Bucs Win Big,Pens Lose

It was a hockey night in Pittsburgh,And the Pens drew first blood against the Red Wings,But 2 unanswered goals resulted in 2-1 Detroit win.The Pens are now facing elimination on Monday back in the Motor City.Let's just hope the Pens can fight back.Puck drops at 8pm.The Pittsburgh Pirates lost 5-4 in St Louis on Friday,They battled back in the 9Th,But failed to score 2 more.. Tonight on the other hand,The Bucs scored the 2 they didn't last night,Plus 12 more in a 14-4 rout of the Cards.And this game was not even that close in the 7Th when Paul Maholm left with a 13-1 lead,Every starter had at least 1 hit,Well except for Adam Laroche,Who went hit less.The RBI leader for tonight?Luis Rivas..Yes that's right good old 0-forRivas.He had a grand slam,And a triple for 4RBI'S..Maholm pitched a great game tonight,Giving up 1 run in 6 innings,And no walks by any Pirate pitcher tonight! This has to be a first. Odds and Ends Still no word on my email to the Pirates about the ass hat JVB in Allentown on Thursday.It really doesn't shock me that the Pirates care about their fans as much as The Hagerstown Suns do.Speaking of the Suns,Only this team could schedule Nora Roberts night the same night they have the Washington County Health System cookout.And I'm sure my favorite Suns employee is behind that masterpiece.Way to go Herman!Maybe,Just maybe i would not be so hard on Herman,Or the Suns if they did things the way real Ball clubs do.Customer service,Make the game fan friendly(Like the shirts you all wear say).I've been to 2 other ballparks this year so far for games,(And 1 just for workout night)All 3 have bent over backwards to make their fans happy.The New York Giants received their Super Bowl rings the other day in New York,Wonder if Jeremy Shockey was too busy pounding drinks to show up.And how good does Eli Manning have to feel right now,Tiki Barber retires before the season,And Shockey gets hurt before the run in the playoffs,2 of Mannings biggest critics off the field,And he comes through and wins.
