No problem

Yeah, I haven’t been very big on hockey either.
Especially given that I’ve lived in Utah my whole life.
But it’s kinda fun to watch…

it's unbelievably huge here right now
and for good reason. the only problem is about 90% of the “fans” have no idea what they’re talking about—they’re fair weather fans and pumped once the Pens get to the playoffs.
I still watch the Pirates (mostly) anyway….sigh…

Yeah...
I’d be a fair weather fan, but I’m not really rooting for one side or another.
I’ll have to find a team to root for somehow.
I have no idea about hockey though… I understand 2 rules (icing, goalie interference… which is kinda stupid at times), and know the full names of like 2 players (Sidney Crosby, Chris Osgood) in the NHL.
Anyhow… it’s time for the Pirates to get started now. I’m sick of waiting.

I'd been there if not for the rain in WV
At least I get to the Pens plus I didn’t spend any money
Ronny can leave for all I care
I just wish Doumit didn’t get injured every month.
we're under way
nobody there except for the freebies

More than a deflection
almost a block…Jack had NO play. And the first infield hit to short was not Jack’s fault either. Clean play and bourn was actually out.

We benefit from a very unique city flag, which is black and gold. I think it’s pretty awesome, and we’re lucky it’s a cool color combo. Would suck to be pink and orange.

88 pitches after 7
looks like he’s gonna pitch the 8th then get pulled once a runner gets on base.
I was watching that until the Pens began...
He’s fun to watch sometimes because he’s often pitching against guys who were about 6 years old when he began.

We've actually been getting quite a bit out of Duke
out of 12 starts…9 have been 6 full innings or more. First start of the season went 5.2 innings against the Braves, and went 4 innings in 2 different starts against the Cubs.

Some (late) Updates from the heart of darkness...
- I trust everyone saw Ollie P’s stats the other night. He & Gorzo would make a great top of the rotation.
- Yankees have ZERO left-handers in their bullpen. Not sure if they have anything in their farm system we should covet.
- Yankees have a great back-up catcher should we release Paulino. He will have to clear waivers when Jorge Posada comes back
I can think of a few
Rasner…....Chase Wright….Ian Kennedy
