Good Sports

We know it’s not possible to be great at everything, and there are certainly times when you don’t want to show off.  Like Crosby rolling a gutter ball at the annual Pens & Pins charity event – that’s socially appropriate struggling.  He’s being a good sport.

Aw shucks.

Aw shucks.

Then watch James Neal have a go at the end of this video.  Haha, that’s not fake.

 

Maybe we could get Nisky to give him a lesson.  (Why does it seem appropriate that a guy from Minnesota would know how to bowl?  Is it an American thing?)

At least Nealmobile remembered the jerseys were yellow and not compatible with, say, a blue button-down.

The Pens also held their children’s practice event… so much cute.  Here’s the video, and if you don’t love Sidney Crosby for the look he gives the kid at 0:40 then I surrender.  [More video: CBS Pittsburgh]

Capitals @ Penguins tonight at 8PM on NBC Sports Network:  It’s my favorite and least favorite match-up at the same time!

    Heard on twitter that Sid was only allowed to bowl left-handed. The video seems to confirm that. Anyone know why?

      Because he probably bowls a 250 right-handed? Just guessing. 😉
