yah so im an idiot.
i guess my unconscious brain want the eagles there.
Seattle's entrance song to the Super Bowl is Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve. :-D
Aretha Franklin didn't seem to appreciate the up speed tempo of the National Anthem. They did a good job of hurrying her through it and keeping it under 5 minutes.
Aaron Neville looked completely disinterested once she started singing.
Someone shoot Harrison Ford in the face. Thanks.
This is like, a totally lame-o super bowl so far. And the commercials aren't any better.
The refs, as usual, suck.
Also, the Seahawks have had chances, and blown them. If they end up losing, they can look at the first quarter where they could have had a two-TD lead.
A sweet 2 min drill by Seattle at the end of the first. Now I know where Big Red gets it.

I hate the Steelers with a passion. After being out here at college for 3 1/2 years, I have to say that their fans are clueless, moronic, and just plain dumb. I hate having to hear them talk about how great their team is. It sickens me that Rothlesburger got a ring before McNabb, and that they had a lot of favorable calls.
The BALL NEVER CROSSED THE PLANE! It was clear in the replay. The line judge even signaled that he was stopped but then threw up his other arm because he was told that the Steelers needed to win because it would be a good story. Screw the NFL, screw the Steelers. Friggin' A-Holes.
If I hear one more dumbass Steelers fan much a zesty as comment I'm going to hurl.
Whats up, bro. Just punch a Steelers fan in the head tomorrow. Therapy for the soul. My godfather is a Steelers fan and he already called to talk shtein.
Of course they'll come back with the you're just jealous speech.
Their fans are a less annoying version of cowboys fans. Don't know squat about football and hide away and only come out to yap when their team is good.
Bad Calls Tonight:
1. The Big Ben TD. The ball never crossed the plane until he was already down. Even the replay farged it up
2. The holding call on Warricks punt return
3. The holding call on Stevens' catch that would've put them at the 1. Locklear did not hold Clark Haggans, boys and girls.
4. The call on the Hasselbeck fumble. Replay got it right, but he was clearly touched.
5. The Darrell Jackson catch that should've been a TD. He kicked the pylon. As ESPN pointed out they gave Mike Vick a TD on the exact same type of a play. Jacksons one foot was in and the other kicked the pylon. Should've been a TD.
6. Joey Porter horse collar tackle on Alexander...no call.
7. PI on Darrell Jackson in the end zone. Ticky tack bullshtein call.
8. 15 yard penalty on hasselbeck after he made the tackle on Ike Taylor's iNT return. How the hell can a tackler be called for BLOCKING BELOW THE WAIST WHEN HE IS NOW A DEFENDER?!?!
yes, thank you for pointing out the thread is in the wrong place, as to why you should probably read my first and only post in this thread. i'm an idiot (although alcohal induced) and really think the eagles should've been there to whoops the steelers asses.
what a farging piece of shtein yawn of a football game.. seriously.
i don't think there was one interesting point of this pathetic excuse of a football game.
again, thousands of apologies, and i hope this thread ends like the eagles season.. silently, hopeless, and pathetically.
i'm so glad roth lis "i have a humongous last name" won a ring before mcnabb.
seriously.
i'm glad beyond words.
so.. maybe next year and hsit.
P's. if i see hines ward smile one more time i might actually have to pick up a hobby.
it's this magnificent thing called "sniping". "sniping:.

You may be right, but I think anyone who is "100% sure" either way is a buffoon. It was as close as close gets.
The line judge should have went with his gut on the Rothlesburger dive. He originally singled that he was stopped, which would have been the right call. It looked, by the replay, that his elbow was pushed back before it broke, not to mention that he was down before it crossed
I was angry and drunk last night. The Steelers won on two big plays. Other than that they were lucky to have won. I think Seattle executed better most of the time, but they got ridiculous calls made against them and threw their momentum out of whack.

That being said, would you celebrate any less if the Eagles had won under these circumstances?
The Steelers played just well enough to win. They capitalized on every bad call.
The Seabags played just poorly enough to lose. Either of those missed field goals makes it a one score game. And after all the trash talk, you'd have thought Stevens would catch some of those balls thrown his way.

Quote from: Sun_Mo on February 06, 2006, 12:01:38 PM

i'll agree with others in saying i have never seen a "defender" called for an illegal block when attempting to make a tackle. (in reference to the penalty on hasselbeck tackling taylor on his INT). i honestly was completely baffled by that, and in turn began to question the unbiasedness of NFL officiating. when has a defender ever blocked anyone? they dont block, they get blocked.
if that were the case, roethlisberger should have had it called on him as well in the colts game.
As was stated in game, it is legal to chop the ball carrier. The "interpretation" was that Hasslebeck cut the blocker next to the ball carrier, which is illegal.
yea im going to chime in on the horrible calls made sunday. just plain bad! i can't believe some of the calls that were made.
the low block call was a bad call, but you see bad calls made in every game. why would the Super Bowl be any different?
stupid story...
after the game last night i was flipping channels around and came across your normal QVC pimping the suberbowl stuff, and they were selling the tshirts and sweat shirts and jackets for the steelers...and the host says, all XXL sizes are sold out for the shirts and jackets.
stupid fatass steeler fans.
I need some help for a contest I was running. Can somebody tell me:
Which team got the 1st penalty?
Which team got the 1st sack?
thanks.
Stillers got the first sack. I think the first penalty was a false start by TE Miller of the Stillers.
steelers got first penalty, false start.
first sack was also steelers. can't remember who it was?
thanks yo.
I turned my phone off last night so I didn't have to hear from my Steeler-fan friends. Surprisingly, I got this e-mail today:
QuoteBig Ben played horribly. The refs made some questionable calls in the Steeler's favor. Except for Parker's 75 yard TD run, Seattle shut down our running game. They beat us in time of possession and total yards gained.
We're lucky to have won. I happy, of course, but it feels a little hollow.
Makes me wonder how much I would have enjoyed this if it was an Eagles win, as it would always be tainted by controversy.

You may be right, but I think anyone who is "100% sure" either way is a buffoon. It was as close as close gets.
My initial thought watching the play live was that he didn't get it and it looked like the linesman was going to signal him down. As he was running towards the pile he then signaled touchdown.
IMO, he signaled TD when Rothlisburger placed the ball in the endzone after he was down. And you could clearly see that on the replay. The ball came loose for a second from under Roth and then he pushed it across the goal line.
I think that regardless of what the call was on the field, the ref got the replay right by not overturning it. There simply wasn't enough visual evidence to swing his decision either way. I think that's one of the few things that he got right.
who punted 1st?

QuoteRolling Stones: Super Bowl censorship was "absolutely ridiculous"
NEW YORK - Nobody turns off the microphone on Mick Jagger without a fight.
Advertisment
Censorship of their songs during the Super Bowl halftime show was "absolutely ridiculous and completely unnecessary," the Rolling Stones said through a spokeswoman on Tuesday.
The NFL, which produced the show seen on ABC Sunday night, silenced Jagger's microphone during sexually suggestive passages of two of the three songs the band performed before an audience of 90 million television viewers.
The NFL, still nervous over the Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction two years ago at the Super Bowl, has said it wanted to ensure family entertainment at the game.
"The band was aware of our plan to simply lower Mick's mike at the appropriate moments," said NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy. "It was discussed with the group last week prior to the Super Bowl."
He declined further comment on the Stones' statement.
The band may have known about it, but that doesn't mean they liked it, spokeswoman Fran Curtis said. Jagger sang the full lyrics during his performance, she said.
In "Start Me Up," the show's editors silenced one word close to the song's end, a reference to a woman so sexy she could arouse a dead man. The lyrics for "Rough Justice" included a synonym for rooster that was removed.
The Stones also performed "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction," but the lyric "I can't get no girlie action" made it through unscathed.
The incident was reminiscent of the band's performance on "The Ed Sullivan Show" in 1967, when the host demanded the Stones change the lyrics to "Let's Spend the Night Together." As ordered, Jagger sang "let's spend some time together," but he rolled his eyes for effect.
hey Mick, shut up, you're a farging sellout and you always have been. you knew the deal and are trying to save face by bitching about it now.
