THE PITTSBURGH Sports CHATTER

[Va Beach VH Fan]

I'll just say it again...

Great teams find ways to win....

Now, I will say this.... Real Steeler fans know that there were several things NOT to like about their performance vs. the Fins...

Their tackling was piss poor for a good portion of the game...

The offensive line didn't do too much better in protecting Charlie, he was on the run for a lot of the time...

Pass defense was pretty poor as well, until the 4th quarter at least...

But, like I said, the great teams make adjustments and find ways to win....

I don't know Va...I think Ike Taylor...for the most part...did a nice job on Chambers until they started zoning more at the end...where they were even better...

and their secondary can fucking hit across the board...wow...

Their line didn't look all that good...I agree...

Overall...a close game that shouldn't have been...but my god...I can't wait to watch Miller become a superstar...and a fucking steal at the end of the draft 2 years ago...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

And may I add, the special teams sucked cock as well....

[POJO_Risin]

In the first half for sure...Welker was up and all over them...

but it improved in the 2nd half...

Welker disappeared...

Looks like you guys are going to kick our ass again this year..

Fucking Maurice Carthon..Sucks at offensive play calling..Too fucking cuntservative..

You guys should have a fucking field day..

Winslow and Frye were the Brightspots..

Winslow has admitted he isn't even up to 100% yet..

Imagine when he is at 100%..

Harrison should some promise as well.

Frye looks like he can scramble and make something out of nothing a good part of the time..

I will tell you one team to worry about..

Jaxsonville looks like a contender for the Super Bowl...

They look legit..

[POJO_Risin]

There are a lot of questions for the Browns...he was moving around way to much...

their line sucks ass...

as for Jax...

well...they were at home...

and Dallas' offense wasn't exactly impressive after the first quarter...

They've always been a good team at home...

We shall see next Monday night if they can go 2-0 vs. the World Champs....

Uhh...

no...

And another twist of As The Penguins Sale Turns....

This one, if true, is not as bad as it seems, in fact it's good news IMO...

The press, once they got hold off Mr. Blackberry (Jim Balsillie) as one of the prospective owners, immediately speculated that his main objective would be to move the team to Hamilton....

But now it appears, again if true, that he's teaming up with Mark Cuban and Murstein to make a more powerful offer to buy the team....

Mark Cuban may be a fucking goofball, but there's no way Cuban, a Mt. Lebanon native, would be involved in anything to move the Penguins....

Pittsburgh Sale Nearing?

Sources tell me that CEO of RIM/Blackberry, James Balsillie, is involved in a group that includes Dallas Mavericks owner, Mark Cuban and Andy Murstein, president of Medallion Financial Corp. in New York looking to purchase the Pittsburgh Penguins. Balsillie could sign a purchase agreement as early as next week.

[POJO_Risin]

Any way to get Cuban involved in a moribund (like that one?) Penguins franchise is a good thing...

and you know what...

if he is part of MOVING the team...then you know there is nothing else that could be done.

I agree...no way he is involved in moving that team, unless there's nothing left to do but move the team.

Fellas, I shit you not, I watched this game live last night, and when I first saw this, and he didn't move for a few minutes, I thought he broke his fucking neck....

They just announced the update, dislocated shoulder....Supposedly it popped out, and they popped it back in the dressing room....

But the positive signs, at least for making the season opener vs. the Flyers on the 5th, is that he took the plane with the team back to the 'Burgh last night, with no sling, and joking with his teammates.... He also showed up at practice this morning, and although he didn't skate, didn't show any signs of being in pain....

So let's just hope he's good to go two weeks from today....

But boy did this guy juke a few Flyer defensemen out of their jocks when he was in there....

And of course, that SICK pass to LeClair, that he promptly fucked up....
