Steelers Logo Compass Drawings Are Sweet

Let’s face facts, drawing the Steelers logo is hard. Here, check out my rudimentary logo that I just made in MS Paint: The hypocycloids always come out all messy and disproportionate. And as a former artist, I enjoy when people can make a drawing look as close to the intended subject as possible, unlike my […]

Roy Jones Jr. Barely Beat A Chicken At Tic Tac Toe

In the 3+ years of PSAMP’s existence, I don’t think I’ve ever written a more fun headline. And really, it tells you everything that you need to know about this bizarre scenario. Roy Jones Jr., former champion boxer, played tic tac toe against a chicken at the Rivers Casino in Pittsburgh and won. I mean, […]

Great Moments In Unlicensed Pittsburgh Sports Merch: Who Hearts PIT More?

I’ll preface this by saying that I have no personal interest in any of the countless unlicensed sports merch vendors in Pittsburgh. The Great Moments feature does just what it implies…features the highs and lows of generic Pittsburgh sports shirts, hats, blankets and other merchandise. I’ve had a number of online vendors send me links […]

TBI Sucks

Chelsea hit me up late last week and asked if she could guest-post on the ever-prominent brain and spine injuries as they relate to hockey. I’m pretty easy-going, so I said what the heck. Check out her post on TBI and hockey below. – tec *** Author Bio: Chelsea Travers is an outreach representative for […]

One Of These Guys Is Wearing A Pirates Hat

This picture shows McKeesport-area rappers Mayo and B. White. They have some song now with Raekwon that my sister sent to me. Not necessarily because the song is some groundbreaking stuff or anything, but because they’re from McKeesport and one of ’em is wearing a Buccos hat. I was born in the Christy Park district of […]

Grilling In The Rain Is Hard, Buddy

If I had to imagine the perfect promo for a grill, I’d picture a nice, warm summer afternoon, on some deck or in some backyard, a variety of steaks and burgers hanging out next to a few cold beers while the grill cooks good food effortlessly. If I’d imagine the perfect promo for a Steelers-themed […]

Thank You, Pens

Last night was a heartbreaking loss for the Pittsburgh Penguins…there’s no two ways about it. Being eliminated from the playoffs is no picnic. So I just wanted to personally thank the Pens for this past season. There were so many ups and downs, but the end result was the fans getting to see great hockey […]

Jerome Bettis Is A Fat Golfer

I mean just look at that picture. To be fair, the guy was always big, but I think he’s now actively trying to embody his Bus nickname. Just a few more pounds man… This is from some golf show with Donald Trump and Julius “Dr. J” Erving. I’m not making any of that up. The […]

Great Moments In Unlicensed Pittsburgh Sports Merch: Pittsburgh Hockey Champs

Thanks to Sean for this. He found this shirt on eBay: “In looking for some Penguins gear on Ebay, I came across the attached”2009 Pittsburgh Hockey Champions” T-shirt. There’s even a#87 jersey with Pittsburgh on the back. While the shirt definitely wants torepresent Crosby without actually using his name, this may as well be Mark […]

Josh Koscheck Predicts The Penguins Will Beat The Canadiens

Josh Koscheck is a UFC fighter who beat some dude named Paul Daley last night. He’s originally from Waynesburg, PA. Even though I’m an MMA fan, I’ve never been a huge Koscheck fan. Not really sure why. He’s trying to actively get me on his team, because after the fight (which included a post-bell sucker […]

Tons Of People Search For The Pittsburgh Pirates?

That screengrab right there…that’s from this video over on Youtube. It claims to be for FULL EPISODE Ookiku Furikabutte ( Big Windup) Season 2 Episode 6 (Part 1). Pig farmer Ouija Boondocks airplane Sandwich stalker Series 4. Those were the first words that just came to my mind and I think it makes a little more […]

Steelers Carousels Are Badass, Too

I like looking at local sports memorabilia. I think that’s painfully obvious when you peruse the PSAMP archives and see post after post on the world of unlicensed merch out there. But I enjoy it all…unlicensed, official, arts and crafts, toys… It’s safe to say that if it references Pittsburgh sports, I’m a fan. Remember […]

Great Moments In Unlicensed Pittsburgh Sports Merch: Cavemen > Cleveland

(thanks to Cotter for the banner pic) Here’s an awesome unlicensed Pittsburgh sports shirt that’s hanging from the ceiling at Foley’s, our Penguins bar in Manhattan. We talk about it all the time during Pens games, but I’ve been too lazy to raise my arms and take a picture of it for PSAMP. It’s about […]
