Rebajlo, I was in no way criticizing you for not including Foo, I just mentioned that since I was using your post as a "base" of sorts to check for minority prospects. I simply noted that Foo was not in your post, just so people weren't going back up and trying to find him. I'm hoping that...

I was honestly hoping for more than Reaves to fill that role. Even a lot of regular Pens fans aren't happy about the trade; they gave up a first rounder and a decent center in Sundqvist to get him. The other half of Penguins fans think he'll be some revelation completely keeping guys off of...

The draft starts tonight!! It'll be nice actually being able to understand the players getting drafted when they give interviews. The number of minority players being draft will likely be lower than the 11 whites drafted in the NBA last night, and there are 7 rounds! We should all be thankful...

I was watching the draft, and on the bottom, they have the ticker. Well, for the Pacers, their "team need" was athleticism, as they were the 5th slowest team in the NBA last year. I've got a question, how can that be? They were all-black, with nary a white man on the court for them all season...

I thought an athlete like Subban would've easily been able to beat Hagelin to the puck, with his quick twitch muscles and all. They must not be so quick-twitched when he's on skates ;).

Thanks Rebajlo! I've been busy, and as you can tell from my lack of depth above, I didn't have time to delve into a lot of the lower ranked guys. I don't think there'll be a draft any more without at least a few minorities in it. There seems to be a push to get Asians into hockey - what's with...

I guess I wasn't reading this as close as I should've yesterday, but Shipnuck is blatently lying on this one. Phil Mickelson (I think) still holds the distinction of being the most popular player on tour, with guys like Jordan Spieth, Rory McIlroy, and Matt Kuchar behind him. Bubba Watson is...

Don't really know if I like Mayer going to Baylor though. Baylor is about as caste a school as you can get, and one of the most despicable athletic programs in the country. At least he'll be playing with Yale's Makai Mason for a year, though, as well as Jake Lindsey.

Griezmann was sitting on the bench, as it was just a friendly. A couple of white fullbacks came on in the 2nd half for their no name Africans. As for England, they only started with 2 actual black players to go with 3 mullatos, thus giving the appearance they were more white than they actually were.

That's a great result for Iceland!! They (along with Poland) are rapidly becoming my favorite two teams to root for. Unfortunately, I won't be rooting for Germany anytime soon, as they continue to darken considerably. I'm glad they were able to win the 2014 World Cup with a nearly all-white team...

Justin Thomas fires the lowest round in U.S. Open history!!! He just made eagle on the Par-5 18th to shoot a 9 under 63! He bests Johnny Miller's mark of -8! An absolutely fantastic round by Thomas.

If you watched the finals at all, the cameras were on Subban as much as they could be. Heck, he was about shown more than anybody in the finals. I had to listen to a couple of the games on the radio, and sure enough, the primary Predators' pre-game "story" was on Subban leaving Montreal. It was...

As most of you know, the NHL will be going to 31 teams next season with the addition of the Las Vegas Golden Knights. I actually like the choice of Vegas; it's the city's first pro sports franchise, and I think the city deserves a chance. Hopefully people will take a liking to the new team. I...

650,000 Penguins fans lined the streets today for the Stanley Cup victory parade!! It's awesome seeing Pittsburgh coming out to support the Pens. An article I read said this is the largest crowd of it's type in Pittsburgh history, which would mean the Penguins got more attendees than even the...

You got that right! The Pens are the only major sports team I'm able to root for wholeheartedly anymore as well. Even though last year's run was fun, this year's win was a whole lot more satisfying for me for the reasons you mention. They had to grind it out and dig deep in the last three series...

I'm usually not one for "fanboy" posts, but..... the Penguins win the Stanley Cup!!!!!!!!!! Wooooooooo!!!! Back to back Stanley Cup Champs!!!!!!!:campeon::aaaaa::beer-toast1: Murray played an A+ game tonight, coming up with some amazing saves on Nashville. The Predators did have a goal that...

Good post Don. I found myself thinking about that last night; the Penguins crowd was awesome! They were loud and into the game. Even at 6-0, there was hardly an empty seat in the arena at the end of the game! I think it was one of the guys on either the intermission report, or on the postgame...

That's simply ridiculous. Subban is the guy that's been starting everything; regular NHL fans can see it (as evidenced by their booing of him), but the media would never report on the story honestly. Unfortunately, because of his race, the media refuses to cover Subban like they would a white...

I agree with your analysis, Don. Subban has been doing cheap stuff like that to the other teams they've been playing in the playoffs as well. I'm just glad somebody finally hit back at him. So far, I've been fairly happy with the analysts not drawing the "racist" card in regards to what Subban...

Crosby roughing up Subban was a microcosm of the whole game - I'm glad Crosby showed some fight and shut him up.

Even though Game 5 is still going on, all I can say is WOW! Pittsburgh is up 6-0 in the third period, and they came out flying tonight. This game is easily their best of the series, and one of the best of the playoffs. Crosby, Malkin, and Kessel have all played great tonight, as have Schultz and...

I'm pretty busy this summer, but I'll take a few of the teams that I usually give write-ups on. I'll take Nebraska, Purdue, Maryland, North Carolina, Army, Michigan State, Indiana, Virginia Tech, Washington, and Notre Dame.

I've been busy with work and what not the last couple of weeks, so I haven't got a chance to post much. To give an update on the Stanley Cup Final, the Penguins are currently up 2-1 after Nashville dominated the last two periods in Game 3, winning 5-1 at home. Pittsburgh won it's first two...

Great win for the Pens in Game 7!! Like Don, I was really nervous throughout the game. Honestly, I was kind of thinking Ottawa was going to win the game on one of their lucky bounce goals, especially after the Pens failed to capitalize on a lot of chances. Very glad to see I was wrong, and it...

Nashville advances to the Stanley Cup Final with a win over Anaheim last night. I'll definitely cheering for the Eastern Conference team, which will hopefully be the Penguins after tonight. Predator Center Colton Scissons recorded a hat-trick. After the hat-trick was scored, which was the goal...
