Eloy Vargas was recently listed by HoopsWorld.com as one of the “Seniors under the radar” heading into June’s NBA Draft. Vargas, who struggled to find playing time behind Terrence Jones and Anthony Davis, hopes to showcase his talent for teams and show that he belongs on an NBA roster.

In what may be the most impressive turnaround for any player in his senior season, Matt Roark has gone from the starting receiver who couldn’t seem to catch anything thrown his way to a signed NFL free agent. The Patriots officially announced the signings of seven undrafted free agents and Matt Roark was on the [...]

Jerry Tipton may think Ryan Harrow needs a huskier tone, but one thing he doesn’t need is the ability to jump. Harrow absolutely PUNISHES the rim on these dunks, giving us a reason to get very excited about 2012-2013

David Yeiser is the designer I’m working with on Menu and Hours so you know I’m a fan of his work. That being said I honestly and sincerely think his latest project, the iPhone game Borderlines, is outstanding. It’s a game that tests your world geography knowledge by showing you outlines of countries. You choose [...]

I really like “Awkward x 2″ as the name for a pair of collaborative artists. Beyond having a cool name it sounds like they create really interesting work. I particularly am intrigued by their use of technology as the jumping off point for paintings. Sounds very interesting. I’ll have to check it out soon. The [...]

It is with great joy that I tell you Fairdale Bigfoot’s advice column is returning to Consuming Louisville. Hark humans of Louisville. Derby is over and Fairdale Bigfoot has been jostled out of hibernation by the smell of whiskey-soaked mint sprigs and the sound of a thousand dry cleaners being asked if they can wash [...]

Looks like downtown is getting another option for excellent coffee as Sunergos prepares to open a new location, its third, on 5th Street. The sign was hung this afternoon and the Sunergos folks shared some photos on their Facebook page: No word yet on when the official opening date is.

Though I used to be close-but-not-quite-fluent I have lost so much of my Spanish the best I can do now is order well at Mexican and Cuban restaurants. So I would do well to attend this 3 week long series that combines the deliciousness of the Mayan Cafe with the language teaching expertise of Los [...]

Happy Derby season! Once again one of the very few Derby events that I’ll tell you about (because I’m sure you already know about all the other ones) is the Unstable Clown Party on Oaks night. I just love the idea of having a yard party in response to a super fancy party a few [...]

Just a hop, skip and a jump from Naptown, in the berg of Fort Wayne, something is bubbling just below the surface. That something may be a batch of meth, you never know. Regardless, I’m pleased to be telling ya’ll, not about the social ills of the rustbelt, but rather about The Illegitimate? Sons, a [...]

Danish sextet Alcoholic Faith Mission are on the road right now, spinning the odometer in support of their shiny new Ask Me This long player. The record was produced by Tom McFall (R.E.M., Weezer, Stars), and the band has been getting a lot of warm fuzzies in the press lately from folks who can speak [...]

Here’s something a little different for a Monday morning. The Bombay Royale are a small army disguised as a musical collective, dedicated to dragging you (kicking and screaming if need be) back to Bollywood of the 60s and 70s. Their mind and genre-bending debut You Me Bullets Love (get it from the fine folks at [...]

Ohio’s The Ready Stance makes that kind of timeless Midwestern roots rock that I cut my teeth on and of which I still can’t get enough. There’s just something about a jangly guitar and a sharp shiny hook. Nothing fancy here, kiddies. Just four guys in a room bashing out honest heartland rock; stuff that’ll [...]

As of this post, it could start to seem as if MOKB is Radiation City central. Miss Dolly Mod wrote about the group last August. About two months later, after The Hands That Take You came out on Tender Loving Empire, I did a lot of jumping up and down about it. And here I [...]

On Tuesday, May 8th, St. Louie’s Living Things will be rolling out the madly infectious, Fake it Baby, Fake it (La Dame Nature). The two-sided single is meant to whet yer whistle for the band’s upcoming self-titled EP and, truth be told, I didn’t realize how good this steamroller of a song was until I [...]

Earlier this week, Hanni El Khatib released a video for his new single Roach Cock. The song is a b-side to a limited edition of 500 8″ that also features a cover of The Cramps’ Human Fly. MOKB was given the opportunity to premiere the mp3 for the in your face song that [...]
