http://youtube.com/watch?v= UBB8Tr31G_g[/youtube] Props to my buds at The Pensblog for sending this over. Bill Cowher made an appearance at yesterday’s Hurricanes playoff game to sound the opening horn. Why do they even have a crank horn? Oh wait, it’s a hurricane alarm horn…I just answered my own question, so don’t bother emailing me. As The […]

I’ve never hid my love for both Method Man and Redman. How High is still a ridiculous movie. Add in Bun-B from UGK, and I’m there. I’m not down with new, just-released music, so apologies if this is older than I thought. Method and Red just dropped a new single with Bun-B called City Lights, and […]

Game 3 against the Flyers, with the Pens up 2-0 in the series, drops today at 3 PM. On NBJerks. MAF would like to remind you how close we were to this being a tied, 1-1 series heading back to Philly. Don’t get complacent, Pens fans and players. This series isn’t over until the Flyers […]

Man, these couldn’t have come at a better time. My voice is completely shot after the incredible OT win in Game 2, and some Chinese people could probably sum up my emotions better. Props to my buddy Gavin for sending these along. Apparently, they’re blocking Youtube in China, so he traveled to Hong Kong to […]

Since we’re getting ready for Game 2, here’s a collection of Penguins stuff for your eyes and ears. First off, Jim’s trying to do a Yinz Luv Da Guins episode after each game. I applaud his efforts, and have posted the Game 1 recap here:   Next, how cute are Geno’s parents? At least that’s […]

Here’s an old Snickers commercial featuring Penguins great Mario Lemieux. And his hair. The whole thing is in French, and it’s old, so I can’t really offer you any insightful analysis . “Wow, the quality is crappy.” “Why isn’t this in English?” “Snickers bars rule.” There, that’s pretty much all you should expect anyway. http://youtube.com/watch?v= […]

This is the side of my buddy Cotter‘s shoes. That’s definitely Meaty and Mini Horse from Rob and Big. Quite possibly the best shoes ever. An interview with author and golf analyst Jimmy Roberts. [Hugging Harold Reynolds] Billy Corgan adapted Bullet With Butterfly Wings for wrestling. [Steady Burn] Isiah “Thompson” had a bad day. [The […]

If you hadn’t heard, Midgets vs. Mascots is a new movie that’s set to come out soon, featuring Gary Coleman, Ron Jeremy, Scottie Pippen and a group of, well, midgets and mascots. Here’s the premise: “In this “Borat” meets “Jackass” shockumentary, 5 little people and 5 mascots battle for $1 million apiece in competitions like […]

After last night’s game, which included a great goal by Geno, who wouldn’t want to steal away the 2009 Art Ross winner? My buddy Benson came up with another Burghability commercial for Iron City Beer (remember the brilliant first one?). In the latest, the success of the Pens, and especially Geno, forces a “friend” to reveal […]

Thanks to Liz for this one. I used one like this a few weeks ago, but this one is different. And it still gets a… …Hey, baby. Read on, I’m done here: Big-time win for the Pens. [The Pensblog] Chinese soccer coaches suck. [Sports Rubbish] What was the best draft class of the past 25 […]

Longtime readers know that I moved to NYC after the 2007-08 NHL All Star break despite living all of my life in the sticks south of Pittsburgh. I immediately became a Pens fan trapped in the commercial capital of the world, far from the comforts of the Civic Arena and all the hockey staples that I […]

A bunch of websites are probably analyzing the season game by game, or mentioning how soft our schedule is after the brutal opponents we had last year. Whatever…it’s April. However, I just wanted to provide the schedule so you can reference it in the future, like when football season gets closer and it’s okay to […]

With the playoffs starting tonight, we can safely assume that Sidney’s Playoff BTM will be resurrected. While most grizzled vets will sport the full-on mountain man beard, 21-year old Sid will again dominate the baby-faced peach fuzz that is a BTM. I have no room to really criticize, as the best I can do is […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v= oNgCYM9AZac[/youtube] The still-young NFL offseason has given fans the implementation of the Hines Ward Rule, so overwhelmed defensive rookies need not worry about getting their jaws broken when they’re out-physicaled by a WR in future years. We all know the tale of the Bengals’ Keith Rivers getting knocked out for the season by Ward, […]

First off, cheers to my good buds at The Pensblog for setting this whole thing up. It’s a work of art. If you’ve noticed, there’s no good hockey playoff pick ’em games on the Internet. The Pensblog guys took the time to remedy that situation, and created the beast that is Rinkotology. This sick game […]
