What's the best way to include RSS feeds in my wordpress sidebar?

I have a small network of sites, and on site "A", I'd like to include a sidebar code to display recent posts from the rest of my network, minus site "A".

I've seen widgets that possibly do this, but I don't use widgets in my theme.

I'd like to include:

URL, Title, Blog Name possibly, and Thumbnail Image.

You can actually see an example at this site: http://boston.barstoolsports.com/ (warning, not very SFW)

On the sidebar he lists "Around Bartsool" which is pretty similar to what I'm aiming at.

Thanks for any suggestions
