It was over from the very first yellow flag. Stealer, indeed. Sad to see refs changing games in professional sports. It's a sign of the times. Just another example of those with control going to extraordinary measures to make certain their interests are protected. Small market teams are bad for leagues. The refs are part of the league and I'm sure, at the very least implicitly, they firmly understand what outcome serves them best. take it like a man - loser. :) Thank God the NFL declared it wouldn't expand to Canada. http://www.herald.ns.ca/Sports/482107.html why would they want to? dont you guys play football with hockey pucks? Hah! It's a well known fact that our 'balls' are bigger than yours! http://www.cfl.ca/ |

The difference is close to two feet (the width of the painted line, plus the length of the ball). FWIW, it looked like a touchdown to me. |

Pittsburgh did not play anywhere close to championship caliber. I don't think even a true Steelers fan could be proud of that win. |

Almost to a man, the Seahawks pointed the blame finger at themselves for converting only one of three red zone attempts (when they had been the best in the league in that area, scoring a touchdown on 71.7 percent of their trips inside the 20-yard line); for allowing Ben Roethlisberger to improvise and complete a 37-yard pass to game MVP Hines Ward to the 1; for giving up a 75-yard touchdown run to Willie Parker; and for getting beaten by a trick play on Antwaan Randle El's pass to fellow receiver Ward for a touchdown, a first in Super Bowl history. If you read between the lines, though, they pretty much spelled out in bold letters that they had plenty of help in handing Pittsburgh its fifth Lombardi Trophy. ------------------------------------ loser. :) Pfffffttttt. **** you too, weenner. Why don't you quote the whole article? I don't disagree with anything Michael Smith said. The Seahawks clearly didn't play well enough to overcome both Pittsburgh and the refs. Stevens and Josh Brown both had off days. Bad choice of day to be off. That said, no ref in a professional sport should change the outcome of a game. As you have said yourself, the refs sucked in a big way and, as you may have noticed, they happened to suck 7:3 against Seattle, including two touchdowns and a difference of 11 points. Go plant some ****in' crops for the foodbank in all that rich goddam CT soil and stop bothering those of us who want to wallow. jps |

But I don't think the pass interference call should have been made, nor the "illegal block"......I still wonder how one make an illegal block when they are on defense and trying to make a tackle. Didn't see the hold, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen. I still am in amazement about the Seahawks two minute drills. |

The Seahawks had a good chance to win this thing, because Pittsburgh was so lame. Did the Steelers get more than one or two first downs in the entire first half? If Seattle had palyed up to its potential, it could have prevailed against the team the Steelers put on the field yesterday, obviously biased referees or not. Seattle did not. If both teams had brought their best stuff (and neither did), it would have been interesting to see whether the Seahawks could beat a team with a few extra men on the field. :-) If the receiver could have caught the balls right to him, they may have scored more. |
