SUPER BOWL #6 FOR THE STILLERS!

[NellyLunatic1980]

27-23 is the final score.

Nice shots of Peababe's Football Baby Boy a few seconds ago.

MVP announcement is coming up. Will it be Roethlisberger, Harrison, or Holmes?

After that 100-yd interception return for TD, I'll be surprised if Harrison doesn't get the MVP.

[peacock2121]

It'll be Holmes, I think.

[peacock2121]

I thought I was going to throw up.

[peacock2121]

My normal heart resting heart rate is in the high 40s. I took it when we had less than 60 seconds left in the game. It was 84.

WHAT A GAME!!!!!!!!!



Whew!

I thought we had it lost three times! And won three times! What a game!

[SportsFan68]

I think it will be Holmes too.

[NellyLunatic1980]

Now that I think about it, Harrison committed that dick move in the fourth quarter that led to the Stillers starting on their own 1-yd line, thereby leading to a safety.

Not exactly MVP material.

It'll probably be Holmes, but still should be Harrison. Without that interception and TD run, the Steelers woulda been toast.

[o-man]

WHAT A GAME!!!!!!!!!

Agreed! All you can hope for is a game that has some drama left in it in the last 2 minutes. Plenty of uncertainty well into the last minute, this one.

'gratz to the Stillers & their legion of fanz...

God, Joe Namath is old.

[SportsFan68]

God, Joe Namath is old.

He's been rode hard and put up wet. I congratulate him on making it into recovery from alcohol addiction. If I recall correctly, he's been sober for more than a year now.

[NellyLunatic1980]

Yep, Holmes wins it.

[SportsFan68]

YAY HOLMES!!!!!!!!!!!


I admit, I wouldn't have given it to Harrison after that lame penalty.

I bet Roethlishamberger was pretty high up in contention.

I bet Harrison was feeling horrible there for a bit.

too bad none of the Steelers gave props to the Cardinals when they went to the mike. that would have been classy.

What a great game.

[SportsFan68]

A nice profitable weekend for us -- we scalped the hottest tickets in town for $200 to the good, and SteelersFan won $150 in pools with a $37 outlay. I lost $2.00 -- I gave a friend the Cards and 6.

I agree that it was a dick move. But if he didn't get that penalty, they would have had the ball on the 2.

I tivo'd the game so I could skip all the commercials. I have one rules-type question. The Steelers kickoff that ended up going through the end zone and was a touchback.

Why wasn't it a safety? It looked like it touched somebody on its way. I thought the rule was that you could only down the ball (or let it go through) for a touchback if your team hadn't already touched the ball outside the end zone.

Congrats to the Steelers and their fans but I gotta ask:

A) How was James Harrison not ejected?

B) How was that last play not reviewed?

Not getting it, but otherwise congratulations it made for a helluva fun game to watch...I gotta get home now....early class tomorrow...

I think Harrison shoulda been ejected too.

It was reviewed -- one of the announcers mentioned it. My guess is, time was so short that some PTB considered the announcement an unnecessary delay.

I doubt it would have been overturned, but there is no excuse for there not being a review of the final Cardinals' offensive play.

SteelersFan isn't an NFL ref, nor does he play one on TV -- he says it doesn't matter. Once it's through the end zone, it's a touchback if it was on the kickoff.

[SportsFan68]

I think Harrison shoulda been ejected too.

OTOH, maybe they were loath to eject the person who at that point had the play of the game.

The touch was officially a 'muff'. In other words he never had possession. On a kickoff, a muff does not affect status of the ball.

On a punt however, it is a different story.
