Draft Day! And a love note.

It’s here! I’m about to go get changed for the draft show – 49 minutes away, on ESPN2 – but I had to pass this along. Someone calling himself “SG” came across my post on Giada’s awful carbonara recipe and decided to have his say:

You’re making fun of the size of her head? Who notices her head? I’m usually checking our her massive cans. And whoever said she was making authentic Italian? Not her. It’s called “Everyday Italian,” numbnuts, meaning that they are easy recipes that are variations on classic Italian dishes or ones that are simply inspired by ingredients and techniques found in Italian cooking. She was born in Italy to Italian parents you know. Many of her recipes are handed down from her mother.

She has received formal training and has worked as a professional chef in notable restaurants. What the hell have you done?

If what this guy says is true … then Giada’s mother was a lousy cook, too.

I couldn’t just approve this priceless comment and let it lay buried on a long-forgotten thread. Enjoy!

Chat & TV.

I’ll be chatting today at the Four-Letter at 2 pm. I’ll also be on TV to talk about the draft at 4:10 EDT on ESPNEWS, again in the 7 pm hour (Pregame) on ESPNEWS, and possibly on Baseball Tonight at 10 pm, although that last one isn’t confirmed. On Thursday, I’ll be on the Herd on ESPN Radio at 10:25 am PDT, and of course, the draft show is 2-6 pm on ESPN2.

TV today.

I’ll be on ESPNEWS in about an hour, 3:40 pm EDT, to talk Jay Bruce and the draft.

Also, I have a new article up on ESPN.com on the 2003 draft, and we have 70 reports up on the site that you can access through the top 75 rankings.

EDIT: Shame on me for not thanking Mike A. of River Ave. Blues and Jason C. of Prospect Insider for helping me choose the best and worst drafts of 2003. There were too many candidates for “worst” for me to do it without seeking some outside counsel. Jason commented that “I think 20 teams tie for 30th best – or first worst,” and the line I used in my column about the Dodgers “showing off” came from Mike.

Draft content.

My predraft content is starting to appear on ESPN.com today, so for those of you waiting for it, here are links to what’s up already. I’ll update this post as more content appears; there are reports on most of the top prospects coming, I assume later in the day.

Also, I’ll be on ESPNEWS today (Friday) from 4:10-4:30 pm EDT in the Insiders segment.

Updated top 75 prospects ranking

First-round projection

Overview article (As of right now, this is free to non-Insiders)

If you have questions related specifically to those articles, please ask them in the Conversations on ESPN.com rather than here.

KlawChat.

Just a reminder that there’s a KlawChat at 1 pm today over at the Four-Letter.

Also, I’ll be on Bernie Miklasz’ show in St. Louis tomorrow at 4:20 pm CDT, and on ESPN’s Pittsburgh affiliate on Saturday at 10:40 am EDT.
