If this were toned down and had some of the hysteria removed it would still be over the top.
Boo Hoo!
I thought there were some real bad calls in the game.
What do you think?
I was rooting for the Steelers but the Seahawks were robbed.
Unhappy with the outcome of the game, are we?
What a bunch of sour grapes! Have an Iron City beer and mellow out!
I quit watching pro basketball for the same reasons about 15 years ago. I'm getting that same disgust with pro football. And to boot, this years commercials were, well, just commercials.
It's a game. Get over it.
Apparently pro football is trying to rise to the level of pro baseball in irrelevance.
The Refs are going to Disneyland!!
I had no dog in the fight at all. Nor any $$$ on the game.
I just don't like a team having to beat both their opponenets AND the referees.
I said the same thing when the zebras were trying to give the Divisional game to the Colts.
I'm glad the Steelers won, but I thought the officiating was tilted in their favor too.
Sometimes you wonder if the whole thing isn't rigged.
I think he's right. The author is Jason Whitlock at the Kansas City Star.
The Hasselback call was ridiculous.
This tripe was written by an alleged sports reporter named Jason Whitlock of the Kansas City (Red) Star. Jason had predicted a Seahawks win, and was probably hyperventilating when the Hawks went up early, and were moving the ball well. He wuz robbed.
No wonder
I was also rooting for the Steelers and cringed at a few calls. Roethlisberger got the touchdown, though.
Hasselbeck. And I was betting on Pittsburgh.
