Growing up in the late 1980's there were three people I looked up to in sports. Andy Van Slyke, Rod Woodson, & Mario Lemieux. The other two have since retired leaving only Mario left over from my late childhood. Mario announced his retirement from the Penguins as a player this past week. It was a sad day for hockey in Pittsburgh, but it is time to see him sit down. Let Sidney and the kids play. Here is a pic of Mario and Ben sitting in Mario's box for the Pens first home game since being retired. Mario brought us the cities last championships to the burgh in the early 90's, hopefully Big Ben will being the first football championship home in the last 26 years.
