:10—In case you missed it last week in your NEW PITTSBURGH COURIER the magnificent photo (above) of the Pittsburgh City League Legends was taken by Photographer Jason Cohn of Pittsburgh. Credit given where credit due.
:09—Yep you keep saying to yourself, Neal don’t know what he’s talkin’ about. Neal don’t know “A Black Bear from a Bare-Foot Blackman!” Well you’re wrong again Snookie. When the Celtics beat the Warriors at home it sent a clear message. Your run is done son!!!!!! Spurs win the West!
Bill Neal

:08—You really have to see Lavaughn “Meatball” Johnson in action to truly understand the effort of being in the sun too long. Or something. (And I don’t care how you spell his name!) But know this, “The Ball” AKA “The Donald” sat down…or stood up with the other legends of the game. Sir Eddie Jefferies, Roland Slade, John “Ringo” Saunders, Zik, Mike Rooker, Debbie Coleman and yours truly to celebrate the “40 Year” anniversary of the famous Connie Hawkins Summer Basketball League. And to select the All Time Connie Hawkins League Teams, final selection coming to you next week. And don’t start that whining and complaining about who’s who cause I gave you a chance to speak your piece and you didn’t, now SHUT UP!!!
:07—No little Johnny. To this day we don’t know what a “Ringo” is. Or for that matter what a “Bunny YES” is. And if there’s a Bunny YES is their a Bunny NO????

People want to know!
:06—The Pirates home opener sent a clear message to the world that the Pittsburgh Pirates are serious with the 4-1 win over St Louis. Let’s go Buc’s!!!!
:05—The Penguins win again. That’s all you need to know is I told ya to relax they would make the Playoffs.
:04—So the talk now is would the Bulls and Michael at their best beat today’s Golden State Warriors? Yes, like they stole something! Who’s stopping M.J.? Nobody, then or now. Who you putting on Scottie? No answer, all their perimeter players fall into the too short, to slow, not “long” enough category. They have no center big enough to watch Luke Longley or Bill Cartwright. No they weren’t Super talents but they were big, big, big. Bulls win in four.
:03—Oh and for the record, I have no problem with Steve Kerr going 3 for 3 against Curry. He may not win but he’ll be in the game. And has anybody given any thought what so ever as to what, who, or how you’re going to handle Dennis “The Worm” Rodman? C’mon man!
:02—While you’re at it: Magic and Showtime” win in four, the Celtics and Birdman win in four. And Isiah and the “Bad Boys” might beat ‘em down so bad they might win in three…they may not want to play four. I’m just sayin’!
:01—Do yourself a favor and lock yourself in for the 15th annual Pittsburgh and Allegheny County Public Service Awards Monday April 11, 6 p.m. at the Fabulous Savoy restaurant. Food, drinks, celebrities, VIPs and awards going to our public servants, those who protect and serve, heroes make the sunrise in the morning…heroes make the moonshine bright at night!”
:00—Game Over
