Pinsky from Salute Your Shorts was played by Blake Sennett (I think he went by Blake Soper on the show), who also played Joey the Rat on Boy Meets World and is the guitarist/sometimes singer for the indie band Rilo Kiley. Before Salute Your Shorts he had spots on several TV shows including The Wonder Years, and after SYS had a small stint on 3rd Rock From the Sun and a couple spots on a few other shows.
