She has a pretty damn great resume. I wonder who had this role in the past or if this is a new position.

 

[Sorry]

Well, I can't say this isn't a position of need in the organization given how frequent there are injuries. But honestly, I'd suggest hiring a witch doctor instead.

Teena Marie? I liked her ‘80s music but isn’t she dead?

That always cracked me up

It begs the question of which was true:

1. Did they misdiagnose it and told Sid he didn't have it so that's why he's like "I don't have the mumps"
2. Did they know his condition, but told Sid to not confirm it?

Either way is bizarre. Like what's the big deal if it was #2?

I wanna say that he tested negative (and was vaccinated as a child so they took that into consideration) and while he exhibited some mild symptoms in the face/neck area they chalked it up to a cross-check he took to the jaw a few days prior. He didn't blow up like a balloon until immediately after that practice. I think the doctor saw him on TV like that and went rushing to find him and get him under quarantine and re-tested. So, hard to fault the doctors there, but still a funny situation that we can look back and laugh at now.

Don't recall ever seeing this role on the front office page before.

This is cool and sounds like a smart move but two things:

1. That's not how you spell Tina

2. "Senior Vice President of Integrated Performance" sounds like a made up title to make some CEO's dipshit son feel better about the job he just fell into.

Looks like we need more staff for this Teena / Tina dilemma

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

And yet they won’t hire a new coach….

Way to go Teena

Teena Marie? I liked her ‘80s music but isn’t she dead?

Sheesh. This could have been a line in Jim Carroll's "People who died".

"In 2004, while Teena Marie was sleeping in a hotel room, a large picture frame fell and struck her on the head. The blow caused a serious concussion that caused momentary seizures for the rest of her life.[36]

On the afternoon of December 26, 2010, Teena Marie was found dead by her daughter, Alia Rose, in her Pasadena home.[37][38] On December 30, 2010, an autopsy was performed by the Los Angeles County coroner, who found no signs of apparent trauma or a discernible cause of death, and concluded she had died from natural causes.[38][39] She had suffered a generalized tonic–clonic seizure a month before.[40]"

PPG Paints Arena needs to become the Tina Arena

Man that's horrific

Definitely a Teena Marie knockoff…lol

Bet her glove hand is awful.

That was my thought too. Looks like the FO/owners might have felt that something was amiss with our medical/conditioning programs.

Anywho, she seems like a great hire. Just wish we hired her years ago!

No kidding. Who needs fiction when we have the real world?

That's unpossible!

I used to think Ralph Wiggum was an exaggeration and then I went into education...

No man nor woman can stop the Pens players from all of their injuries.

If such a person could lift that curse they'd be the highest paid individual in the organization.
