Gettin “Ziggy” Wit It! Written on April 27, 2009, by Bob.
I know head coach Mike Tomlin could care less what grade I give the Steelers in the NFL draft, but I’m going to anyway. I give the Steelers a B for their draft efforts over the weekend. The Steelers needed to address four key spots on the team, the o-line, the d-line, the receivers and [...]
Beat This Chuck Norris! Written on April 23, 2009, by Bob.
This is by far the greatest playoff beard you will ever see …. and we are only two weeks into the playoffs …. Pens will wrap up the series tonight against the Flyers because no one escapes the power of the beard …. Chuck Norris is jealous!!
Where’s The “Brotherly” Love Written on April 20, 2009, by Bob.
As bad as the Pens played yesterday, as bad as the Flyers fans made themselves look, the NBC broadcast team were the worst performs in yesterday’s game. The NHL owes it to their fans to have impartial announcers at the national level. To bad NBC hasn’t figured out that Eddie O has a grudge against [...]
Clash Of The Titans Written on April 16, 2009, by Bob.
It may just be high school baseball, but it sure is fun to watch. Especially when the two teams are as talented as these guys are. On one hand, there is the Butler Tornado who are under the management of Dave Florie, one of the better coaches I have seen in high school baseball this [...]
And Here … We … Go!!! Written on April 15, 2009, by Bob.
It’s the start of yet another post-season match up between the Pens and the fighting Ed Rendell’s of Philadelphia. And with the start of the post-season comes the playoff beards. Unfortunately for me, my playoff beard looks like a cross between Sidney Crosby’s and Marc-Andre Fleury’s beards from a year ago. Too bad it couldn’t [...]
Gimme A Break! Written on April 10, 2009, by Bob.
The Pittsburgh Pirates lost last night to Cardinals by a final score of 2-1 and have finished the season with a record of 2-2. This marks the first time in 16 years the Pirates have finished at .500. It’s a good thing the season is only one week long. Oh wait, I guess we still [...]
For The Love Of The Game Written on April 10, 2009, by Bob.
The weather is finally starting to turn nice enough to get back to playing some good old fashioned baseball. With the new renovations to Pullman Park and the success of many of the local baseball teams, a more perfect spring atmosphere could not be asked for. Although, the snow a few days ago leaves something [...]
Comeback Kids! Written on April 10, 2009, by Bob.
Is it possible for a coach to win the comeback player of the year? Or maybe we can just give the award to the entire Pittsburgh Penguins squad. Before Head Coach Dan Bylsma road in on his white horse, the Pens were in 10th place in the Eastern Conference and the season outlook did not [...]
Should He Stay, Or Should He Go? Written on April 7, 2009, by Bob.
Andrew McCutchen hit .318 during spring training, had six doubles, two triples, hit two home runs and had seven RBIs. Brian Bixler hit .345 in the spring, scored ten runs, had two doubles, three triples and three RBIs. Both of these players will begin the season in Triple A Indianapolis. But why? The answer is [...]
