My True Feelings

May 31, 2008

Well, this is my first attempt to write down my feelings involving my absolute love of Pittsburgh Sports and the ups and downs that come with being a Pittsburgh Sports Fan. Obviously there have been a great deal of bright days in my life so far in regards to the successes of the sports teams here. I have witnessed the Penguins win not one but two Stanley Cup Titles in the early 90's and I watched in excitement as the Steelers won Super Bowl XL(40) back in February of 2006 which coincidentally was the same year I married my wonderful wife Kaz. I have watched and hung on every last second of the Pirates in my earlier years of life as they won and won and won only to lose to the Atlanta Braves in what seemed like every year at some point and time in the Playoffs. A trip to Georgia with my then girlfriend and now my wife led me to a little bit of closure with the Braves even though she nor her cousin or anyone of her family members who were there knew about it and still don't to this very day.

Over Paying for Ovechkin

Read the Following: http://msn.foxsports.com/nhl/story/7670638/Ovechkin-is-getting-too-much,-too-soon

It basically depicts how the Washington Capitals are forking out way too much cash for Alexander and how his teammates like Michael Nylander and even his opponents like Martin Brodeur are paying for it. . by paying his salary!!!

Sid and Alex

The following link is to an article that goes on to explain in pretty decent detail why no one player in the NHL today will be able to break the vast majority of Wayne Gretzky's records.  And of course as all articles do they allow users to comment on said article.  The clueless person who had posted last when I read the article is trying to make a point why Ovechkin is better then Sidney and how he will adjust the "minor" discrepancy or his career goal shooting percentage.  My question is how will he ever manage to fix that flaw when he has never met a shot he didn't like or didn't take? He will have a career where he will lead the league season in and season out in shots and therefore in goals.  Ovechkin will never have Crosby-Like consistency and it is time for all the Sidney Crosby haters to admit that to themselves and each other.

Pens fans are classy.

I could be certin that Flyers, Caps, Rangers and Leafs fans would be "classy" if this happened to a Penguin player.
Hey pens fans, be classy about the Avery injury.. even if you're happy to see him lose his spleen, because It's What Gary Roberts Would Do. ``There's hockey and then there is life and your health. You don't wish that on anybody,'' Roberts said. ``I don't know Sean personally away from the rink. Obviously, we've had our comments throughout the media, but truthfully when it comes to this kind of stuff you just hope that he makes a full recovery.''

Does anyone think Sean Avery is going to get beat on in this series if he tries and thing dirty or stupid? I do think it to be a waste having Sydor scratched every night but until a need shows itself to have him in there or someone gets hurt, don't expect him to be in there.

I'd like to discuss the defense pairings. Should Sydor keep sitting? I really think they should shuffle him in and out with Suds, really depends on who we play.
