...randomness surrounding Guided by Voices, Robert Pollard, and other great indie rock bands; a quasi objective look at "my" sporting teams; the random horror film; plus other crap as we see fit...all with a Pittsburgh based feel.

Pittsburgh Holds Parade to Celebrate...

the return of Gary Roberts


Yep. An estimated 350,000 people lined the streets of Pittsburgh to welcome back Gary Roberts, who will be in town tonight with his new team, the Tampa Bay Lightning. The Superbowl Champion Pittsburgh Steelers made a brief guest appearance.

Roberts was not on hand to hoist the Lombardi trophy, which he helped the Steelers win on Sunday. While he was not seen on the field, or the box score, Roberts presence in Florida on Sunday was enough to get the job done.
