Good news from Pittsburgh
Mood:  happy
Finally the Pittsburgh Penquins are getting some good news. After almost leaving town with no ownership, a horrible season, and the loss of last season, finally things are starting to look up. First winning the draft lottery to be able to pick Sidney Crosby. Then the signing of a top flight defensemen in Sergei Gonchar. Things are starting to come together. With the veteran leadership of Mario Lemiuex and others such as Mark Recchi, Ric Jackman, and Dick Tarnstrom the talented youth of the franchise should flourish. Prospects including Crosby as well as Kris Beech, Evgeni Malkin, Michal Sivek, Guillaume Lefebvre, Tomas Surovy, Aleksey Morozov and Ross Lupaschuk represent the bright future possible for the franchise. The goalie position is still relatively inexperienced, but is talented with Sebastien Caron, Marc-Andre Fleury, and Andy Chiodo. The penquins will be contenders soon, maybe not this year but soon.

Rosenhaus must go....
Mood:  irritated
Every player entering the draft should have a degree from college, specifically a finance degree. If your on your way to make NFL money, you should now how to invest it wisely instead of depending on others. Just ask Mike Tyson. This will not only give players a degree to fall back on, but will also remove the cancer of contact negotiations, the Agent. Drew rosenhaus leads the charge of useless middle men. Players should never hold out and he and others not only condone hold-outs, but convince their clients to hold out. They don't care about the player, just about how big their cut is going to be. With rising salaries teams have had to raise ticket and merchandise prices. So this trend affects the most important part of sports, the fan. One client of Rosenhaus, Terrell Owens, signed a contract worth $48 million and included a $10 million signing bonus. He is now holding out on Rosenhaus' advice. Since when is $48 million not enough money? I can't stop paying my mortgage to negotiate a lower monthly payment, so why can athletes back out of their signed contracts.

Why are they so afaid of women?
Mood:  irritated
Male golfers (mainly V.J.) were afaid of Anika and now are scared of a 15 year old girl. The new threat to thier manhood is Michele Wie. In auto racing they fear Danica Patrick. Led by the moronic Robbie Gordon the field would be happier with Danica on the sideline than beating them on the track. If a woman could make a run at the NHL, girls are making thier high school football teams, and women sports emerging in many sports at the professional level, than why can't they play with the boys. Patrick is drawing attention to auto racing and Wie will prove to be the female counterpart of Tiger Woods, by generating interest in young girls to play golf. Face it auto racing is driving a car, it does take skill, but females can drive too and golf isn't exactly the most physical sport out there. If these woman can prove they belong than the men are just gonna have to deal with it. If you can't stand being beat by a women than maybe you don't belong. So shut up Robbie, V.J., and company and prove you belong.
