Some days it gets very difficult. Today was one of them.

It's made me kind of....grouchy. Grouchy makes me feisty. And when I've got my feisty socks on, I talk back. It's sort of a domino kind of of thing.

"Seahawk fans are starting to sound like the "stolen election" democrats."

No, the stolen election Republicans from the WA state governor's race. We like to play fair in politics and sports.

"Hinz Ward well deserves his MVP award."

They should have given it to the refs, but maybe they already got a reward instead of an award

>What iffy calls. Pittsburgh's MVP - - the refs<

I have been watching ESPN and FOX Sports Network. Post-Super Bowl shows. No one has said a word about poor officiating being the cause of the Steelers victory and the Seahawk's loss. I guess they don't consider it a factor in the Steelers victory at all. Yes, the Steelers victory.

Why don't you whiners get over it and stop whining? You lost. End of story.

Well said. We get put down for the liberal, Lenin statue loving, birkenstock radical lefties of Seattle. People need to realize there is a heck of a lot more going on here in Washington State than the city of Seattle.

Most people here are conservative, but when you have the likes of Ron Sims and Dean Logan in charge of counting the votes, we hardly have a chance, but nevertheless we press on.

So be it with the Seahawks.

The replay clearly showed that the ball never crossed over into touchdown territory and Rothlesberger knew it.

The look on Rothlesberger's face said it all.

You've had an election and a Super Bowl stolen out from under you in the course of 14 months.

Thank you!! It has been a rough time to be a conservative in this state.

It was the biggest piece of Ka Ka that I have ever seen for a NFL championship game. Yawn!!! and I am an AFC fan. The level of play in the NFL was down this year. The Rose Bowl was a 100 times better.

I don't live in Seattle, numby

Seattle fans are so foggy it just appears that way. And it is Gumby, not numby. Anyhow, just having a bit of fun and enjoying a victory I have been waiting for a long time. No really being a good sport about it, sorry. Best of luck....Next Season!

Thanks for understanding. Been a rough year for us. I want to make it clear I don't think that the Steelers cheated, because they didn't. It was just a rough game because the majority of calls went against us. We were not able to surmount that hurdle as well. It was a game. Congrats to the Steelers.

Thanks! And congrats on a good game. It was a good game and could have gone either way. It was a nail biter when you guys made that interception and ran it back. Steelers fans I was with were worried.

It was a good game! Thanks for being a sport!

I have a Blackwell bumper sticker on my car. And a Blackwell for Governor ping list, if you're interested.

There are a lot of conservatives around Oak Harbor and Bremerton.

Maybe the phanton holding call on the play preceding the steeler interception, or the non call the next play when Joey Porter horse collared Alexander. Or perhaps the non call when Big Ben called timeout when the clock was already at 0 and the next play he made the first down on a bootleg
...Everybody this morning is laughing about the terrible officiating and the concensus seems to be that the Steelers were on the receiving end of the vast majority of the calls. As for the clipping you refer to, that is laughable, Ben turned his back as the guy was blocking him

Did anyone else notice that in the clips leading up to the start of the game, included with past Super Bowl highlightsm there was the infamous one of slick willie wagging his finger and saying "I did not have sexual relations with that woman..."?
