@2-0-Sixx - I know how people from Seattle must feel. I felt that way during superbowl XXX against Dallas when Neil O'Donnell pretty much handed the game to the Cowboys. I feel like its a Superbowl that we should have won and to this day I hate the Cowboys. But I also see the Cowboy's side of it, they capitalized on the plays and did what they needed to in order to win. In the same token, I did go back and watch the replays of the Steelers game because in now way do I want the only Superbowl win my generation has seen to be handed to me. And I really felt like yeah, there were some bad calls, but I also feel like the Steelers did what they needed to in order to win. Yeah it was sloppy, but they capitalized on stuff. I feel like Roethlisberger crossed the plane and that was a legitimate touchdown. I think we won. And I know what its like to be screwed by the refs (check the Steelers/Colts game) but we did what we needed to in order to win. And aslo, the calls that the refs made weren't outright terrible calls, they were questionable. The Seattle fans saw the side they wanted to see, as did the Steelers fans. This is just the weeeeeeed talkin though.

It's all good comrade, I'm not blaming the steelers fans or the steelers themselves. They kept playing the game, it's not like they should have called a timeout and said "Hey, you just gave us a favorable call that shouldn't have been! Give the ball back to Seattle!"
I blame it on the refs. I say there were several horrible calls (the Roethlisberger crossing the goal line was questionable, the others were horrible!) that completely changed the course of the game.
But that’s the way the game works sometimes. All I can hope is Seattle makes it again this year and wins (assuming of course da bears don’t go undefeated and allow a total of zero points for the entire season, and average a total of 42 points scored a game, by the Defense, as I predict them to do).
