jay16509 Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 I have waited a long time for this day. My beloved Buccos with a record over .500 in the middle of June. I have been a Pirates fan for years. I was 6 when they won the World Series in 79, so I barely remember that team, but I remember rooting big time for Bill Madlock in the early 80s, stuck with them as a fan in the 80's when they had guys like Sammy Khalifa at shortstop. Then came the early 90's with players like Bell, Bonilla, Van Slyke, Bonds, Drabek, etc. I loved those teams, and loved having Jim Leyland as manager. I actually cried when my Buccos lost the NLCS to the Braves in 92. Supported these guys in the 90's and still support them today. Go Bucs!!!!

kjuggs Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Good to see the Bucs playing competitive/WINNING baseball for the 1st since the old Bonds/Bonilla/Van Slyke/Drabek days! Even more shocking is the NL East- Mets were looking to go over .500 until they balked that game away last night, and the even the Nats are red hot. I have yet to get to PNC park, but I'd love to see that stadium in person.

kjuggs Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Fortunately my brother just so happens to live in Pittsburgh now (transplanted Philly native), so that will make things easy once I get up there when I take leave.

jay16509 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Pirates tied for first place after the All Star Break! Awesomeness! It has been a long road, but this gives me some hope that we are finally starting to get our act together. Let's go Buccos!
