--Matt Capps blew an eighth-inning lead and subsequently nailed Albert Pujols in the Pirates' 7-3 loss to St. Louis on Sunday. That's eight losses in a row for the Battlin' Bucs, who are thankfully off on Monday. Although I would put decent odds on this team finding a way to lose on an off day.[PBC Blog]
--The always-popular Steeler goal-line drills went down this weekend, and the defense got the best of the offense, 4-3. The bad news? Frank the Tank and Rashard Mendenhall could not penetrate the first-team defense. The good news? The first-team defense was able to hold off power backs like Frank the Tank and Rashard Mendenhall.

Not surprised at all to see a 63 year old guy wait that long in line to be the first one in.
What else was he doing?
Waiting in line would be just as exciting as being inside for me.
Snoop is now and has always been a joke.
snoop is a spy working undercover for the steelers.
Love the 'All Star Grille' comment. That was a nice place until he started arguing with the Steeler brass regarding his contract status. Then the place went empty.
I never really heard it much since his induction but I still have a little bitterness toward Woodson. He was given a fair offer at the time, rejected it, and though was his right, seemed to help spin it as the 'Cheap 'ol Steelers' moniker.
I guess time heals most wounds, but I don't really consider him in the Steeler type mould like the ones in Canton before him. Maybe it's just the post Super Bowl 70's era, or me remembering what a douche he acted when he left here.
