We got there, but we got there right as it was ending. :(

They need to make the next rally longer. :)

Thank-You!

thank-you to all fans who took the time to show up
and be heard & seen! We had rain & sunshine; which is
the pens history in Pittsburgh. Thanks to the political people
who showed up.

Did NBC show any signs during the game?

After the Mayor & County Exec do their Steeler parade duties
time for them to think long & hard about their political
integrity & career plans...word is out on their involvement
with Forrect City.


ps- Mario not being there is a non-issue. Somebody with his illness
has no need to be standing in the rain + does anyone really think
he hasn't done enough ? For 2 hockey careers.
