I have to apologize to all FReepers, because I mistook the Robot "husband" in the Hummer commercial as the baby in one of the shots and thought that the little Hummer "truck" was a plaything they were giving the baby.

The Hummer WAS the baby, I now realize. Mea culpa.

The Pats get him at Foxboro again next year. As long as they're (knock on wood) healthy I can't wait!

True but still not as good as they have been. The FedEx one was the only one I liked.

Watchmen won't make a great movies. Too long with too many individual stories to tell.

Which I said back in week 5, that they hadn't played anybody and wouldn't be playing much of anybody all season (though in the end they did play most of the AC playoff teams, problem is outside of that group they mostly played the Texans).

The media didn't pick up on that because they worship Manning and have east coast bias. Everybody knows it and half the sports press even admits it.

Right neither team played their #1s so who won and who didn't is completely immaterial.

Panthers had enough running to force defense to respect the run. Once Goings went down the coaching decision against the Panthers was pretty easy, 3 guys on Smith the other 8 go after Jake, any idiot could have shut down the Panthers. Like I said the Bears SHOULD have beat the Panthers except they got cocky and decided to single cover Smith with a rookie, being smarter than Lovie after than pathetic performance isn't going to garner a team much credit.

When a QB is on a team with the league MVP RB he's not going to get much credit. And Matt wasn't all that good for a few years which gave him a reputation of lameness (kind of like Jake Plummer, who did really well until the conference finals). IMHO it's all about the Ws not the credit. Every year there's 3 or 4 players who get less credit than they deserve, and 3 or 4 that get much more credit than they deserve, they're all making tons of money I don't worry about it too much.

Missed the Yosemite Sam Honda ad, while I was out of the room with a food malfunction. Only missed two commercial segments, towards the end, but that was in one of them.

I didn't get as much out of the FedEx cavemen as most others did. They could've done the cavelanguage better, I think.

That was the moment I knew the refs were favoring a team.

They make the head ref whose stats show he has the lowest amount of overturned calls in instant replay as the lead for the superbowl, when instant replay was overturning bad calls by refs all season long and overturning the right calls?
Talk about setting up a cluterf#$% of a superbowl.

The call that Rothliesburger scored when he clearly was tackled with the ball behind the endzone and shoved it across the goal line after tackle was a discrace to the concept they have instant replay.

The refs saying darrel jackson pushed off to cancel out a TD was equally bad. Even Madden, who was licking the Steelers butt all night long, came out and said it was a bad call after the halftime replays.

The Burger King ad with the Whopperettes was just creepy.

I'll never eat at Burger King again until they stop it with the creepy King stuff.

I know the one team that won't win jack next year. THE BROWNS!!!!!Was a fan till the team left in '95. Still amazes me how the fans in this town filled the new stadium in '99, knowing the RAVENS reap the financial benefits therein.

Always a fan of the fish(Saban has them pointed in the right direction), and the Pack(Brett retire now and let the rebuilding begin). These teams will play n a Super Bowl before the Browns EVER will.

As the Steelers' plane flies over Cleveland, air traffic control will pick up the laughter as the Champs know that Cleveland is the whipping boys of the NFL.

... My point is that if those cheap calls hadn't gone against them they wouldn't have been down by 18 points; they would have either been ahead or down by four. ...

Your right Steve, the Steelers fans are just showing their character. A pretend win is more important than a real win.

I couldn't care for either team myself but ABC has ruined the sport with their control of the games. They think woman won't watch if there is not drama, so they manufacture it. Can't let messy competition get in the way of the story they are creating.

Don't worry, they won't criticize their performance either because in 3 days no one will remember that the player and team's performance was secondary to what they wanted.

A cat already adopted me, though it lives outside the house or under a room of the house.

She just showed up one day with a menu of what she preferred to eat.

At this point she thinks my little dog is her son, being she beats up 20 pound dogs I am glad she adopted him.

The dog is going ape over this Puppy Bowl 2. Very original.

Sorry Chief, you are wrong. The Steelers won, they were not a "FAR superior" team by any stretch. But then, you're an airedale and your disorientation is understandable. 8^) ETCS/SS Tull

BTW. See you next year in Foxboro.

Well at least you have a good coach again. Now you just need to get him the right players.

I posted a picture of a crybaby. Your post filled in the paranoia and fake accusations.

I don't know or care which team you support...On this game, you're a crybaby.
