I promise this is the last post for the afternoon.A few odds and ends that have my eye over the past couple days.The photo on the side of this post shows a very expensive(did you say expansive?No i said expensive)If you live in Washington County,And ever saw the commercial for a pizza place, You'll get that joke,Anyways,Giants WR Plaxico Burress stopped by the Sirius NFL Radio offices recently,And decided to leave his mark on a 3 Time Super Bowl Champions New England Patriots leather chair,Priceless.
And more Giants news(See Joy,I told you i had some Giants news lined up lol)They rolled out their PSL prices for their new stadium when it opens in 2010.The seats run from $1,000 to $20,000 per seat,This is not as bad as the Dallas Cowboys ,Who will open their new stadium in 2009,Their PSL's run from $16,000 to$150,000 PER seat!And that is before you add the cost of the actual ticket in(Of course if you spend that kind of cash,You aren't worried about a few more bucks)
The Pittsburgh Penguins have inked coach Michel Therrien for 3 years at around 1 Million dollars a year.This is a very good move,Get your coach signed through the opening of the new arena,Hopefully we have a couple banners to raise by then.
Even more Pens news, The 2008-09 schedule was released on Thursday,Games of note,The Pens open the season on the road,I mean really on the road, As in Stockholm Sweden.The Pens will take on the Ottawa Senators for 2 games Oct 4-5.Then they come home to face off against the New Jersey Devils.Mark this date down Penguin fans,Feb 8 2009,That's when the defending Stanley Cup Champion Red Wings come to the Igloo.I'm sure the Pittsburgh faithful will give Marian Hossa a VERY warm welcome!
1 Week away from Steelers heading to Latrobe for training camp,And I'm excited as always about the prospects of my team in 2008!A few new faces,Which we'll cover more later in the pre season.If anyone decides to go this year,Be warned there will be a Biker convention overlapping with training camp,And from various reports,Hotels in the area are booked solid.Best choice is a day trip.If you do plan to go to,And take some photos,And this goes for any training camp,Any NFL team.Send us some pictures,And we'll post them on the blog before the season starts.I will also ask any readers out there if they would like to do a 2008 look at their teams, It doesn't have to be a huge write up, Just email me,Tell me how your team will fare this season.And finally, I just would like to say thank you to everyone who has commented,or I have talked to who enjoys reading this blog,I didn't know what I would write about at first,but little by little it's taking shape..
