It may have taken a decade.... But I think when we look back, we will pinpoint last summer.... when we were lucky enough to lose the LJ sweepstakes.... That will be the moment we highlight as the turning point, when everything started to go right for our beloved Knicks!

King James wants Spoelstra to bow to him
Erik Spoelstra reached out to Mike Brown over the summer and searched for insight into both basketballs blessing and curse: Coaching the two-time MVP [Only registered and activated users can see links. ].
Over and over, Brown uprooted his offensive system to appease James only to have it never work. Brown praised James character publicly when he wouldve preferred to have been truthful about James narcissism. James defied Brown in public and private, disregarded his play calls to freelance his offense, and belittled him without consequence within the [Only registered and activated users can see links. ].
Meticulous in his preparation, Spoelstra spoke with several past coaches, and league sources said a clear and unequivocal picture appeared on how to proceed: End the cycle of enabling with James and hold him accountable.
And surprise, surprise: LeBron James has responded with a test of his own organizational strength, pushing to see how far the Heat will bend to his will. This season, James is hearing a word seldom uttered to him in Cleveland:
No. And it keeps coming out of the coachs mouth, keeps getting between the King and what he wants.
Can I stay overnight to party in New Orleans after a preseason game?
Can I play the clown in practice?
Can I get out of playing point guard?
No. No. No.
Wait, what?
No, LeBron.
Even within a month of the seasons sideways 9-8 start, the NBA witnessed a predictable play out of the James-Maverick Carter playbook on Monday
morning. They [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] as jokers of the highest order. They care so little about anyone but themselves. Still, no ones surprised that theyd stoop so low, so fast into this supposed historic 73-victory season and NBA Finals sweep of the [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]. They want Spoelstra and Pat Riley to bend to them, to bow to the King the way everyone has before them.
Nevertheless, heres what was surprising even troubling when the Heat talked on Monday before a victory over the [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]: In the blink of an eye, [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] signed up with Team LeBron to scapegoat and sell out Spoelstra.
Im not going to say hes my guy, but hes my coach, Wade said.
Wades always been loyal, and thats why it was so surprising to witness him bail this fast on Spoelstra, whom Wade knows too well. Spoelstra is a good NBA coach. Everyone knows that Wade isnt a star who plays hard all the time, knows that he takes plays off on defense. They know that Spoelstra did a terrific job coaching 90 victories out of that flawed Miami roster the previous two seasons.
As much as ever, the Heat need Wade to influence James. Only now, its clear James is influencing Wade. With [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] out for the regular season, the locker room misses one of its vital voices. Now, Wade is struggling on the floor and James is the devil on his shoulder, whispering that he doesnt need to be accountable, that theres an easy fall guy for everyone: Spoelstra.
Those who know Wade well, who care about him, were disappointed Monday. When Spoelstra needed Wade to stand up for him, Wade never shrunk so small. Spoelstra was Wades guy, but Wades finding it much easier to align himself with James coward act than do the right thing. This was something that youd expect out of [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], whos never been a leader, never a winner, but Wade?
He knows better than this, one of Wades former assistant coaches said. Im not saying he hasnt changed some, but he knows right from wrong. And this is wrong.
The fundamental problem for Spoelstra isnt that James doesnt respect coaches he doesnt respect people. Give LeBron this, though: Hes learned to live one way with the television light on, and another with it off. He treats everyone like a servant, because thats what the system taught him as a teenage prodigy. To James, the coach isnt there to mold him into the team dynamic. Hes there to serve him.
Wade was one of the Team USA players whod watch incredulously as James would throw a bowl of fries back at a renowned chef and bark, Theyre cold! Or throw his sweaty practice jersey across the court and command a team administrator to go pick it up. Everyone wants James to grow out of it, but hes never showed much of an inclination for self-examination and improvement. And hes never surrounded himself with people whod push him to do so.
Whats more, the timing of this leak was no accident, because James and his business manager had to like the idea of someone else going on trial this week. When the public wanted to talk about James return to Cleveland, about the callous way with which he left, about the disjointed start in Miami, they thrust everything onto Spoelstra.
Part of them believed they could deflect Hell Week at home in Ohio, and part of them probably believed they could indeed align the public with them against Spoelstra.
After all, the coach had it coming to him. Of this, LeBron James was sure. Spoelstra had the audacity to do something that Mike Brown never had ownerships backing to do in Cleveland: To push James, call him out, coach him.
The funniest part had to be how they leaked the idea that Eric Spoelstra was panicking now, behaving like he feared for his job. Truth be told, hes been behaving in the opposite way. Spoelstra isnt running from LeBron, but running at him.
Someones scared here, but it isnt the coach.

You could be sure that it wouldn't take long for Maverick Carter unnamed sources to lash back in LeBron James' defense, especially in the wake of the team's disappointing start, and the goofball [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] controversy.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Carter the source had this to say about Heat coach Erik Spoelstra's relationship with the team:"He's jumping on them," one source said. "If anything, he's been too tough on them. Everybody knows LeBron is playful and likes to joke around, but Spoelstra told him in front of the whole team that he has to get more serious. The players couldn't believe it. They feel like Spoelstra's not letting them be themselves."Carter The source went on to point out that Spoelstra singled James out during a recent shootaround, telling the Heat star that he couldn't "tell when you're serious."
Now, all this is being tossed out there to make Spoelstra look bad, as he struggles to right Miami's ship, but all this nonsense is doing is making Spoelstra look better. Of course James doesn't take these things as seriously as he should, not when he's setting up parties and appearances in clubs following road games, or taking whole possessions off to float around the perimeter. This sort of criticism, something he never got in Cleveland, is exactly what he needs.
Spoelstra doesn't need help in looking bad. Though the Heat are ranked highly offensively on sheer one-on-one talent alone, Spoelstra is still the guy calling for simplified 1/5 screen-and-rolls -- sometimes two on the same play once the first option doesn't work -- late in close games, coming out of a timeout.
Spoelstra is the guy who was handed three of the best offensive players at their respective positions (statistically last season), and watched as each has regressed significantly within his obvious offensive schemes.
And Spoelstra looks even worse while trying to laugh off BumpGate as something typical, as he did Monday morning:Spoelstra said he "didn't even notice" the bump until it was mentioned after the game."Coming out of the timeout, it's a pinball game. I'm colliding into a lot of people. So it's probably a perfect case of overspeculation from this team," he said Monday."I was fine with that timeout. The fact that guys are not happy about the play, tempers rose, you could see the fire and passion in people's eyes. That's the way it should be," he added. "None of us should be happy about what was going on in the third quarter and taking it in stride."Come on, Erik.
It's fair to say that I've watched a lot of NBA basketball through the years, and have seen my fair share of angry teams skulking back to the bench after a timeout. I never -- NEVER -- see that sort of bump from a player to coach. Is it wrong to get up in arms about it? Sure. Let's not go crazy because a coddled, churlish athlete acted the part. But let's also not pretend that this is a typical or even infrequent occurrence.
Spoelstra is not doing his job when it comes to getting the most out of the players that he's been put in charge of. But he is right to call out Miami's Big Three, each of whom have been the biggest underachievers on this team. Not the point guards, not the big men, and not the coaching staff.
If LeBron doesn't have to dominate the ball offensively, then he needs to go nuts defensively and on the glass. If [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] isn't confident in his shot, or if he should be shooting a particular shot as opposed to James, then he needs to find a way to get to the line, as has long been his custom. And if [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] doesn't even sniff the ball during a play, then he needs to crash the offensive glass, and earn his team extra possessions. None of them are giving extra, when it's obvious that the team is at nearly .500 just because the Big Three are taking turns giving what they gave while all alone in Miami, Toronto and Cleveland. And winning basketball doesn't work this way.
So Maverick Carter Chris Broussard's sources can gripe all they want about Spoelstra taking his frustrations out on the superstars, but he's right to question their commitment. There's no reason James should have just two double-figure rebound games, so far. There's no reason Wade should be playing the sort of defense he's playing, and there's no reason Chris Bosh's rebound percentage should have dropped to a mark below the percent he came through with as a 19-year-old rookie.
Keep snivelin', sources. You're going to make a martyr out of Spoelstra yet.

Lebron would be the 4th option on the Knicks right now.
Metro called this way before anyone else...He alluded to the fact that we might be better off without lebron and that we should build a team that could take out Lebron and other EC powerhouses. Everyone was calling his idea silly, but Lebron has two other stars playing alongside him and the Heat are only 1 game ahead of us. Although that might not last, Miami is not a complete team. We're closer to being a complete team then the Heat are. In other words, we're the more balanced team. Its just that they have a great sg and sf but if we can make small improvements, and the Heat fail to make any improvements in the future, we'll be the better team. Fields is gettin better, Gallo is gettin better. Azuibuke is coming back soon, the only area where I would say we are weak is at the center position. Mozgov is very inconsistent at this point of his young career, Turiaf is injury prone.
Well, Miami is no better off then the Knicks after the summers free agency blockbuster signings. In fact looking at the record as it stands, plus the fact that New york has young talent, trade pieces and cap flexibility it's looking like we really did come out smelling like roses.
LeBron, Wade and Bosh will get better together, but it will take some time, it will require sacrafice and some realy smart coaching. I don't blame Spoelstra for going at Lebron, but it's clear that he is limited in his offensive scheme's and game plans. This trio would be doing much better if they had head coach Mike D'antoni working with them. He's the exact type of coach that Lebron needs. Someone as charasmatic and offensively minded as D'ant would really mesh well with these self-important bums and really give them a team concept they could buy into. No one is buying into Spoelstra's game plan and he is not getting anything out of these players. Not saying he is the only one to blame, just saying that with a better coach, that club could be doing much better.
LeBron proved the kind of man(-child) he was when he signed with miami in a public hour long "decision". While the man whom i suspect will subplant him as league MVP Kevin Durant quietly signed a huge extension with his small market OKC thunder. LeBron put off a spectacle that made him public enemy #1. Kobe Bryant now looks like a nice guy compared to James, that's incredible. I am glad that we don't have that huge target on our heads as every team circled their matches with Miami on this years calender.
James seems like more of a prick than I had I thought. Not toosurprising, but some of that stuff is just detestable if it's printed accurately.
James is also disliked by a lot of the media now, though. It's in vogue. And he is an open season target.
So I take a lot of the Lebron James hit pieces with a grain of salt.
It's bull**** too that he is just a singularly incredible player, too, who can't play with others.
He single handedly made the Cavs franchise the past 5+ years, made tons of his teammates relevant on the court, was a *natural* at having point-forward tendencies and being a big time distributor.
That Cavs team was a contender with legit championship hopes pretty much exclusively because of him.
His career has been legendary already, and his play last year (finals aside) was epic and not unfitting GOAT talk.
A selfish player or cancerous teammate doesn't have all the above ring remarkably true.
Reasonable to think we'd be the best team in the league right now if Lebron came, and absolutely stacked for the future. So I don't see it as some total coup that he didn't come...But maybe a blessing in true disguise. And I have no regret that he didn't. He just made a historically terrible decision.
From the outside he really is a prick and his Decision was remarkably pathetic. I want nothing more to see him fail, than for us to win.
We have the chance to build a championship team the next ~year, with the enormous pleasure and satisfaction of having done it the "underdog" way and be able to own LeBitch in the process.
*But we must seize the opportunity or we'll just be trying to nurse our wounds by taking pleasure in another man and team's fail*
It would have been much different for him if he came to NY, IMO. Articles like these wouldn't be happening, to say the least. Ever since Decision Debacle hes been in a uniquely bad, bad position.
I feel things will work itself out in MIA. However, that doesn't mean a title. I honestly feel the BOSH signing will hinder Wade/LJ shot at a championship, b/c that 100 million would be better spent adding a few role pieces that compliment those 2 dynamic wing players (Like Ariza, Felton, Chandler)...
You know... adding depth and al that is better b/c Bosh is not a max contract guy.
ALSO, MIA has no chance against the LAK this year, and not even against BOS if Celtics are healthy.
Most likely, MIA will be a 3,4,5 seed. WIn their first round and gain momentum. Probably even get to Conf finals.
But they better hope there's no lockout next year.
Otherwise, it'll be Sept. 2011 and all the pressure in the word will be on them to win. They'll probably crack under that pressure. And if they don't win by year 3? GULP!
There were some that agreed with him, but I think he was the first one to say that he didnt want Lebron. I was one of the first ones too, i never liked him to begin with. I've been anti-Lebron since long before it was cool to be, i got a few years under my belt now.
I believe you though, I know there were some supporters of Metro's theory and there were some posters that had similar ideas/thoughts before metro made that thread but the pro-Lebron crowd stood out the most, thats what most of the posters on here were part of. I remember some of these "fake" knicks fans having Lebron in a knicks uniform as there avatar I hope to see that thread get upped, im gonna look for it
Don't get me wrong, I would have supported LeBron in NY (I root for the laundry first and foremost)...but I look at a team like the Thunder built entirely through the draft. It takes a while, yes, and there's a little bit of luck (Portland not taking Durant and instead taking Oden) that changes the course of the team.
But I think this is the closest we can come. We are building a team who, every game, they get more comfortable with each other. STAT is a superstar, but he wants to lead, he relishes being in NY and wants to challenge his teammates to grow into a team unit. Within the first month Gallinari looks more like a member of the team than he did last year, constantly talking with STAT.
I remember when Ewing Jr. was trying to make the team he said when he got to the gym every morning, STAT was always there and had been there for a while before him. This is the SUPERSTAR working hard to set an example getting to the gym before ANYBODY. We are a team, a cohesive unit, more than we would have been had we landed the LeBron circus. The way Miami looks now, that is the EXACT reason I didn't want to send Gallo, AR, Chandler, Douglas and picks to the Nuggets just for Melo. We can be a cohesive unit, and THEN add Melo to the mix, another guy who would relish being in NY.
With LeBron we would have been good, no doubt. But this team, with a couple additions, can be great. This Knicks team + Melo > Heat. Easy.

And your on point about Melo too, it would be so much better if we can just sign him after this year then trade for him. Melo might not be as good of an athlete as lebron but imo hes a much better basketball player. Hes a better, more skilled scorer. Hes a great shooter, I've seen him play great defense too. He might not pass as well as lebron but thats what we got captain Riverside Ray for.
Never could like a guy with a tat a foot high emblazoned on his back that says "The Chosen One". Guy has been pampered and catered to since he was 13 so you can see why he is a spoiled b**ch.
as for lebron **** em he's a bitch wants everything his way and w.e if that was the case he shouldve chosen CLE they were the only team will to do anything to accommodate him, and he left that behind and now he has to adjust to a situation where he doesnt run stuff and its not "his way or the highway" and he cant handle that.
cant wait to knock em out of the playoffs in a battle of the 3-6 teams in the playoffs
DaTPRiNCE...That EGYPTiAN Fella, #MeloMafia
Of course I wanted Lebron, but I think I've said multiple times that the one thing that would be better than getting LeBron would be getting Carmelo and then fielding a team that would own LeBron and his bitch ass...of course, this was back when LeBron looked like he was on the way to Chicago...but it holds true now.
If there were ever a superstar who had too big of an ego to be tamed by even Pat Riley...it'd be LeBron.
Alright where to start here...
I agree like many of you that i watch Lebron wander through the wilderness while his conspired plot with Wade and Bosh blows up in his face. I love how stupid ESPN and hacks like Hollinger and Abbot who worship Lebron and the money he makes them look like when they proclaimed the Heat to be the New World Order of Basketball. I cheered hard for the Celtics a rivals of ours and my other team the Lakers to beat tens tons of crap out of this Mish-Mash of 2.5 Superstars and 12 bench warmers to send a message to the lousy heat bandwagon fans and the lousy city of Miami. I'm glad they are 9-8 and Spoelstra is on the hot seat.
Lebron, Wade, Bosh and Riley deserved this mess after rigging the whole summer freee agency and wasting everybody's time with their WWE style celebration...
And thats where I stop agreeing with most everybody on this thread. Just cause Lebron snubbed us and has said and done some stupid things, does not disqualify his talent or his proven track record of winning. Believe me when i say I am no Lebron Fan (Kobe will always be my favorite player and the Laker's my second favorite team after the Knicks,) but somebody has to keep it real here.
The heat are struggling, but it has more to do with the team dynamic then it has to do with the Lebron's struggles as a player. While many of you basketball heads already know this I'll lay it out anyways
1. Heat got no PG or C who can matchup with anyone on this league
2. Lebron and Wade make each other worse when they are on the court ala Steve Francis and Stephon Marbury, both need the ball to be effective.
3. Bosh is getting manhandled and has no help to get any rebounds.
4. Spoelstra's offense is questionable right now, and so is his ability to command respect from big ego players like the the big 3 he is after all a 3rd year coach.
5. Not to make excuses but they got key injuries to Mike Miller and Haslem, who serve as the Gallo and Turiaf of that team.
6. No Bench
Now imagine Lebron brings his talents to New York. Not only will the Knicks be better but I contend they would be perennial Eastern Conference Contenders battling with Orlando and Boston and heres why...

1. Pecking Order: Lebron's Team, Amar'e in a familiar Sidekick role
2. Pick N' Roll: Lebron and Amar'e would have been one of the scariest pick n' roll covers in history.
3. Complimentary Pieces: Lebron runs the show at point guard. Fields is one of the best off the ball shooting guards in the game and can slash. Gallo is the 3 point specialist and provides spacing. Amar'e provides a guy to dump it down to, or spot up giving Lebron space to get to the rim. Turiaf like Fields is another great off the ball player who does all the dirty work (sets screens, offensive rebounds and putbacks.) Wilson is the ultimate role player, provides the same versatility of a Lamar Odom possible sixth man of the year candidate.
4. Coaching: D'Anonti's resume (while disputed on here) is good enough and his offense mind lives for dynamic players like Lebron and Amar'e while D'Antoni would probably command more respect out of his star players then Coach Spoelstra.
5. Rebounding: This team is tall despite having a smaller center. Landry fields leads ALL GUARDS in rebounding and Turiaf could hold his own. We would be average but probably better then the heat.
6. Defense: Here we are not a whole lot better than the heat but that leads me to number 7.
7. Cap Flexibility: This team would need defense and rebounding, by freeing up Cap with Eddy's expiring contract we go out and find some depth on the interior to shore up our defense and rebounding.
So in closing ladies and gentlemen of this thread I give to you my argument for why you wouldn't be talking all this junk about Bron if he was on the Knicks leading them to a sixty win season and eventually a title in his second year.

Illinois state Sen. Kirk Dillard told Chicago radio station WLS last week that Republican county chairmen ought to try and get Bill Brady and/or Dan Rutherford out of the governor's race so he could have a clear shot at wealthy front-runner Bruce Rauner.
Dillard claims he is building strong momentum with recent endorsements, including the powerful Illinois Education Association.
Two polls taken last week, however, showed that Dillard isn't even winning his own DuPage County-based state Senate district that he has represented for more than 20 years.
A Capitol Fax/We Ask America poll taken Thursday had Rauner leading in Dillard's 24th state Senate district with 36 percent. Dillard placed a distant second with 30 percent. Brady polled 10 percent, and Rutherford was at 2 percent. Another 22 percent were undecided. The poll of 614 likely Republican voters had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.95 percent. Twelve percent of the calling universe was cellphones.
I didn't commission the poll to be a jerk, but because somebody slipped me results of a Strive Strategies tracking poll taken Feb. 18, which had Rauner at 33 percent and Dillard at 26 percent in Dillard's own district. The margins between the two men are almost exactly the same in both polls, so this is pretty solid evidence that Dillard is, indeed, losing his own Senate district, which he has represented since 1993.
What the heck is going on? Well, millions of dollars in campaign ads on Chicago TV by Rauner and pretty much nothing by Dillard is the simplest answer.
Rauner has not only dumped millions of his own money into his campaign, he has successfully vacuumed up pretty much all the available traditional Republican money out there. Campaign cash that Dillard, Brady or Rutherford would have normally been expected to tap has been Hoovered up by Rauner instead.
According to the Capitol Fax/We Ask America poll, Dillard is ahead of Rauner among women in his district 33-26, but he trails badly among men, 46-27. Rauner also leads among seniors 65 and over (perhaps the most important GOP demographic), 41-25.
Dillard said recently the multitude of DuPage County congressional, legislative and local Republican primary races, plus county auditor Bob Grogan's state treasurer bid, would gin up local turnout and help him defeat Rauner. But if he ain't winning his own district, it's tough to see how Dillard's theory will come to fruition in the rest of the county.
So, what about that IEA endorsement? Well, as of last week the teachers union had sent a mailer to its members touting Dillard and had given him $50,000 cash. Dillard has such a high overhead cost, though, that 50 grand won't do much except keep the lights on in his office. Dillard received about $250,000 from the Operating Engineers union late last year and then spent pretty much all of it on overhead.
And even if the IEA puts more cash into Dillard and it all goes on TV, Rauner is spending a fortune on TV ads and the latest We Ask America statewide tracking poll shows him leveling off, but still with a huge lead over the entire pack.
The poll of 1,323 likely Republican primary voters was taken Feb. 18 and shows Rauner with 35 percent to 14 percent for Bill Brady, 13 percent for Dillard and 8 percent for Rutherford – which is confirmation of the Chicago Tribune's recent poll results that showed Rutherford's numbers are collapsing in the wake of his ongoing scandal. Rutherford was at 17 percent in a We Ask America poll taken Feb. 3, which was nine points above where he is in the latest round.
The new TV ads being aimed at Rauner by the labor unions also are having an impact. The ads have whacked Rauner for associations with a corrupt bribery expert, and for alleged abuse at some nursing homes his company used to own.
The unions have spent about $2 million, and Rauner has seemed to plateau since those attack ads began airing. He was at 37 percent on Feb. 2 and 39 percent Feb. 13, then down four points less than a week later to 35.
But even if Rauner has peaked, the other three are a very long way from catching up, and so far none of them have the money to do so, and time is not on their side.

An earthquake with a magnitude of 6.9 struck near the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido on Saturday, the U.S. Geological Survey reported.
There were no early reports of casualties or damage. There was no tsunami warning following the quake.
The Japan Meteorological Agency reported the magnitude of the quake at 6.4.
Japanese media said police had received no reports of damage shortly after the quake. A nuclear power plant in northern Japan reported no problems after the quake, according to local Japanese media.
The epicenter of the quake was reportedly about 38 miles south east from the town of Obihiro.
The island is about 500 miles north of Tokyo.

My son is 6 months old and gets one meal a day, at supper. So far he has had avocado, oatmeal, pears, sw potatoes & peas! He was fine for a few weeks but now he is constipated. His poop was hard and pellet like. I stopped all food for a few days and he finally pooped out all the hard stuff and of course a flood of softer poop came after...tmi I know!!! Now is it normal for babies to get constipated when introducing solids? I'm going to only breastfeed for another day or so and then introduce again? Which food could be the issue?? I'm thinking the oatmeal cause he was fine when it was just avocado!
Also what consistency should his poop be when breastfed and on solids?

JFC Swing: The SpringLayout Classby Marc Loy, coauthor of Java Swing, 2nd Edition
With SDK 1.4, a new -- but not really new -- layout manager was added. The
SpringLayout manager uses the notion of springs and struts to keep everything in place. A version of
SpringLayout existed in the early alpha and betas of the Swing package, but it was not included because the Swing team felt it still needed too much work. While it still needs a bit of work, it has come a long way; its inclusion in SDK 1.4 is a testament to that progress. The class diagram for
SpringLayout and its helpers is shown in Figure 1.
Before you dive too deeply into this layout manager, you should know that its purpose in life is to aid GUI builders and other code-generating tools. It can certainly be hand-coded -- and we have the examples to prove it -- but you'll often leave this layout manager to the aforementioned tools. If you want a flexible replacement for the
GridBagLayout, you might want to take a look at the
RelativeLayout manager written by Jim Elliott. The complete package, with docs, tutorial, and source code, can be found on the Java Swing, 2nd Edition book Web page.
Figure 1. The SpringLayout manager classes.
Source Files
The source files for this article, FractionSpring.java and CompassButtons.java are available in this zip file.
Now that you're here for the long haul, let's look at the core of the
SpringLayout manager's approach to component layout: springs and struts.
SpringLayout at the helm, you use springs and struts to specify the bounds (x, y, width, height) of all of your components. (You could mimic the null layout manager by using only struts.)
The not-so-obvious big win in this layout manager is that springs can be anchored between the edges of components and will maintain their relationship even when the container is resized. This makes it possible to create layouts that would be difficult in other managers. While you could probably use a grand
GridBagLayout to do the trick,
SpringLayout should provide better performance once it's all fixed up and finalized.
Figure 2 shows a simple application that uses
SpringLayout. We position directional buttons over a large picture for navigation. Notice how the North button stays horizontally centered and anchored to the top edge of the application after we resize the frame. The other buttons behave similarly. Just to reiterate, you could certainly accomplish this with nested containers or a properly constructed
GridBagLayout; the
SpringLayout should simply prove to be the most maintainable over the long haul. We'll look at the source code for this example after we examine the API in more detail.
Figure 2. A SpringLayout managed container at two different sizes.
SpringLayout class thinks of components in terms of their edges. Several constants have been defined for the edges, as shown in Table 1.
Table 1. SpringLayout Constants.
|The top edge of the component. Corresponds to the y value of the component's bounding box.
|The bottom edge of the component. Corresponds to the y value of the bounding box plus the height of the component.
|The left edge of the component. Corresponds to the x value of the component's bounding box.
|The right edge of the component. Corresponds to the x value of the bounding box plus the width of the component.
The only constructor for
SpringLayout is the default constructor. Similar to the way one uses
GridBagLayout and
CardLayout, you'll want to keep a reference to your
SpringLayout manager handy.
Create a new
SpringLayout manager:
public SpringLayout()
As with other layout managers, a majority of the methods in
SpringLayout are devoted to meeting the contract of the
LayoutManager and
LayoutManager2 interfaces. The methods that make this manager interesting, however, are the methods dealing with components' constraints.
The following method returns the entire set of constraints (the springs on all four edges) for the given component. We discuss the
Constraints inner class in the next section.
public SpringLayout.Constraints getConstraints(Component c)
The following method returns a particular spring for the specified edge (
edgeName) of the given component (
public Spring getConstraint(String edgeName, Component c)
These methods place a constraint (spring) between two edges. The first method is just a convenience method that uses
pad to create a strut.
e1 and
c1 are associated with the dependent component, while
e2 and
c2 refer to the anchor.
public void putConstraint(String e1, Component c1, int pad, String e2, Component c2)
public void putConstraint(String e1, Component c1, Spring s, String e2, Component c2)
No method exists for setting all of the constraints at one time, but you can use the object returned by the
getConstraints() method to manipulate all of the edges on a component.
Here's the source code for the example application shown in Figure 2. Notice the three primary means of positioning components in a
SpringLayout. We add the North and South buttons to the container with prebuilt constraints. The East and West buttons are positioned by retrieving their existing constraints and setting up the bounding box for the component. For example, the North and East buttons are set up like this:
// Add north button
c.add(nb, new SpringLayout.Constraints(northX, offsetS, widthS, heightS));
// Add east button
As an example of the third mechanism for positioning components, the viewport for the graphics image is laid out using several
putConstraint() calls:
// The order here is important...need to have a valid width and height
// in place before binding the (x,y) location
sl.putConstraint(SpringLayout.SOUTH, viewport, Spring.minus(borderS),
SpringLayout.SOUTH, c);
sl.putConstraint(SpringLayout.EAST, viewport, Spring.minus(borderS),
SpringLayout.EAST, c);
sl.putConstraint(SpringLayout.NORTH, viewport, topBorder,
SpringLayout.NORTH, c);
sl.putConstraint(SpringLayout.WEST, viewport, leftBorder,
SpringLayout.WEST, c);
You might notice some funky springs in this example. We'll explain the centering spring and the
sum() and
minus() methods in the section on the
Spring class itself.
SpringLayout.Constraints embodies the spring constraints placed on a single component in a
SpringLayout-managed container. It holds the bounding box for a component, but it uses
Spring references rather than
ints for the
width, and
height properties.
Constraints inner class consists entirely of the properties shown in Table 2. With the exception of the
constraint property, these properties mimic the
Rectangle class often used to describe the bounds of components. The
constraint property is indexed by edge name (a
String). See Table 1, SpringLayout Constants, for a list of valid edge names and their respective relationships to the
x ,
y ,
width, and
height properties.
Table 2. SpringLayout.Constraints Properties.
|Data Type
|Default Value
i is indexed (by String values, see Table 1).
There are several constructors for building a
Constraints object. You might want to do this if you intend to build the constraints before adding the component to its container. (You can use the
Container.add(Component, Object) method to accomplish this.)
public SpringLayout.Constraints()
public SpringLayout.Constraints(Spring x, Spring y)
public SpringLayout.Constraints(Spring x, Spring y, Spring width, Spring height)
These constructors all build
Constraints objects. Any unspecified property is left as a null value. The first constructor creates a completely empty
Constraints object, while the second one leaves the
width and
height properties null.
So what are these
Spring objects we keep seeing everywhere? As stated earlier, they are essentially a collection of three values: a minimum, a maximum, and a preferred value. You could use a spring to describe the
height property of a text area, for example. Its minimum is 25 pixels; its maximum is the height of the screen (say, 1024), and its preferred height is 8 rows, or 200 pixels. By the same token, you can create a strut by specifying a spring with identical values for all three properties; for example, a text field with 25 for its minimum, maximum, and preferred heights.
Beyond the basic expandability of a spring, you can do some fun things with them. Springs can be manipulated using mathematical concepts (and achieve a semantically-correct result). For example, you can add two springs together. The new spring consists of the sum of the minimums, the sum of the preferred values, and the sum of the preferred maximums. You can also negate a spring and effectively multiply each of its values by -1. Summing with a negated spring, then, becomes a difference operation.
Now here's where things get really interesting. When you sum two springs, the result is not calculated immediately. The resulting spring stores a reference to the two operand springs. When needed, the summed spring queries its sub-springs. This has the practical upshot of making springs dynamic. If you change one spring in a sum, the sum changes, too. This turns out to be very useful in layout managers. Attach a spring to the bottom of the container, and it stretches whenever the container stretches.
Consider the
y property for the South button in the application shown in Figure 2. We can use subtraction to keep the button about 50 pixels above the bottom of the frame, even after the frame has been resized.
Spring offset = Spring.sum(buttonHeight, Spring.constant(50));
Spring southY = Spring.sum(bottom, Spring.minus(offset));
Figure 3 shows the details of each spring behind this button. (You can refer back to the code for the syntax on creating all of the springs you see in the diagram.)
Figure 3. Constructing the x, y, width, and height springs (and struts) for the South button.
Only one constant is defined for the
Spring class, as shown in Table 3.
Table 3. Spring Constants.
|An indicator that this property has not yet been calculated. (It's internal value is
Integer.MIN_VALUE.) Can be used as a notification to recalculate any cached values.
The properties for
Spring, shown in Table 4, are fairly straightforward. In addition to the minimum, maximum, and preferred properties, you can read and write the current value of the spring. Notice that the minimum, maximum, and preferred properties are read-only. You can extend Spring if you need to have a more dynamic spring.
Table 4. Spring Properties.
|Data Type
|Default Value
The default constructor for Spring is protected. It's obviously meant for subclasses. To create a spring, you use the factory-style
constant() methods.
The following method creates a strut. The minimum, preferred, and maximum properties are all set to
public static Spring constant(int pref)
The following method creates a spring. The minimum, preferred, and maximum properties are set from
pref, and
max, respectively.
public static Spring constant(int min, int pref, int max)
Three manipulations are defined for springs. Recall that the calculated values are not actually hard-coded into the resulting springs. References to
s1 and
s2 are stored, so that if either spring changes, the resulting springs also change. (This is done with the help of a private inner class extension of
Spring known as a "proxy spring.")
This method returns a new spring the properties of which represent the
Math.max() of the respective properties of
s1 and
s2. In other words, the minimum property of the new spring is the max of
s1.getMinimum() and
public static Spring max(Spring s1, Spring s2)
This method returns a new spring, the properties of which represent the negative of the respective properties of
s1. In other words, the minimum property of the new spring is
public static Spring minus(Spring s)
This method returns a new spring, the properties of which represent the sum of the respective properties of
s1 and
s2. In other words, the minimum property of the new spring is equal to
s1.getMinimum() + s2.getMinimum().
public static Spring sum(Spring s1, Spring s2)
As mentioned earlier, you can combine the manipulation methods to create other operations. In particular,
Spring.sum(s1, Spring.minus(s2)) returns the difference of the respective properties in
s1 and
s2. The
Math.min() function can be mimicked using
Spring.minus(Spring.max(Spring.minus(s1), Spring.minus(s2))). Try it on paper -- it really works!
The combination of
Spring math operations and constraints can make certain layouts easy to create (and easy to manipulate). That's "easy" in the "if you're designing a GUI builder" sense, of course. Figure 4 shows four buttons laid out in a vertical row with various
Spring constraints holding them in place.
Figure 4. Vertically stacked buttons in a SpringLayout.
To show off more of the
Spring constraint combinations, we varied the layout code for these buttons:
// We'll leave all buttons at their preferred widths and heights
// b1 gets placed at (10,10)
// b2 gets placed at (10, offset + b1.height + offset)
sl.getConstraints(b1).getHeight()), offsetS));
// b3 gets placed at (10, b2.south + offset)
sl.getConstraint(SpringLayout.SOUTH, b2)));
// b4 gets placed at (b3.west, b3.south + offset)
sl.putConstraint(SpringLayout.WEST, b4, 0, SpringLayout.WEST, b3);
sl.putConstraint(SpringLayout.NORTH, b4, offsetS, SpringLayout.SOUTH, b3);
You could use any one of the techniques shown on all of the buttons, if you were so inclined. That said, there are a few consequences to the constraints we created in this example. For example, look at the
y constraint of
b2. It is simply the sum of two offsets and the height of
b1. It is not dependent on the bottom edge of
b1. It doesn't care where
b1 is placed. The
y constraints of
b3 and
b4, however, are dependent. If
b2 moves down, so does
b3 -- and if
b3 moves down, so does
One other fun constraint in this example is the left edge of
b4. We tied it to the left edge of
b3. If you change the
x constraint of
b4 follows.

There are some things that cannot be duplicated using
minus(), and
max(). For those things, you can simply extend the
Spring class. The compass navigation example in Figure 2 keeps the North and South buttons horizontally centered. (Of course, the East and West buttons are vertically centered.) To keep the buttons centered, even after the user resizes the frame, we need a new spring that returns the center of a parent spring. That can be built as we do in the
FractionSpring class.
If you look a bit closer, this class can actually handle any multiplier value. The factory method
half() produces the spring we need most often, but you can use the public constructor to supply an alternative. You could certainly write other factory methods for common values you find useful. Maybe a
goldenMean() method is in your future?
One method you want to pay attention to is
setValue(). In several derived springs (like our
FractionSpring), the
setValue() call does not make sense. Normally, we throw an
UnsupportedOperationException to indicate that this required method from our abstract parent does not really apply; however, the special value
UNSET can be used to help in a particular scenario: value caching.
If the current value of the spring comes from an expensive operation, you can cache that value. If your spring is bound to another spring, such as the border of your container, changing the size of the container causes a chain of
UNSET values to be passed to dependent springs. You could watch for
UNSET and recalculate your spring values only when you receive it. (Try uncommenting the
println() in our
setValue() method and rerun the example. You should see four
UNSET calls each time you resize the frame -- one for each button.)
While it may take a few tries to get your brain around
SpringLayout and spring math, you can accomplish some complex layouts with one container and a single, efficient layout manager.

Ronald Reagan
Dear Editor,
Ronald Reagan once said, "the most terrifying words in the English Language are, I'm from the government, and I'm here to help". When Reagan was elected Carter was President, but he appeared helpless or maybe even cursed; the Iranian Revolution and storming of the U.S. Embassy, the hostage crisis, the failed attempt to rescue them, the OPEC oil embargo. America seemed battered and on her knees. Reagan was charged with playing the role of Hollywood President. He talked tough and exuded confidence, but took his orders from the head of Merrill Lynch.
It is important to distinguish the differences between history and mythology. Reagan is hailed by the modern conservative movement for shrinking government, cutting taxes, defeating communism and restoring America to greatness. In reality he did none of this things.
The most significant blow Reagan dealt to America was the quote above, and the shift that it represented. Reagan taught us to hate government, to believe that government was the source of all our problems, that government couldn't get anything right and that anything government did was doomed to fail. If all of this seems obvious, you're either unaware or have forgotten America's past and deny what it was that made America special in the first place.
Our government was an experiment to see if there could truly exist a government that Abraham Lincoln described as being, "of the people, by the people, for the people". A government that would serve the will and interests of the governed, and would reject the European model of aristocratic plutocracies that our founding fathers fought to overthrow. All of the major powers in the world were ruled by Kings and Queens claiming legitimacy in the name of God. They were also in the pockets of bankers and corporations. The Boston Tea Party was the first anti-corporate protest in American history. It was against this backdrop that America was born, a country whose government derived it's power from the consent of the governed, and not from the divine right of a leader who claimed to serve as God's living emissary on earth. This was a radical, liberal idea in the 1770's.
For most of American history, this was the framework in which we saw our government; flawed, imperfect, but ours. It was this that enabled the U.S. Government to accomplish an impressive string of achievements in a relatively short period of time, and it's this legacy that modern conservatives and all who buy into their misguided "government is the problem" rhetoric deny and rebuke with their an-historic views.
To those who say "the government can't get anything right" or is "the problem, not the solution", I would like to point out an inconvenient truth: almost every great achievement in American history was accomplished by our government. This isn't opinion it is fact. The "free market" has provided us with junk foreign made novelties and trinkets, but very few noteworthy accomplishments.
Without the direct and active involvement of our government, America as we know it would not exist. To give just a small example of American governments accomplishments (which would never have been accomplished by a purely free market system, absent government assistance). The Hoover Dam, The Louisiana Purchase, Lewis and Clark Expedition, Panama Canal, National Power Grid, Federal Highway System, Apollo Space Program, G.P.S. Satellites, Hubble telescope, G.I. Bill, the internet, personal computers, satellite imagery, jet engines. This list is in no particular order and is by no means complete, but represents a tiny fraction of achievements accomplished or made possible by our government. To say that the government does nothing right is either mendacity or ignorance.
And yet Reagan painted government as the problem, rejecting and overturning it's historical role as a partner to and servant of the people. Reagan cast government as a giant bureaucracy, ominous and malevolent, an enemy of the people. Reagan managed to take a series of governmental nuisances, conflate them with current events such as the gas and hostage crisis, and then use the disastrous Operation Eagle Claw to paint a picture of bloated government incompetence – at a time when the public was gullible and desperate enough to buy this act. Either Reagan or his puppeteer Donald Regan should have won an Oscar.
Prior to Reagan "good government" was not only seen as possible, but desirable. The role of good government as envisioned by our founding fathers, was to provide a cohesive suite of services to the people, all for the common good. These included but were never limited to, a system of roads, a postal system, the formation and maintenance of a Navy, a system of laws, to promote the general welfare and maintain the peace. For the better part of 200 years, the U.S. Government stood as a beacon of good governance, and oversaw our rise among nations to a position of leadership – economic, military, social and moral. Political corruption existed and bubbled up from time to time, but always ended in a thorough and public examination, followed by corrective laws to prevent recurrence; we learned from our mistakes. Those days are gone. They ended during the Reagan Administration. Today's confused conservative movement falsely claims that they want to "restore" an America that never existed in the first place.

Philadelphia Phillies (9-14) at New York Mets (10-10)
Kyle Kendrick (1-1, 3.28) vs. Dillon Gee (1-3, 5.95)
TIME: 7:05, Citi Field
Weather: 60's, partly cloudy
Media: Twitter and Facebook
The Phillies are coming off a disappointing series against the Pirates where they won a game started by Jonathan Pettibone, but lost the three started by Cole Hamels, Roy Halladay, and Cliff Lee.
Tonight, they will send Kyle Kendrick to the mound, and he's had a surprisingly good year (for Kyle Kendrick standards). He has been the Phils second best started behind Cliff Lee, and, if you watch him pitch, you can just feel his confidence on the mound. And he's not just getting lucky, either. He's making good pitches in tight spots and not backing down.
For the Mets, Dillon Gee will get the start, and he has an ERA up near six, in part because a terrible start against the Phils on April 9. He gave up seven runs in three innings that night, and gave up more hits (10) than outs (9).
However, he's coming off a solid start against the Nationals where he did not surrender a single run (and only three hits) in five and two-thirds innings. Still, he has not had much success against the Phillies in his career.
The key for this Phillies offense is patience. As Corey Seidman points out, the Mets are a much more patient team. That is certainly a contributing factor to the difference in records between the two teams. For the Phillies offense to get it going against Gee, they need to work the count and force him into a high pitch count.
Tonight's lineup is missing the slumping Ben Revere for the second straight game. John Mayberry Jr will play CF with Laynce Nix in right.
Lineup: Rollins SS, Utley 2B, Young 3B, Howard 1B, Brown LF, Mayberry CF, Nix RF, Kratz C, Kendrick P
Your gameday beer: Brooklyn Pennant Ale '55
A baseball-themed beer? Yes, please. Brooklyn Pennant Ale is a honey-colored pale ale, right up my alley. It's aptly named for the 1955 Brooklyn Dodgers World Championship team, a very cool homage to a city that lost its team to the west coast unfortunately. It's 5.0% ABV, so not too strong, not too light. It should be paired with some BBQ ribs or a plate of crabcakes. Oh yeah. Whether or not you despise New York, Brooklyn Brewing Co. makes a damn good beer. –By Pat
Go Phillies!

True or False…our OF is the worst in all of baseball? It's laughably worse than the Nats and Atl.
Lets take 2/3 here. KK wins and Cole finally wins on Sunday. Doesn't Cole usually pitch bad vs the mets tho (at mets stadium).
Another must win game.
I am too focused on how utterly over rated the infield is to even notice the outfield.
Howard does have good career numbers on Gee.
The games vs the mets are always big in my Mets Phillies better record bet.
Go phils!
Overall, game for game, the best double play combo in baseball last year. You must be talking about Young and Howard.
I forgot the over under of Rollins making outs on the bases.
It was going to be 1 but since hes already been picked off Ill make it 2.
Considering how he really isnt on base nearly as any decent lead off hitter. It is a shame he makes all these outs on the bases.
I guess Charlie is going to show us by hitting him 1 and Howard 4 till the end of time. Or at least until he isnt managing anymore.
More than any other player Rollins would have been addition through subtraction by simply just letting him sign with another team last year.
If he even had any other suitors.
But here Ruben and the fans got thier way.
Here he is an all time great phillie and a Hall of famer.
If I never saw him suit up for the Phillies again Id be pleased.
Can be Galvis or any other major league SS in there.
Linemaker, linemaker, make me a line…
The O/U on Games won this series by the Phis is 1.5.
I'll take the under. Doesn't leave you much, does it?
@ Ken its bad enough watching a dreadfully horrible team.
But then your veteran guys cant even run the bases LOL
I have to say it amazes me that people love some of the older players.
In my real life people I talk to these players are not very beloved.
Howard has 3 walks this year.
Jimmy has 3 outs on the baes in the last 3 games.
This is the best in the league?
People believe that?
Like its 2008 ??????????
Im sorry I cant understand how anyone could watch every phillies game the last 3 years and be in love with these guys.
But more power to you and enjoy it. I mean no disrespect to you liking it.
Ill just sit back and laugh for this year like last.
Every once in a while when it gets ridiculous like no walks 4 straight games or Rollins not running the bases on a little league level Ill maybe accidently rant.
Carry on
With the best damn infield of all time.
Pound for pound
Stat for stat
This what we need to do. We need to start rooting for Jimmy not to get on so as to eliminate this massive baserunning problem.
Perhaps you can praise him then for the improved running game. I know that with that positive mentality you have, that will make you a happy Phillies investor.
Ma and Pa Nix are in heaven tonight. Both Jayson and Layne are in the starting lineups. Wonder why both parents spelled both kiddos names with y's. Strange parents. Lifelong spelling bee.
This is big news. Probably the biggest since the Hanrattys coached against each other in Da Bowl.
Ken Y Baseball
I do have a positive attitude.
This series just watch how these scrubby Mets players work counts and have a hitting approach.
How can your clean up hitter have 3 walks on april 26th?
My Jimmy on the base path rant is over now.
Lets enjoy the game.
Maybe Uncle Charlie will hit Ruiz 1 when he comes back.
How can your clean up hitter have 3 walks on april 26th?"
It's not that hard. Usually cleanup hitters bat 4 times a game, and pitchers can easily try to work around them. Especially the big threat types. No names, no need.
I was enjoying the Jimmy Basepaths rant. I'm sorry I teased you about it and you plan to stop. I guess I'll root for him to get a hoit since you said you're gonna stop.
8 in a row for KK
I can smell a win when the Phils vaunted offense starts getting in gear here.
I think I can I think I can I think I can.
A phillies win only puts me 3 back of the mets in my bet.
If the Mets hadnt dealt Dickey that bet would be done.
At least Papelbon has to be pleased with the leadership on the ball club this year.
I guess.
Hard to get alot of saves on teams that lose 100 games though.
Crazy Eddie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
His prices are insane.
So ken you mean mostly other teams pitch around clean up hitters.
But in some cases teams pitch around the 2 and 3 hitters to get to the clean up hitter.
Interesting theory.
Jimmy Popup was so 2010 or 2011
new nick name
Jimmy Basepaths
You are a way better sidekick than Lefty ever was.
I seriously really do like that Jimmy Basepaths monicker. That is keeper stuff.
Crazy Eddie was closed on Sundays in Paramus. Recognizing that character is worth an extra beer at the parade. Wonder what city we'll be visiting.
Tell ya what. With Bennie not in the lineup, we could see baseball history tonight.
Worst pinch hitter in history since The Mart that's known as Nini.
That'd fire em up in Brooklyn Heights. Bennie V Da Mets pen. Compelling television all across the New York Mets televeison network.
Kendrick is getting on my nerves. So may times of late, he throws a game that makes us reevaluate if it's the best game of his career.
Who needs the strenuous mental labor? Helluva start at least.
My WS prediction is Phillies vs Red Sox
Kendrick V Buchholz in 1,4 and 7 in the Throwback Series.
Lukas "Zippity" Dooduh has 18 walks this year
Ryan "the big contract" Howard has 3
The funniest part is the Phillies have played 3 more games too.
That's not really funny, Andrew. You need a sense of humor. That's actually sad.
Sarge Obvious
With The Mighty KK at the plate, this should be an RISP at bat, even with Eric Basebaths the runner
Is Buck on what Ruiz was last year?
Or is he just eating his wheaties?
Andrew intimidates Jimmy Basebaths to hold at first. Wisely.
Solid ballgame tonight. Another Phils game where you take the little lady out for dinner, get to the park T6, and she says, "See, honey, we didn'tmiss a thing." Sometimes the female perspective on The Great Game is a fascinating thing.
Not the case tonight, though. The feeling here is the Phils score 2 this inning.
Shake it up time.
Ut oh
Jimmy Basepaths with the LONG single.
Jimmy Basepaths on the fly. Yahoo!
First to third on the single for Jimmy Basepaths
can they not score here?
youd like that rant ken if they dont
Piece. Love this situation, this matchup, this time.
michael young with the hit!
2 on and Howard up
lets blow this open!
Jimmy ran the basepaths perfectly socring from first on 2 hits.
It takes 3 hits to score Howard from first.
Piece, baby. Piece.
Phillies baseball.
that will help the fantasy squad quite a bit!
For what woulda been 160 thou to get that Yale education if he didn't have no scholarship, Darling Ron was yakking about Piece's double play propensity with his legs before he smashed one deep into the NY, NY night.
That was as golden as any record they ever played at WCBS FM.
Now, can Kendrick go Halladay, and get even better as the game goes.
Howard does love him some Dillon Gee don't he?
I got your sidekick right down here.
A win is a win and I am happy if its a win.
Now we fear the bull pen.
I loved Darling in Shallow Hal
My problem with the Phils, and this is nominally contestable, I suppose is I just don't see where this club can put together a strek, or run. Like 12 out of 15. They just doin't have that feel to 'em. Like Crew, won 8 straight after a 2-8 start or something.
That's what I'd love to see. Such Jekyll and Hyde.
Course last year, the Hall of Famer Marty Brenneman said the Red couldn't win 10 straight, and it cost him every hair on his head.
Ya never know, I guess. Does kinda feel like RyHo's hitting the groove zone with a couple dingers of late. That was 1 nice rip.
Young loves Gee too
Thanks for the support.
We are all athletic supporters though.
Take over on the favorite Phil article tomorrow.
KK ERA at 2.64.
And scratch that early season nonsense.
Check out te other starter's ERAs.
I guess saying you're familia with Fmilia is like "These Eyes" or Share the Land coming on the radio, nd saying, Guess Who's on the radio?
Tip of the hat to Randy Cummings for good music.
Jimmy Basepaths up with a RISP
I believe
6 and a half along, and we go to commercial on the Phils baseball network
The Campptown ladies sing this song,
Doo-da, Doo-da
The Camptown racetrack's five miles long
Oh, de doo-da day
Goin' to run all night
Goin' to run all day
I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag
Somebody bet on the gray
Oh, the long tailed filly and the big black horse,
Doo-da, doo-da
Come to a mud hole and they all cut across,
Oh, de doo-da day
Goin' to run all night
Goin' to run all day
I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag
Somebody bet on the gray
I went down there with my hat caved in,
Doo-da, doo-da
I came back home with a pocket full of tin
Oh, de doo-da day
Goin' to run all night
Goin' to run all day
I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag
Somebody bet on the gray
Is this Hullabaloo?
This is a poorly timed statement, but in following KK's economic development since he signed for 2 years, he's up for arb this year. You know Rube don't do arb. And you know Rube gives out bucks pretty easily.
This a long assed season, but KK might be sniffing the finish line to a wil ride to riches. 2 years at 8 mil? Hell, Blanton pitched well in spots, but KK's pitching better than Joe did a lot of the time.
A little overrective to tonight's wffort (so far), but it's not his first good start.
Is not the kind of name Rube over pays for.
KK will be gone.
Rube likes to spend on names to get the locals happy.
and keep them happy.
Fantasy ups and downs, RyHo, down, Beltran number 5, solo shot.
He might be gone, Biddle, Morgan, that sort of thing. But I don't know that it's a lock. His leaving has been a lock a couple times. He's a survivor.
Yes I am having a good night.
Fantasy wise.
And hoping the phils can hang on here.
Im sitting Howard sunday vs the lefty though.
will the old man?
"Yes I am having a good night.
Fantasy wise. "
Careful, Andrew. This is a G rated family site. I'm sure there's a place somewhere on the internet to reveal your fantasies in appreciative company.
Good RyHo story if I don't screw it up and make it sound like ya hadda be there.
Couple years ago, he was in Slump City, and everyone's bitching about his making a conscious effort not to strike out, but he wasn't hitting for power.
Thinking that message boards are shared thinking with the team on the field (cough break), this one person, the biggest RyHo kiss ass since Ma and Pa Howard quipped, "Howard needs to concentrate on striking out 200 times." Accurate quote, and a true story.
Speaking of 1B types, I shoulda had Albert on ny favorite non Phils players. I've read the word decline in sintences with his name for 4 years now. Hell, I'd love to decline from his digits. Even last year wound up pretty, maybe even very good. 3 rips in a WS game. Memorable, and only half as memorable as the time Reggie cranked out 3.
Same fan, after KK's gem V The Cards last year offered a post game comment that they should trade Kendrick now, his value would never be higher.
Some peeps just can't say nothing positive about nobody no time.
Man, Kendrick deserves some extra plaudits lately, and especially tonight – very efficient and strong outing. Mike Young restarting his hittin streak anew (3-4) and Howard with a bomb. Go Phils! I hope the old man lets KK finish the game, he deserves it.
No question, KK deserves it, but sign of trouble, that's past history. He deserves it up through his last pitch, which you're only as good as.
Just win the game.
I think Avitar City has a pic of the old man on schedule for tomorrow.
That be okay with you?
Maybe we should keep Jimmy another day. Keep him on probation maybe?
I get Petitbone confused with Paplebomb.
Help me tomorrow
I wish J. Basepaths would be traded.
I am a realist though so I will be hoping he does well tomorrow.
As I root for this team.
Winner winner
Chicken dinner!
My opinion on Jimmy Basepaths wont change tomorrow.
Its built up for a long time.
So if he hits 4 homers Ill till feel the same.
But I will be happy if it helps them win.

Animal Planet's 'Finding Bigfoot' show features VermontBy Courtney Parker
Correspondent | November 16,2012
Provided photo Cast members of the show, "Findign Bigfoot" are shown in this image from Animal Planet.The infamous legend of Bigfoot has left people puzzled for years as they ponder the validity or myth surrounding the creature.
Now, Rutland, along with the state of Vermont, is getting in on the action as Animal Planet showcases peculiar findings possibly linking Bigfoot to the Vermont area in one of its ''Finding Bigfoot'' segments.
The Sasquatch hunting team hit Vermont in early April to begin its investigation, holding a town hall meeting allowing locals to share their Bigfoot encounter stories.
Among the group was Rutland's Jules Peteani who went with his family to meet the crew and listen to locals relay their personal experiences.
"I find it very interesting," he said, speaking of the myth.
Peteani believes the Vermont region would make for a desirable habitat if the creature did exist and even admitted that he and his family took to the woods for their own squatch search.
"We had a lot of fun."
The Vermont segment will be featured in this Sunday's episode titled "Mother Bigfoot" as part of the second season ''Finding Bigfoot'' series.
"Finding Bigfoot," which has been on the air since May 2011, consists of four researchers who travel around the globe in search of the infamous Sasquatch.
The crew journeys to various points based on reported eyewitnesses and collective evidence to launch their own investigations, all in hopes of catching a glimpse of Bigfoot.
This fall's season kicked off Nov. 11 and is scheduled to run regularly on Sunday nights.
"Central Vermont is 'squatchy' as our team would say, meaning it provides the appropriate habitat, wildlife, and natural conditions that they typically find bigfoot sightings," said the show's post-production producer Alison Caraotta, explaining why Vermont was highlighted as a hot spot for possible squatch activity.
This Sunday's episode, beginning at 10 p.m., highlights the team's venture through Vermont and the special investigation of a local man's photograph of what may be a Sasquatch carrying her baby.
Locals can judge for themselves based on the team's in-depth analysis of the picture during the show, as well as the rest of their findings from the Vermont forests.
As far as Peteani is concerned, the legend of Bigfoot will continue to live on, allowing people to judge for themselves whether they choose to believe or not.
He and his family plan to watch Sunday's show in hopes of finding more clarification on the subject.
"I don't not believe," said Peteani, joking about the myth of the Sasquatch.

BLM Issues Decision Record for Kiewit Mine Project
Salt Lake City, Utah—The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Utah Salt Lake Field Office released a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) and signed the Decision Record (DR) approving the Kiewit Mine Project in southwestern Tooele County, Utah.
After completing an environmental assessment (EA), the BLM has decided to authorize approximately 43 acres of Federal land surface disturbance associated with the gold mining project located four miles southeast of Gold Hill, Utah. The EA analyzed the potential environmental impacts related to the proposed open pit mine and waste rock disposal facility on public land, as well as cyanide heap leach processing facilities on adjacent patented land. The combined total project disturbance on Federal, State, and private land is 105 acres.
The EA, FONSI, and DR can be viewed online at the BLM's Environmental Notification Bulletin Board (ENBB):
