In the city and about the United States.
1. Announcers are way too obsessed with Brett Favre. While commenting on the referee's decision to wear long sleeves (In Green Bay, in November) Jim Nantz somehow managed to segue into a comment about Brett Favre's "wonderful biceps". Huh?
Why does every single announcer use his full name?
Nantz is not alone in displaying his deep affection for Favre. John Madden's claim to fame over the past several years has been his ability to work Favre's name into conversations that have nothing to do with him, the Packers, the city of Green Bay or the state of Wisconsin.
2. Terrell Owens has been indefinitely suspended from the Philadelphia Eagles. As the resident of a city described as a "drinking town with a football problem" I have to dig pretty deeply back into the past to find a Steeler who behaved badly towards his team or the general public while on the team's active roster.
3. The refereeing during the last two Penguins games in Boston has been abysmal.
4. Best Hockey moment this year (so far): Watching Sidney Crosby score his first professional goal. The look on his face was priceless.
