After seeing the crowd at the game during the G20 I have an idea. I heard the G20 may return to Pittsburgh in 2012. I suggest they hold the meeting at PNC park. There won't be a crowd because no one will be going there anymore. Hell, it might even keep the protesters away!

I heard that theory, and (again, from what I've heard) no he doesn't.

And I also love the way Andy Laroche hits line drives all over the field.... and hits em hard! He only makes around $500,000 a year, so I don't know that he is a great trade candidate. But maybe they'll want to rush Alvarez up or put Walker back at 3rd.



bucs on a tear now, hart went the whole 1st game in the double header and bucs ran away with the second.

dick , how many games were the bucs supposed to win with that bet you had.61 97 now.

I needed 70 wins... so, I owe him $50. We have another one going with the Chicago Bears. If they win 10 or less, I win. If they win 11, its a push. And if they win 12 or more, he wins. Da Bears are sitting at 2-1 (thanks to the effort the Steelers gave them two weeks ago). But thats a difficult division. We'll see.

We bet eachother all the time... so its all gravy.

Unbelievable! I received an email from StubHub last night for Pirates playoff tickets! It was followed three hours later by an apology. Laughing

We're sorry....we couldn't resist! Hahahahahahahahahaha!


Was that the gist of the apology? I bet the tickets had "Never" printed where the scheduled date was supposed to be.

Go to StubHub, where you’ll find a fantastic selection of tickets to every playoff game – so you experience the championship chase live and in person. Check it out. Go to StubHub and get the seats you want today.

Apology Email:Earlier today, an email promoting Pittsburgh Pirates postseason tickets was sent to you. This, unfortunately, was a mistake. We regret the error and apologize for any inconvenience or confusion this may have caused.
