I’m sad to see Bibs go. He was the enthusiastic voice of this great era of Penguins hockey.

Sure, he was a homer and a goof. But he was OUR homer and goof, dammit!!!

“Mearsy” however can go f*** off somewhere. He had all the charisma and personality of a soggy piece of toast. :eyeroll:

@PanthersPens62
I dont really know other announcers, but our color guy died in november last year and avs games have been pretty much impossible to watch since.

I grew up listening to the guy and he was a great human and man. It's so sad I can't even really describe it. f***s me up.

I am in awe! He jumped in to & swam to the middle of the Allegheny River to get 2 baseballs! :amazed: You will also note he gave both balls to a kid. But yeah, he hates kids. :shakehead

Love the t-shirt & love his love for The Burgh! :yo:

Meat was good.

The mop wasn't spicy enough or plentiful enough.

Not bad but I've had FAR better.

Youtube TV has this multiscreen feature, but I can't tell if there's a way to pick the games on it.

Why would I ever want to watch unranked vs unranked?

Oklahoma has a 3 score lead after 10 minutes, lirl, get this joke of a game outta here

I love how @John Price claimed the other day he rarely drinks beer yet here he is today "at the bar". :rolleyes:

I love how he also said he was not going to any baseball games this weekend, yet clearly went last night & is likely on his way to the ballpark after he drowns himself in beers at the bar. :rolleyes:

I love how you referred to the sauce (I’m assuming) as “the mop” :laugh:
You may not be familiar with Eastern NC BBQ but that is one of the names for it.

Steps to Eastern NC BBQ:
1) get a whole hog
2) smoke that bitch very low and very slow over hickory wood, applying coarse salt before the smoke (other seasonings are optional). Some places apply a mop while cooking, some don't.
3) roughly chop the meat and add some mop while chopping (mop is composed primarily of vinegar and red pepper; variations exist but ABSOLUTELY NO TOMATO PRODUCT OF ANY KIND ALLOWED or it's no longer Eastern style)
4) Serve with white slaw; other sides include collards, baked beans, etc.

EDIT: Where's Carolinas Identity when you need him

Initially, I was just giggling at the term “mop” :laugh: :laugh: :)

It changed my view of BBQ forever.

I had to speak at a conference in NC like 8 years ago and knew nothing about their barbecue, so I tried it and fell in love immediately. I love almost all types of BBQ but Eastern is my favorite.

If you want to taste the meat above all else, you'll probably like it too. If you want a thick, gooey sauce, it might not be for you.

EDIT: For the uninitiated, cooking something over direct heat on a grill is grilling, not barbecue.
