Art Rooney > Me

I've told y'all a million times, I classify my PSaMP writing as "stream of consciousness sportsblogging." I don't have a schedule, I rarely know what I'm gonna post about when I wake up each morning and I write as I'm thinking. The only editing is to correct typos and blatant lies.

Correction. I do have set posts, in the MPotD and football season's MMCNY. But its the other posts I'm talking about. Like this one, for example. I always try to get you something interesting by mid-day, but I'm struggling right now. So enjoy this ancient interview with Art Rooney until I find something that sparks my interest.

Email me something and I'll post about it today. At some point.

I'm Stalling You

The interview should be up for tomorrow (or this evening, if you're diligent), so be sure to stop by and check out my candid conversation with _______ . There may or may not be a MPotD tomorrow. I want to keep the interview at the top of the page for as long as possible, so I might give you a rare afternoon MPotD. I'll be back in a regular-posting rhythm after this conversation gets posted, so until then, here's a random assortment of Steelers hilarity to stall you long enough until I get this everything together. It's going to be a bit lengthy, I think.

The picture at the top of this page comes from Hugging Harold Reynolds, which in turn came from English Fail Blog. Is it ok? No errors...anything like that? Are fans our the best. Thanks to HHR for sending that along.

Also...balls. Specifically, Steelers balls vs. Eagles balls.

Doug had a sick post about a friend giving Eagles memorabilia to a Steelers fan who lives closer to Philly. He even made a video to commemorate the adventure. His video will come after this other one I found. Some dog decided to chew up a Steelers ball rather than an Eagles ball. Eagles fans apparently would rather trust the primitive brain of an animal.



Steelers fans go on human instinct.



The battle for PA. Decided by balls. Who woulda thunk?

PSaMP Is One

On this day, one year ago, PSaMP was birthed. Thanks to the Penguins staying in Pittsburgh, I decided to start a place to vent my frustrations, discuss some local-sports oddities and enjoy images of kickass little horses.

Thanks to everyone who has ever read PSaMP. Although I started the site for myself, in the end, its really about you, the reader.

If you are new to PSaMP, try the About PSaMP/FAQ section.

This is all you're getting out of me today regarding the anniversary.

The first Classic MPotD is coming up.

So Close

If you've noticed the counter on the upper-left-part of the page, the number of days counted is getting ridiculously close to 365. It isn't just some random assortment of numbers. The internet was officially dominated the day I started PSaMP, and the one-year anniversary is oh so close. (Actually, the one-year anniversary will fall on day 366. Stupid leap year)

Whatcha gonna get me? I want some toys, or maybe some cd's or something.

Actually, I'm letting the one-year anniversary pass by with nary a party. If you were around for my 6-month anniversary, you'll remember that it was kind of a big deal. I don't have the energy to do something like that again. At least not for awhile.

So yeah, I might make a quick post on the official anniversary day, but that's about it.

Oh, and there will be a change to the Mini Pony of the Day once year #1 comes to a close. Since I began the site writing for 2 people a day (if I was lucky), not many people saw the first few MPotDs. In the place of new, fresh pictures of cool mini ponies, I'm going to post classic MPotDs from that date one year ago. I used to type in all lower-case letters, so I'll be sure to re-post the original captions with corrected punctualization/capitalization. However, keep sending me cool mini horse pictures if you feel so inclined. Its always good to have a surplus of future MPotDs in my back pocket.

Until then...remember to join the brand-new PSaMP Facebook Group!
