Pittsburgh got blasted with almost 2 feet of snow this weekend, and I’ve been stuck in my house for 3 days. How this relates to the Bucco’s I’m not really sure, although I can say that I’ve never wanted baseball season to start more than I do today. Luckily football season is now over and pitchers and catchers report in nine days, so we’re not far away at this point.
In other news, there was a bunch of hullabaloo (good vocab word) on the internets last week about a poorly written editorial that ran in the PG (link purposely omitted, if you really want to read it, I’m sure you can find it). I’ve been really busy with work the last few weeks, and so I didn’t really chime in, and a lot has already been said by people much smarter than I about the subject. All I can really say is that if there’s one thing I know, its that people who choose to be ignorant are generally not worth the time it would take to correct their ignorance. If anonymous writers at the PG don’t want to understand baseball’s economic system, or want to ignore what the penguins were spending on salary prior to the NHL lockout, nothing I can say is going to change that. This really goes beyond sports and extends to the internet at large and the whole situation kind of reminds me of this xkcd cartoon and this from penny-arcade.
