ESPN recently had Samuel L. Jackson and Heat superstar Dwyane Wade pick March Madness brackets. I’m still not sure why, but I’ll go with it. I didn’t even pay attention to what badass Samuel L. was saying, because I was kinda distracted by Dwyane Wade’s national champ pick. He picked Pitt, which I’m sure might […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v= hPehKbEJScQ[/youtube] Look, Youtube videos are crucial to this site. If I’m going to highlight the local fans as much as I do the athletes, teams and owners, then fan videos are the way to go. To you upstart bloggers out there, you must beware the dangers of Youtube. You may think you’ve stumbled upon […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v= Gqju2T0pHtA[/youtube] You know me…I love to pick on foreigners for their accents and butchered attempts to master the English language. You can find a bunch of my thoughts on this back at the last China Jack post, which chronicles every time I insulted the Chinese man’s English. I’ll go a little easier on Geno, […]

Well Dan Rooney’s St. Patrick’s Day went about as well as could be expected. Thanks to my good buds at HHR for passing this along. President Obama finally nominated Steelers owner Dan Rooney for the Irish Ambassador position that had been rumored for the past few weeks. “I am honored and grateful that such a […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v= Ru6NOtXrILE[/youtube] Two weeks ago or so, we found similarities between the acquisitions of Gary Roberts and Bill Guerin. Ray Shero had scouted both in 2007 near the trade deadline, which led to Roberts joining the team that year and Guerin making his way to Pittsburgh in ’09. Yesterday, the Penguins had a great 6-4 […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v= Y1J7CCs3ems[/youtube] Alright people, this is the Internet. This thing was designed for speed, or for NOT WAITING A WEEK+ FOR A VIDEO! Last week, with the assistance of Seth from Empty Netters, we got to see some screengrabs of MAF in a blonde wig, playing Rock Band. A quick bit about MAF/Rock Band was […]

Yesterday, I came across a stock comic strip generator. So naturally, I made one. Now, I used to dabble in art. I had a great great uncle or something that was a fantastic artist, but he threw it all away with booze. When I was a kid, I wanted to be a comic strip artist. […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v= adO5-QsUf78[/youtube] We get so few moments of true bliss in our lives, that when something perfectly funny comes along, you have to share it with as many people as possible. I post a lot of videos to highlight the absurdity of fellow local sports fanatics, but some stand out above the rest. This is […]

Big ups to my buddy Rich for the tip. Recently, Jerome Bettis celebrated his 37th birthday at Club Pure at Cesar’s Palace. As a gift, he received a personalized bottle of Jose Cuervo Platino Tequila with pictures of his playing days on the box. And I must say, that is a mighty fine box of […]

Who is this guy, you may ask? He’s Thomas C. Foley, the most recent U.S. Ambassador to Ireland. He vacated his position in January, and the guy in line to succeed him is someone we all know…Steelers owner Dan Rooney. Via PFT: “Irish-American businessman and owner of the NFL Pittsburgh Steelers football team Dan Rooney […]

See here. Too bad it’s only early March. Picture stolen then MS Painted from the inimitable Maddox.

http://youtube.com/watch?v= cOKob2XxsMg[/youtube] So Penguins practices seem fun. First we get Sid dribbling a soccer ball, and now this. After practice one day, Geno and the guys were hitting pucks into the crowd as souvenirs. I don’t know if this is a regular happening, as I now live in NYC and cannot get to the Iceoplex […]
