For those of you unaware, the Pittsburgh Penguins won the Stanley Cup tonight for the first time since 1993. It was the first win by a visiting team in a final series seventh game since the 1979 Philadephia Phillies. The Penguins defeated Subtropical Southeastern Michigan's very own Detroit Red Wings.

I'm just saying. Naturally this topic brings me no personal joy. The problem with being in the Pacific timezone is that all the games are over by the time the kids get to bed.

Yes... congratulations, Pens fans... even in my sorrow I must be sportsmanlike. Your victory was deserved. I...

Perhaps you could explain how that team continuously has such a deep pool of talent? What with the salary cap, I'd expect them to come back to the mean in a few years but they are a perennial presence at the top of the league. Good ownership, I guess, and perhaps some nine sticks forged in the unquenchable foundries of hell.

I'll call your Pittsburgh Penguins championship and raise you a Lakers championship! [Image Can Not Be Found] [Image Can Not Be Found] [Image Can Not Be Found]

Seriously though, congrats to the Pittsburgh.  And no, I wasn't one of those crazy people on Sunday ripping up downtown Los Angeles and setting fire to trees.  I think some of those people needed a bit more discipline in their childhoods!

Me, too. I spent a big block of my childhood growing up in the Pittsburgh area.

Stop it! All of you, just stop it!

WE ARE A RED WINGS-SUPPORTING SITE. End of discussion. Our recent loss is, like the Book of Job, a test of our stalwart... uh, ness. Our stalwartness. Stalwartitude.

You're killing me here!
