ugh. double ugh.

Being a Pittsburgh Pirates fan is hard -- really, really hard. And while the season is just 18 games old, it's already reached the point of being excruciating, unbearable and any other hyperbolic sentiment that pretty much says "really sucks." A week ago, the Bucs were 7-6 and treading water, but they've since lost five straight, and it's been bad. Really bad. So bad that WHYGAVS already has had to post a state-of-the-team lament that points the (middle) finger squarely at former general manager Dave Littlefield and how badly he totally effed this franchise for years to come. My goodness, when does football season start?
