Pittsburgh, I am in need of suggestions.

    Primanti's is "moronic"?
    Oh, that merits an explanation.

    The man's wife couldn't possibly enjoy a baseball game?
    I'd like to hear more about that one, too.

    As well me.
    Maybe she likes baseball?

    The only sure thing so far on this thread is Pastor going to Piper's for the SPL final.

    Nah. Only the wives of yinzers like baseball. ::)

    As for you baseball fans, grow up, expand your horizons. Don't be a sportswriting geek your whole life for Christ's sake.

    Primanti Brothers sucks. Overrated by quaint yinzers, like a Donnie Iris song. Any other explanations necessary for you simpletons?

    Yeah, actually. You really didn't tell us anything.

    Do I really need to explain a geek with a dream of watching baseball on his vacation? Or putting cole slaw and fries on your sandwich because it's a "Pittsburgh thing." It sucks. That's all you need to know.

    And I love how the female losers working sports desks around the nation take this personally. Typical. I haven't missed a thing with you pussies.

    I needed some new sidesaddle/sig material. Thanks.

    Overrated and moronic -- I'd consider those words to be distinctly different.
    (Is that clear enough for you, Danny?)
    It's hard for a sandwich to be "moronic."
    It'd be silly to say the Primanti's folks are moronic, since they've now got 15 or 16 restaurants.
    Overrated? It beats the bejeezus out of Cincinnati chili. It certainly has more flair than In-N-Out burger, and it's at least as appetizing. It's better than the standard Cheez-Whiz philly cheesesteak.
    As low-rent regional cuisine goes, I'd say it ranks pretty high.
    So there.

    Nicely done. Glad somebody found something useful in danny boy's sad little rants.

    I'd just like to thank the arbiter of suckiness for stopping by.

    Are you available for critiquing my wardrobe, the flowers in my garden and lunch choice?
