Neil Walker And Ryan Mundy Are Male Models

I’d venture to say that more kids in Pittsburgh want to grow up to play for the local Pirates, Penguins and Steelers more than say, modelling. With the Steel Mills and sports and Iron City and manliness everywhere, there’s a certain Zoolander black lung and merman stigma if you wanted to be a model. But […]

This Penguins Table Tap Looks Like A Bong

Stick tap to Charlie for putting this on Google+. Pictured here is a Pittsburgh Penguins table tap straight from the NHL Shop. A ~$350 Penguins table tap. I guess $350 is a legit figure if you love the Pens that much and find a need to always have 100 ounces of rapidly-warming beer at your […]

FOOTBALL NEEDS MORE TAEKWONDO

Ok so this isn’t really taekwondo actually happening during an NFL game but find me something else as odd as the martial art being performed on the Three Rivers Stadium turf and I’ll post that instead. I found the shorter first vid, which led to the longer clip directly below it. The bottom vid contains […]

Raggedy Ann And Andy Are Steelers Fans, Black

To be fair there are also white ones available but Raggedy Ann and Andy were introduced in 1915 and 1920 respectively which was before the Steelers or better race relations so I went with the ones that would shock the most. And just like before, this ends “it’s-Friday-and-I’m-tired-so-lets-just-find-something-wild-on-Etsy” which is pretty much its own real […]

Jerry Meals Calling Everything In History Safe

Man, Benstonium is on some South Park-level of turning out content immediately as it makes news. Chris sent over the following video pretty much right after umpire Jerry Meals blew an insane call in last night’s 19-inning Pirates/Braves tilt. And this is right after a fantastic Buccos tribute just 2 days ago. The premise is […]

The Penguins Should Retire Mario Lemieux’s…Number 16?

Ok so as a lifelong Pens fan and Mario Lemieux worshipper, finding action of Le Magnifique in any number other than 66 shakes me to my core. Since when did Mario cramp Jay Caulfield and Eddie Olczyk and Glen Sather and Kris Beech and Erik Christensen and Paul Bissonnette’s style with the number 16? This […]

Benstonium Should Make Like 35 Pirates Tributes

Oftentimes, my post titles sum everything up to the point where I struggle to fill the actual post with relevant words. This is one of those times. I grin like an idiot when I get emails from my bud Benson, as it usually means I have another sick video to check out. I mean just […]

Geno And Gonch Are Good Swimmers

The Pens website has had a number of vids lately regarding Geno’s recuperation from a nasty knee injury. We saw the Pitt stuff earlier this week. Here’s a new vid of Geno and SERGEI GONCHAR swimming laps in Russia under the watchful eye of Pens strength and conditioning coach Mike Kadar. Perfect timing, as it’s […]

Hines Ward Is Gay

I hope my headline is as tabloid-y as the National Enquirer. Cos the National Enquirer pretty much calls Hines Ward gay on the cover of their latest issue. So that makes Kordell, Pouncey and now Hines. via the Freak Show

Jim Leyland Swearing At Barry Bonds A Lot

There’s been a lot of excitement around these 2011 Pittsburgh Pirates. The currently-above-.500 record and battle for 1st place has reignited some long-dormant emotions. So let’s go back and look how lovey-dovey the Pirates were during their last successful years. Oh yeah, that’s Jim Leyland absolutely laying into young prima donna Barry Bonds in Spring […]
