  My 4th Birthday, Goodbye Yankee Stadium, Penn State Football and the New TV.com

  So what if it is a little late!

  On September 21, I celebraed my fourth birthday since becoming a member of TV.com in 2005. I have been busy lately with school and soccer so I haven't posted many blogs but I will try to create onhe when something new is going on.

  Coincidentally, the last game ever at Yankee Stadium was on my birthday. That make me feel even more special. There are so many Yankees that MLB fans will not forget including Mickey Mantle, Babe Ruth, Joe Dimaggio, Lou Gehrig, Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, and many more. R.I.P. great Yankee Stadium.

  The Penn State Nittany Lions have not been tested in their first 3 games of the season but they have looked like a national powerhouse and a team that could compete with the nation's best. Darryl Clark and Pat Devlin have looked great and Evan Royster and Stefan Green have looked fantastic, and ofcoure our receivers are great like always. Tonight is the White Out against Illinois which is a very key game for us this season. We Are...

  Lastly I would like to issue my comments on the New TV.com. First what I like: The new toolbar/header at the top of the page. I also like how the episde, cast, trivia, etc. header on the side of episode guide pages are. I also like the new what's on tonight schedule. What I don't like, the site is now a little slower, I can't rate episode other than every .5, I don't like the look of the episode guide themselves. They are too white and the episodes, cast, trivia, notes, etc. don't pop out to the eye like they used to. So it is a little rougher on the eyes if that sounds better to you. That's all for me today guys and girls, have a good one!

  Vacation and Family Reunion

  I'm back...again!

  I got back yesterday from my vacation in North Carolina with my aunt, uncle, and cousin. It was the right temperature every day of the week but there was quite a bit of rain. I missed the pool/beach three days because of rain, but it was still a nice week. When I got back to the burgh I went straight to my family reunion which I missed the first 3 hours of. But hey, fashionably late. The reunion was very small but still fun. After the reunion I went to dinner with my parents and uncle, aunt, and cousins, not the same ones I went to N.C. with.

  In other news, the Buccos traded Nady and Marte to the Yankees for 4 minor leaguers. The only high point for us is that our outfield is still loaded. Nady will be missed for his bat and arm, but we have Jason Michaels and our only good minor league prospect, Andrew McCutchen. However our pitching is good when our bats are not and are bats are good when our pitching is not. We lost four straight to Colorado before winning four straight then dropping the next three. We must win three of the next four with Colorado after being swept by them two series ago.

  That's all folks!

  I'm a Duke! Well, not really!

  Level 42

  With my 20+ submissions yesterday I finally arrived at level 42, General Lee. I did not watch the Dukes of Hazzard, but I know that General Lee is the car they drove on the show. Next up level 43. Wonder what that one is?

  Janne Pesonen

  The Penguins just picked up Finland's top scorer. He led his Finnish team to their fifth Championship last year and scored 70+ points in 50+ games. The only thing that might be a problem is having him play a full season. Coming from the Finnish League where a single season consists of 50+ games to the NHL where it is 82 games, that could be a minor problem. Evgeni Malkin had the same oriblem his first year but look how he came back the next. Led the Pens to the Stanley Cup while Sid was out with an injury.
