		<title>Chat: The Raiders, Jets, and NFL Cornerbacks</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We brought in our esteemed colleague Carl &#8216;Action&#8217; Jackson to dissect the cornerback situation in the NFL, specifically related to Nnamdi Asomugha and Darrelle Revis&#8230;
CJ: Anyway, there&#8217;s two main points I have to make in this whole thing, one being an explanation of what it means to be a cornerback in the modern NFL (in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hey Everyone! Sports are happening in the summer!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I know it&#8217;s easy to ignore sports in the summer sometimes, particularly here in Pittsburgh. Personally, I&#8217;m bouncing off the walls anticipating August 15th when the 2010/2011 English Premier League season kicks off. Until then, here is a nugget to tide us over. Charlie from Bucs Dugout is one of the best when it comes [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy Tuesday! The Birdman finally inks his most obvious tattoo to date</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love me some Chris Andersen. His energy off the bench for the Denver Nuggets has made him a fan favorite in the city, and his patented &#8220;birdman&#8221; celebrations and signature style, tattoos and hair all over the place, have endeared him to both the casual and die-hard NBA fan. His 2010 averages of 5.9 [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy Monday! Blah with a side of Meh</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
A pretty uneventful weekend in the world of sports. Oh sure, there were two days filled with World Cup action, the final rounds of the 110th U.S. Open had both Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson teeing off, as well as blast from past (which is also what she said) Ernie Els, and interleague play in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Being a Mascot Racer is in HIGH DEMAND</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Courtesy of ESPN and the AP:
PITTSBURGH &#8212; The Pittsburgh Pirates are down a pierogi.
The team fired one of the people who races in the dumpling-shaped costumes because he criticized the contract extensions given to general manager Neal Huntington and manager John Russell on his Facebook page.
Andrew Kurtz of New Brighton participated in the Pirates&#8217; in-game [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy Friday! Your 2010 NBA Champion: The Los Angeles Lakers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 
Well, somebody had to win that one right? In a game with some god-awful offensive statistics (I mean&#8230;GREAT DEFENSE!), the Lakers beat the Celtics in game 7 on their home floor, winning 83-79, and collecting banner #16 for the franchise and for the city of Los Angeles (and Minneapolis). The funny thing about this game is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy Thursday! A Sportsgasmic Day</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
We usually like to start the day here with stories that are snarky, sarcastic, or humorous. There&#8217;s no need for that today, as there is enough actual sporting material to make any true sports fan happy.

In World Cup action, Argentina faces South Korea, in what should be the match of the tournament so far. Actually, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Vote for Pedro (to take a while to get acclimated)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Everyone knows it by now: Pedro Alvarez has been called up and will start at third base tonight against the Chicago White Sox. The city is abuzz with excitement because of the potential this guy has. The ball flies off his bat when he makes contact. However, strikeouts have been a problem (68 Ks in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy Wednesday! Vuvuzelas, again</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Of course the vuvuzela has a twitter page:

And in more moral malarkey, this sign appeared yesterday during the Brazil-North Korea match (Brazil surprisingly only won 2-1), which apparently was attended by a lot of Chinese volunteers.

		<title>Happy Tuesday! Vuvuzela Edition</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The sound vuvuzelas make is annoying. Their constant, buzzing drone over the 90 minutes of World Cup games makes my ears bleed a little bit, and I&#8217;m just watching on television. I can&#8217;t imagine what it&#8217;s like in person. Anyway, the significant backlash against the noise-making instruments caused FIFA to issue a statement that the [...]]]></description>

		<title>How the Pirates &#8216;defy ordinary&#8217;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I hate to throw a baseball post in here amongst the anticipation of USA/England but as the residents Pirate expert I thought this was too interesting to pass up. I typically don&#8217;t like Pirates bashing because a lot of it, nay, most of it is illogical. However, when I saw this post on Sabernomics, (one [...]]]></description>
