Penguins, still in Pittsburgh

This afternoon I received a text message from my sister Megs the minute the location of the new Pittsburgh slots casino was announced. One of the rejected bidders guarenteed to build a new arena for the Pittsburgh Penguins. Now without a definite arena plan, the Penguins remaining in Pittsburgh is up in the air.
So when I saw this painted on a moving van in my neighborhood, I wondered if they were jumping the gun.

i feel very very bad for mario...he just can't get a break. HE'S the one who has lived in pittsburgh for 20+ years, HE'S the one whose kids are enrolled in the area schools, HE'S the one who wants, more than anything, to keep the penguins in pittsburgh. i'm not clear on how the state gaming board came to this decision.
