Game 5 Analysis
Here we go... due to injuries we were expected to get beat bad in this game, but Ben Roethlisberger stepped up and said with his gameplay that losing wasn't acceptable. Maybe it had something to do with us losing to the Jaguars four times in a row or maybe it is because we haven't won a conference road game since 2004. Whatever it was, we figured it out. Ben had an exceptional game gaining 309 yards after a personal best 239 in the first half. Mewelde Moore had a great game with his... Read Full Story
New Logo
So I have been working on a logo for my site and this is what I came up with. I know it is just a penguin, but it is what I like. I incorporated all the penguins logos into one. I thought about putting more other sports into it, but I didn't like anything I came up with. Let me know what you think!If you have anything to add, email us at everythingpittsburgh@gmail.com Read Full Story
Predicting Pens
With the upcoming season starting tomorrow, I was thinking how I could honor them this season. So I decided to do a prediction, but then I thought that would really be cumbersome to do 82 predictions. I figured a five game span would be acceptable, so that is what I decided on. I am just shooting for the overall record for the span and a brief synopsis. Game 1 This is game 1 for the season in a distant country. It looks like the Pens are favored. It will be a big rematch from last year's... Read Full Story
Pitt Upsets #10 South Florida Bulls
Well, I am not much of a college football blogger, but this one was worth mentioning. I am a Pitt fan, yes, but I am more of a pro sports fan. Anyway, this was a great game, back and forth. Pitt was ranked at the beginning of the season and might just have crept back in it with this victory. We will see though. All in all, I thought Pitt's defense look excellent and played to win. Here are the stats for the game, to give you an idea. Punts-Average3-39.35-43.4Return Yards00Punts-Returns0-00... Read Full Story
Jacksonville Jackasses
A big statement game this week. We are incredibly injured and are going into Jacksonville. The Jaguars were a Superbowl favorite at the beginning of the season right up until they started 0-2. Since then, they have won 2 straight, against a struggling Indianapolis and a dying Houston. Both were last minute victories, but victories nonetheless. Also, take into consideration they are still trying to be legitimate contenders. A victory against Pittsburgh would go a long way, but another loss... Read Full Story
Game 4 Analysis
It wasn't very pretty, in fact, if I wasn't a huge fan, I would have given up on this team before halftime. I kept thinking, finally, halftime, maybe we can regroup. Apparently alot went down in that locker room. Ben Roethlisberger addressed the offense and then asked the coaches if he could go no-huddle. Typically, when nothing is going good, you don't just go no-huddle. If the other team is confusing you, you don't go no-huddle. If your line is letting the floodgates open for the opponent...

Patriotism...
I am not typically a very political person or politically correct for that matter. I see many problems outside the economy with our country right now. We have lost our pride in who we are, what we are, and what we do. Back in the day, we had pride because we didn't have to watch everything we did and said. Now we do anything "controversial" and we are in danger of losing our jobs or our bank accounts. We are so sue happy that it is all but impossible to have actual freedom of speech in...

Game 3 Analysis
I figured I owed you all this much, as bad as they are. They are the stats from the Last game. The few bright spots are Polamalu's interception, his third of the year which ranks him second in the NFL in that category. We also have six total for the season which is over half of our total of eleven from last year. Our defense held the powerful Eagles offense to just 65 yards on the ground. We are averaging 64 yards per game which ranks second in the league so far. We rank 9th against the pass... Read Full Story
