My mind tells me the Steelers, but my heart tells me the Cardinals.

Well that was a quick score, but now being challenged, but I don't see it.

So it stands, and the call is reversed.

That was a hell of a play to end the half.

Damn it...That is as big as it gets! I really want a Cardinals win, but that play swings it big time.

Awesome comeback so far.

Little more than 2 minutes to go.

Hell of a game.

Damn that game...I'm glad it became competitive in the end, but I was really hoping Arizona would pull it out. Oh well, whoever bet on Arizona + 7 came away happy.

Thanks KG.

Congrats to Jason for winning this year.

That really was a great Superbowl. Far exceeded my expectations.

Holmes floored the game with that catch. That's every kid's dream. And props to big ben for executing that crazy pass into triple-coverage. That was a PERFECT throw.

It was an exciting game, but lots of penalties and a little dirty play.


Anyway, I thought it was very appropriate ending given that the Steelers won numerous games within the last few minutes during regular season.

Arizona really let me down. I wanted them to win, but damn, it's like the players were playing for the first time and didn't know the rules. Who gives away that many penalties!?

The final quarter was really good though.. I enjoy watching American football but I've never seen an exciting match as this one.

in my opinion, Arizona should still be jubilant about their season, even if in the end they didn't win the big game, they still made it to the big game and overcame a lot of speculation, especially given how their past seasons have played out. hat's off to them, and the steelers.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em
 
Wow, I wish there was some historical breakdown of who wins this thing year by year because Im pretty sure I have won it at least 3 times now. Pittsburgh is now offically the best NFL franchise ever. Go Pittsburgh, I love that town.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em
 
I'm tired of the mfing AFC dominating the NFL.

I didn't have any expectations for Arizona, who played mostly a-little-above-average during the regular season.

But seriously, maybe NFC next year?

Well, the Giants just won last year...

I won it last year, or the year before. I forget which, I just remember that I won.
But maybe you blocked that from your memory. ;)

Anyways, I don't remember replying on this, and I'm far too lazy to check, so I'll just say that it was a really good game. The first half was a little slow for my liking - being used to watching CFL - but the 4th quarter, especially the last 8 or so minutes were really good. I wanted the Steelers to win so bad, and when Arizona got that touchdown my brother (who wanted the Cards to win) was jumping all around trying to rub it in my face up until he got shut up royally.

All in all, good game. Especially the HD Springsteen crotch-slide.

It was a good but surprising run, and imo the AFC was still dominate.

Football offseason is so sad, bring on Baseball the NBA blows...

Yeah, February is the dark ages of sports. I can get by with some college B-ball and some hockey, but it's pretty weak until baseball rolls around.
