Pens win, Some links and Video Game of the Week...

Well sports fans, first and foremost, congrats are in order for our Pittsburgh Pens who defeated the Senators last night 6-5 in a shootout. Jarko Ruutu scored the deciding goal on an amazing fake-then-thru-the-5-hole move that left Ottawa crying in whatever it is those damn Canadians cry in...

Player of the game goes to Ryan Malone, who scored two goals and was playing every shift like a man with a mission...The fourth line also looked pretty good, flying all over the ice and hitting anything that moved...We also overcame two seperate two goal deficits, which is a good sign for this team that has had it's heart questioned in recent weeks...Maybe this will be the turning point we're all talking about when we win the Cup...Maybe...

YEA!!! Somebody other then me scored a goal!!!

In football news, yesterday's games were about as exciting as a kick in the balls...Indy, Green Bay and Dallas all won, and all won pretty big...At least Brett Favre and the Pack are a feel good story in this era of Spygate, but I still think the AFC's best would eat their children...

In college football news, USC stayed alive in it's bid for another Rose Bowl birth by beating the hell out of Arizona St...JD Booty didn't play as his name would suggest, throwing for 375 yards and 4 TD's...It's kind of a shame Oregon might miss the Rose Bowl because of the injury to Dixon, but that's the way football is I guess...

Today is also Black Friday, aka the day my crazy mother wakes up at 2:30 AM to go shopping...Jesus H is she wild, but not as bad as those jagoffs going to Grove City at midnight last night...That's all we need; a bunch of overfed, overdrunk bastards driving 100 miles to go fight each other for bargains...I also learned from someone who went last year that most of the people who go are Canadian...I swear those bastards are invading our country one shopping outlet at a time...

Blame Canada...

Finally, check out MLB Trade Rumors, as they still believe Ian Snell is on the block...I don't know why anyone in their right mind would trade someone so young and so good, but if it brings us closer to winning (I don't really see how it can) I guess I'm ok with it...

I am going to post a new segment later today called Snack's Video Game of the Week, which will let yinz know what game the big guy is playing on the regular and why it's so sweet...Until lata...

More News...

Looks like Diego is nursing a hangover so I'm going to throw some more links at ya and hopefully he's back in action tomorrow...(unless we do it all over again tonight, of course)

Marvin Harrison is listed as questionable for Sunday's showdown with New England...I'm sure ESPN will use this as a convenient excuse for the Colts losing...Looks like this thing could linger for a while too...

We may not see this for a while...

I can finally gamble without having to go to West Virginia! The Steelers, Bucs and the new North Shore casino project reached an agreement that could allow for groundbreaking on the new casino to start by the end of the year...Whoo hoo, Snack sure does love to lose all his money gambling!

Our boys over at Pens Blog have a really interesting period-by-period, play by play review with a pretty funny take on it..check it out, it definitely makes last night a little more bearable.

We don't need more old guys, we need more HITS!

Finally, as the Pens look more and more mediocre, here's an argument by Damian Cox and Scott Burnside over the value of older players. I think with the struggles of Recchi and Roberts this piece is very relavent, so take a look, and stop all your whining for the Pens to pick up Forsberg!

Until lata tonight or tomorrow morning...
