Penguins GM backs Sid the Kid on Letterman snub



BOCA RATON, Fla. (AP) - Hey, go easy on Sidney Crosby. At least
that's the message from Pittsburgh Penguins general manager Ray
Shero.
     Crosby recently passed on an invitation to appear on the "The
Late Show with David Letterman" and has been taking some criticism
for the snub.
     The NHL superstar led Canada to the Olympic gold medal with an
overtime goal against the United States. Crosby was invited to read
Letterman's Top 10 list on March 4 when the Penguins were in New
York to play the Rangers.
     Shero came to the defense of his team's captain. He says it
should be noted how much traveling and playing Crosby has done
since the Olympics and the many interviews he's had.
