I dont think basketball would work here… Minor league or whatever its called never worked here… but maybe NBA would be different. Im not a huge NBA fan, i love high school and college ball its so much better. I just want the Pens to stay, I remember when I was little watchin them win the Cups and seein the entires city go nuts, like when the Steelers won the superbowl last year. I just hate to see them go, theres so much history here, the reason why I wouldnt want to see any of our teams leave, no matter how bad they are.
