At least Pittsburgh fans have the Pirates to look forward to.

The Pens got downed 4-1 by the Carolina Hurricanes last night. Pascal Dupuis had the only goal and Fleury gave up the first point under 2 minutes into the game. The epic return of Kovalev got overshadowed by the beatdown and it does not look like Sidney Crosby is coming back any time soon.  Jimmy Murphy of Espnboston.com and droppuckmurphy.com heard from a source in Pittsburgh that Crosby maybe done for the season. Via his twitter account, he said "As I have been told by Pittsburgh sources, Stephen Brunt now saying on Team 990 (in Montreal) he heard "whispers" Sidney Crosby maybe done for season."

With Malkin out for the season and Sid the kid most likely done for the year, its time for Pittsburgh Fans to focus their attention Bob Nuttings ball club. 

Okay so maybe that may be a little to much to ask for from a Pittsburgh fan since Bob Nutting aka: The Worst Owner in baseball, is in charge of the Pirates Franchise, but for the very few Pirate die hards (which i am not) I salute you.  Its been basically two decades since the pirates had a winning season. That is just pathetic. The reasons for it is up for debate put the most common one is the ownership. I want to get excited about spring ball but i cant...i wont. Too many times have i gotten excited over the pirates winning a decent amount of games to start the season only for them to just completely collapse, but hey they are bound to get to the post season eventually right?....i cant even type that with a straight face. 

I guess we can only wait and see what happens with this ball club. We can discuss and debate this topic all we want but the fact of the matter is this: two decades of losing is two decades of losing. Something needs to be done. So Bob Nutting, wealthy pockets or not, do you really want to be known as a loser? If you don't then do something about it. If you don't care and just want a thick wallet then i don't blame you. You're doing a good job don't change a thing.
