I didn’t see you posted anything today, Rick, I was busy writing my rant. I haven’t read your article yet, but if I cover any ground you also covered, my apologies.
In a response to a recent post of our very own television star Rick Buker, JCW called our Pittsburgh Penguins “Fool’s Gold”. First of all, thank you JCW, you have given me a new alliteration to use – the Pyrite Penguins. However, more importantly the term is quite appropriate.
Perusing other web sites, I ran across so many naïve prospectors mistaking our Pyrite Penguins for true gold as these talking heads discuss the team’s changing needs are as we approach the trade deadline and playoffs. At this point in the season our favorite flightless fowl are 3rd in the division in Pnts% but 2nd in total points (the Pens have played more games). Our hometown heroes even spent a moment at the top of the division and there in lies the Fool’s Gold.
News flash everyone, there are too many holes (in a Mike Sullivan based system) and too little assets to address those needs, to be true Cup contenders.
