I wanted so badly for that moment to happen on camera. Damn.

Hoping this can be the fabled "sweet spot" for big-ish acts to include Pittsburgh on their tours -- those that have out-grown the 2,400 capacity for Stage AE indoors but may not have the fanbase for a full arena concert.

I'm keeping my hopes in check right now, given the Republican lean to the seats that Dems would need to flip.

But yes, certainly can.

Here is something to ponder.

Percentage of Population that Lived Outside of the Pittsburgh MSA One Year Prior - City of Pittsburgh Neighborhoods and Neighborhood Groups, 2020-2024 Period

The #1 thing that caught my eye in this one.....

Generic Ballot in PA at Dem +7 😍😍

Gov. Shapiro continues to perform well with Pa. voters ahead of reelection bid: F&M poll Pennsylvanians are worried about the direction the state is headed, but that’s not dragging down Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro’s approval ratings as he campaigns for reelection, according to the result...

Gov. Shapiro is ahead (48%) of GOP opponent Stacy Garrity (28%) in his reelection campaign for governor, F&M's latest poll found.

F&M political scientist Berwood Yost says those numbers are very likely to change closer to November

Whoopsy daisy!

Bubble watch (3/5/2026):

Pitt (4-13) & Notre Dame (4-13) both lost last night, so that means Saturday is for all the Bojangles. The Panthers play at Syracuse at 4:30; if they win, they're in the ACC Tournament. If they lose, they're out.

It's an elimination game. This is March.

Pittsburgh's Bhutanese community in the misinformation age Bhutanese refugees crossed oceans, languages and cultures to call Allegheny County home. Now they’re responding to rumors and misinformation about refugee services.

Refugees face a “turbo-charged” misinformation environment. Pittsburgh's Bhutanese community is telling its story and trying to protect 15 years of hard-won progress www.publicsource.org/pittsburgh-b...

Peter Stastny himself! What a wild life he’s lived.

My mother’s cousin scored the 2nd-most NHL points in the 1980s, behind only Wayne Gretzky.

This country can afford anything it wants. Single payer healthcare. Affordable housing. Modern transit systems. High speed rail. Everything is a choice.

It is indeed

Love it!

Interesting trade. Callihan had his season cut short last year after fracturing his arm colliding with an outfield wall, but showed some offensive potential from the left side. Top 20 prospect for the Reds who could contribute on right side of the infield or the outfield.

The system is broken.

Back in 2021(2?) Texas did a students only hoops game in their volleyball arena against Sam Houston and they were packed in 4-5k strong. I have shouted this from the mountain top ever since. Turn back the clock. byob grain alcohol, $3 beers, etc

Huskers Defeat Alumni, 3-1

While we're here, how about a 2026 volleyball team vs. alumni match like Nebraska has done?

Save for later this month.

As big a Pitt Volleyball fan as I am (and according to my scale, bigger by the day!!) it doesn't feel right that the last contest at the Field House will be a volleyball scrimmage.

I hope that Pitt can muster up a men's hoops game this fall, as Capel brought up previously:

Yeah I'm hitting that Volley-Brawl with a big ol' Hydrogen Bomb vs. Coughing Baby.

Funny how WVU started out 12-0 in non-con last season then proceeded to go 3-15 in Big 12 play.

Spring Schedule - • Wednesday, March 25 - 4 PM (intrasquad followed by Penn State - Ohio State Men's Volleyball) • Sunday, March 29 - 1 PM vs. West Virginia • Saturday, April 11 - 1 PM vs. Michigan • April 17 at Dayton

The last go-around for Pitt Athletics at Fitzgerald Field House: three volleyball scrimmages.

• Wednesday, March 25 - 4 PM (intrasquad)
• Sunday, March 29 - 1 PM vs. West Virginia
• Saturday, April 11 - 1 PM vs. Michigan

they're replaying that Krusty The Clown re-run again, eh?

NBC hires Jason Benetti as lead MLB play-by-play announcer Benetti has been the TV voice of the Detroit Tigers since 2024.

Love to see it

Also for this week's PG goodness section, I was honored to talk with Wilkinsburg-born U.S. Navy Petty Officer 1st Class Autumn Caluya -- and I talked with her for about four times as long as I was supposed to. She is the USS Gettysburg's Sailor of the Year: www.post-gazette.com/life/goodnes...

Chris Deluzio, you’ve got about 15 months to work on your command and properly line up a fastball into Teixeira’s ribs.

What would a Konnor Griffin extension look like? Maybe like PNC Park? (There weren’t any free photos of Griffin) Photo by Mjmalone54. Talk about the Pirates this spring with just about anyone — including someone not from Pittsburgh — and it…

This might be the Pirates' only chance to sign Konnor Griffin to a long-term extension. So what would it take to get a deal done? buccoball.wordpress.com/2026/03/03/w...
