You’ll know the Pitt football program has made major strides when you don’t hear a woman calling play-by-play for its games.

Sorry, I hit the mute button today as soon as I heard a female voice doing the play-by-play.

I don’t know her name and the few times I’ve forced myself to listen, she sounds like she does a good enough job.

I would rather have either Sarah Palin or Michelle Bachman in the White House than Barack Obama, but, call me a sexist pig, if you’d like, I just don’t want to hear a female voice describing a football game.

ESPN/ABC is making millions of dollars on the Little League World Series.

The players are making nothing.

Is there something wrong with that picture?

Dan Wetzel of Yahoo Sports thinks there is.

He say Little League players should be paid.

I have a problem with kids being over-organized and parents placing a little too much emphasis on organized sports a little too early but, if they are the reason for ABC/ESPN making millions of dollars, it’s not that outrageous to suggest that they get a piece of the pie.

Is it?

According to Buster Olney of ESPN, there are serious discussions going on about realigning Major League Baseball.

This would be a really interesting story if Pittsburgh had a real Major League Baseball team.

Let me know when they have a serious discussion about instituting a salary cap.
