THE BULLPEN

     Use your head, that's that lump 3 feet above your ass! Our Pittsburgh Pirates continue their series with their cross-state rivals tonight when they phace the Phillies in Philly. These are your keys for tonight's game. 1)Following another loss last night, 6-2, today's keys to the game are brought to you by the letter "P" as in putrid, porous, pitiful, pathetic. This team has no desire whatsoever to finish the season on a winning note. They just want to finish the season. Period. They show it in their pitching (both starting and the bullpen), they show it in the batter's box, they show it on the basepaths, they show it in the field and it shows in the coaching. If they don't want to be there, please put some players out there that do. Play to win the game! 2)The Bucs bats have become dormant. Again. Scoring 2 runs in 2 games won't cut it. There is always, always, ALWAYS room for more Hit, Run, & Score! 3)No one wants to hear a fat lady sing. To Mrs. Black-N-Gold, the end of baseball season truly means the end of summer. Allow Mrs. Black-N-Gold to quote the great American poet, Donald Henley, I can tell you my love for you well still be strong, after the boys of summer have gone Now, stop embarrassing yourselves and got out and play Bucco baseball the way it's mean to be played! Lets Go Bucs!!!!!
