The Official Super Bowl XLIII Thread

[Bassmanbruno]

Officials cost cards the game end of story. I'm disgusted. On to the vols can't way for Wednesday

Meh - I don't know. But I do know they play right before the half just effed them up big time. Also - Fitzgerald actually scored too soon I guess on that last TD. It's unfortunate that the Cardinal player fell down on Santonio Holmes long catch... would have been the game... and 3 Cardinals on Holmes on the game winning TD but none can break it up?

They also had 3-4 opportunities to sack Ben on that last drive and missed.

The lack of review seems so fishy to me. I would have loved to have seen Fitzgerald with one last chance to snag a hail mary.

it was a fumble so it doesn't matter. easy call.

You're not biased or anything, are you?

 

[chavisut]

Do yourself a favor everybody, and watch The Office.

Easy call? riiiight....

 

[duckman398686]

nvm

Arizona had over 100 more yards of offense. Without the defensive TD the Steelers lose. Additionally, the Steelers were aided by over 100 yards of penalties. I think the Steelers were a better team, but it's hard to say they outplayed anyone.

i hate when people try to pull big plays from games like they shouldn't count.

me?

 

[buckeyevol23]

Yeah, hopefully the Office will cheer me up. I hate the Steelers and Santonio Holmes is the only OSU player I don't like simply because he plays for them.

Did I say it shouldn't count? It was a one in 10 million play that allowed the Steelers to win. Hard to say they were clearly the better team.

 

[thagodfather]

yeah, that call cost zona the game. it would have taken a miracle for pittsburgh to stop the hail mary on the next play. :crazy:

 

[bop_rocco]

By better team, I hope you mean the team that had the Refs in their pocket. The Arizona Cardinals got screwed over big time tonight,.

Exactly. If I was on the cards team I would have punched a ref

 

[EBerryIsYourDad]

yeah, that call cost zona the game. it would have taken a miracle for pittsburgh to stop the hail mary on the next play. :crazy:

That's not the point. The point is that was obviously a reviewable play.

 

[thagodfather]

it's obvious that they were the better team. 27-23 says so. how is an interception a one in ten million play. i'd say the odds are much better.

 

[duckman398686]

yeah, that call cost zona the game. it would have taken a miracle for pittsburgh to stop the hail mary on the next play. :crazy:

no, but its still ridiculous not to give a team a fair chance to at least have a shot at a potential game winning pass

 

[JohnLange]

it's obvious that they were the better team. 27-23 says so. how is an interception a one in ten million play. i'd say the odds are much better.

Yeah, defensive linemen have 100 yard interception returns all the time.

 

[The Dude]

Ironic that you used the crazy face at the end. That's not what that poster was saying. At all.

 

[thagodfather]

Yeah, hopefully the Office will cheer me up. I hate the Steelers and Santonio Holmes is the only OSU player I don't like simply because he plays for them.

keep the hate coming. everybody hates the champions. how many super bowls has your team won?

 

[duckman398686]

lets break it up kids

 

[The Dude]

it's obvious that they were the better team. 27-23 says so. how is an interception a one in ten million play. i'd say the odds are much better.

You think the better team or athlete always wins? I disagree.

 

[thagodfather]

Yeah, defensive linemen have 100 yard interception returns all the time.

how ironic that it was the defensive mvp?

 

[JohnLange]

keep the hate coming. everybody hates the champions. how many super bowls has your team won?

How much PT did you get tonight?

 

[buckeyevol23]

keep the hate coming. everybody hates the champions. how many super bowls has your team won?

Is that you in your avatar? Your team won a super bowl and you have nothing better to do than gloat on a message board.

With Fitzgerald on the field, a 40 yard pass into the end zone would've been very interesting. Still, it doesn't matter now, but the lack of review was pathetic. They've showed it over and over on ESPN, and the ball was still in his hand until the end of his forward motion.

 

[JohnLange]

how ironic that it was the defensive mvp?

Wow.
