Where I belong.
I'm going with the Steelers for all of the important reasons. Franco Harris, Mike Tomlin, and much of the Rooney family worked and campaigned for Barack Obama in Pennsylvania this past year. The Cardinals, as we know, make their home in Arizona. 'nuf ced.

The more important question, however, is what songs will The Boss play during his 12 minute half-time show? I'm going with Born to Run, The Rising, and Working on a Dream.

I'm going with the Steelers and really hope that the game doesn't turn into a defensive snooze fest.

I hope that the Boss plays Rosalita and gives the big man Clarence Clemons his time to shine!

Amazing Finish!!!

Yaaaahooooo all,

Well, the Steelers are not my team at all, but I was rooting for them. What an amazing finish, not to mention Pittsburgh had to do it after a Safety against them. There were too many damn penalties, and some of them were just bad calls on both sides. But, it was a good game anyway. Congrats Steelers.

Not to worry Merlot: Doc is a Leafs fan so he's used to backing a losing team. If Arizona had won the shock might have killed the poor guy.

If Doc took the Cards and the 6.5 points then he's $500 richer! Good job Doc.

Overall, a great game, would've liked to see the Cards pull it out but the Steelers made the plays in the end to finish the game. It's a shame when the officials decide the outcome of games, put the f'n whistles away unless it's something blatant.

Also, I don't like the Steelers. They're a bunch of cocky and dirty bastards, just look at the way #92 James Harrison was literally punching one of the Cardinal players while he was down. Disgusting! :mad:

Lastly...Jennifer Hudson sang an absolutely amazing National Anthem, her first appearance since the murder of her mother, brother and nephew and the Boss put on a great halftime show!!

Integrity? maybe you missed the cowardly closeline/punch/takedown of that Cardinals player as he was already down........ i agree with Special K, DISGUSTING!

I wouldn't expect anything less from a former Pennsylvanian Igna. No worries, he's talking out his ass and it's quite obvious.

Well, the clear winner last night was The Boss. I nailed two of his playlist, but take no credit as both Born to Run and Working on a Dream were obvious. Tenth Avenue Freezeout was a good choice; Glory Days, the words changed a bit, was quite a surprise. Did you ever see one man having so much fun?

He's in Toronto in May, by the way. I'll probably attend the show unless he goes to Mtl. Saw him twice in the past few years & he remains (along with the E-Street Band) the top musical act i've ever seen live, including U2 & AC/DC. By the way, i was shocked at Steve Van Zandt weight gain! :eek:
FYI, Doc, tickets for TO go on sale Friday morning, and, like a Joe.T prediction, they won't last long.

Hello all,

Doc Holliday said:
Yep, i won $500 since the Cards beat the spread!! Fantastic!!! :D :D

Congrats Doc. I wasn't sure what the points were, though almost definitely more than 4.

Six Superbowls out of 43, 2 of the last 4. Ben will get his third soon I believe. Especially now that the Pats have been exposed as fraud, perhaps Goodell will confiscate a trophy or 2 from them.

LOL...why a guy has to celebrate a great victory by displaying utter stupidity makes no sense Mr. No-Class. Don't forget the Seahawks were robbed of two touchdowns by atrocious game-killing phantom penalties in your gift 5th Super Bowl victory. You should be celebrating not WHINING about all the times the Patriots ran over your team to win their CHAMPIONSHIPS.

It was despicable, and deserves some sort of punitive action by the league. I have rarely seen anything so far beyond respectable play and so totally unnecessary. Just despicable!

AGREED! After making such a great run it was nothing less than savage. Only a thug could call that integrity.

Exactly where he left his class, if there was any.

PLAY OF THE GAME?????:

The Harrison run and interception was incredible. But the player who turned it into a touchdown wasn't one of the 22 legitimately in the play. ESPN ran a the film of the touchdown run several times showing some fool Cardinal, not in the game getting in the way of Larry Fitzgerald, one of two eventual tacklers. Instead of being well back from the sideline this Cardinal was right up on it and Fitzgerald ran right into him, giving Harrison about an extra 5 yards to run. Had the fool been back with every other Cardinal not in the play there would have been no touchdown...the key to the Steeler's momentum, and obviously the points needed to win.

THE REAL MVP:

In my view, it was Roethlisberger. How did Santonio Holmes get the ball...Roelisberger got it there. Yeah, that sounds trite. But for most of the game, and nearly every play of the last drive, Roethlisberger had to make fantastic escapes and throws throughout the game against a surprisingly hard charging Cardinals defense. I will never call him one of the greatest quarterbacks, but his athleticism and ability to throw despite many pocket breakdowns gave Holmes and everyone else the chance to catch the ball and to be in field position to win the game.

Bravo! It was great to see The Boss out there last night; the perfect compliment to the game.

Doc, don't count your chickens before they've hatched. Maybe the person(s) you bet with will suddenly find religion...... :rolleyes:

Interesting analysis, but I have watched the 05 Superbowl many times, and the officiating was not great, but not the difference in the game, despite what Holmgren thinks.
Perhaps I am annoyed that the Faketriots won a few Superbowls through the Steelers and Heinz Field, especially when the other coach was filming the signals, the walk throughs, maybe practices of opponents, c'mon now, that is really shady, Its worse than PEDs, stickum, or any on-field cheating, Bellichek stole the answers to all of the tests, thats the key to his success, he was no genius in Cleveland, or NY, in fact he was reviled. Players are coming forward with observations like the Pats DEF was in their huddle and knew every call. What has his weeble wobble coordinating tandem done since they left NE Pats, hmmmm.... Crennel ran the Browns back into the ground, while Weiss has embarassed the once proudest football school in the world, you know, those guys were so used to just having the opponents game plan handed to them before the game, that they spent all their time at the pre-game spread.

Back to defending my current Steelers, I have not noticed the interference with Fitzgerald yet, nor have I seen the "cheapshot" since.... I will examine the game when I get back to Montreal, where it should be safely DVRed. (as i am writing this, saw the replay, no interference, sorry dude)

Perhaps Ben deserved MVP, not sure who decides that, Holmes had a great game, made extremely important catches all night, and had one called back, either guy could have won it, Harrison also a candidate in my opinion. Remember Harrison won the NFL MVP Award, a guy from Kent, cut 3 times by the Steelers, is now the owner of sacks in a season for the steelers at 16, thats huge if you have any clue how many supremely gifted linebackers have been through Pittsburgh. Lambert, Ham, LLoyd, Greene, Porter, Kirkland, Bell... so many I cant remember, and now this guy is immortalized like Franco and Lynn. The best backer in the league made the biggest play at the biggest moment.

OK, now I am serious, Ben is not just among the elite QBs, he is the best QB in the league right now, yeah Brees or Gayton Manning might have more yards, all of which come on the golf course in the post season, whatever, the position is about winning, and that is all this kid has done since 2004, Ben does NOT have a weakness, he is even fast, and is usually around 2nd in the league in rush yrds for QB, he may have the strongest arm in the NFL, he is a modern day John Elway, throws on the run the exact same way, and now owns as many rings (for now). Brady or P manning cant throw on the run. believe it or not, Ben reminds me of Doug Flutie at times, I wish Flutie would have had his shot at starting in the NFL 10-15 consecutive seasons, he probably would have won a ring. Most importantly, he has the respect of his teammates more than most, the combo of Rooney - Tomlin - Lebeau - Ward - Roethlisberger - Polamalu - Harrison - forms the best team in the league, and "maybe" the best in history considering the 08 Steeler schedule was the most difficult in NFL history!, that is a fact.

Actually if I was a gambling man(which I am not, religious convictions) I would take Pittsburgh to win but not to cover the 7 point spread, I would stay away from making any wagers with the spread on this one.:)

So there's my pick boys Pittsburgh straight up.

Now how about a prediction chicken boy(Merlot) or are you gonna wait till after the game to gloat on how you predicted the winner.:rolleyes:

Boy was I ever right, I could have made a ton of money but I would have committed a sin, god is great!!!.
