Sunday Links and Videos

- Vote for Ben Roethlisberger against some guy named LeBron James in the Most Unstoppable Jock category of Spike TV's third annual Guys Choice Awards. Voting runs through May 29th and the Guys Choice Awards air on June 21st.

- Visit ThePensblog for your recap of game three against Carolina and all of your Pittsburgh Penguins needs.

- The guys at Benstonium continue to put out amazing video after amazing video. The latest is a 2009 Pittsburgh Penguins playoff tribute:



- ESPN an actual article about the Pirates. Granted the story is titled "The Pittsburgh Pirates near a record in mediocrity."

- DC Sports Bog's Dan Steinberg hosts a weekly discussion on The Washington Post. Here's one of his comments regarding Pittsburgh's recent domination against Washington teams:

This Pirates thing, though, is tough to take. After what happened with the Steelers and the Caps, we really needed some local team to defend D.C.'s pride against Western Penn. D.C. United and the Wizards don't get that chance. Heck, GW lost to Duquesne, and Georgetown lost, at home, by 16, to Pitt. Face it, we're a wholly owned subsidiary of Pittsburgh at this point.

The Pirates won three of four at Washington this week.


- Finally, here's something that has nothing to do with Pittsburgh sports. Here is my song of the week. (Month? Year? I don't do this very often.) That's Not My Name by The Ting Tings. Very catchy song! (h/t lacochran)

It invaded my brain, why shouldn't it take over yours, too? :)

It really is a catchy song. I actually feel somewhat cool in that I first heard this song probably a month ago. I'm so hip!
