I can't answer that. IF he wasn't ready, why would he be out there. He had to use his weapons to take the focus off of Alexander. Has JS caught those balls, Alexander would've gone for 125 in the game. Hbeck tried to go to everyone and he used his own legs on occasion with effectiveness. Hasselbeck was ready for prime time in my opinion. Couple of bad tosses, but that can be expected against that defense and during the big one. Seattle made Pittsburgh's defense look average....soemthing high powered Indy, Denver and Cinci could not do. Great game by Seattle,...ball did not bounce there way.
Starts out innocently enough....but how does the lady's blouse get unbuttoned and her skirt get hiked up to her waist, just by some air-josleing.....Hmmmmmm, well they made their point, and got a lot of people talking about it.......
You may have to hit the go button ( next to the address ) with your mouse again...twice.
It may take a minute to load.
Mack Strong is going to probowl and will be around for a few more years.
Alexanders options would be severly limited on what teams he could sign with, for the money he will command. LT's San Diego contract will be the benchmark and he will end up signing with Seattle for something similar.
The Seahawks will be back and strong next year. As long as Holgrem doesn't have a breakdown and decide to leave. I think he's happy living in Seattle and has built something special.
Its hitting Seattle hard that they didn't win the superbowl. We've been fighting forever to get there, but the town will get over it.
Sounds like a possibly high incentive here.
Means mine be getting to the line judge.
Steelers WIN! 26 years of waiting is over
Congrats to Bill Cowher, a Hall Of Fame coach got his championship
Congrats to Jerome Bettis, a Hall of Fame Champion gets his HS # retired, the key to a bankrupt city, and his championship in his home town.
Congrats to Heinz Ward, the most complete receiver in the game gets a well deserved MVP.
Congrats to Ben Roetheisberger, the youngest QB to ever win.
Congrats to the Steeler D, held the best 5 teams in 2005 football to 71 points and went 5-0 against them.
The Steelers had to win 8 straight and beat the best 5 teams and Minnesota on the road on a 6 game win streak.
Looks like someone may have gotten to the officials.
Ward is the classiest, most selfless player on the team. A top receiver without the ego of Owens, Moss, Johnson and others.
I didn't see Streaker Lamb or magic Fridge. Where is
the website that reruns the commercials? I could
watch all day. Love Spike TV commercials. Well...
I don't like College Girls gone wild. I switch the
channel on that one. But Spike is pretty funny.
After a few drives, I wanted to see Seattle win. They came prepared and were executing better than expected. A couple of breaks and they would've won big.
No way to tell what will happen next year. They are a good team in a weak conference. Will the Giants, Panthers, Cowboys, and Eagles improve?
I'd like to see them back and I hope I can snatch Alexander in next year's draft.
Then there were two or three holding penalties that killed drives and a pass to the 1.
Alexander was just getting started running.
You also have that Steeler defensive player who was going offsides on blitzes yet never got called for it.
The illegal block call on one of Warrick's returns looked like an awful call too.
Alexander was just getting started running well and one of the holding penalties killed that drive. Replays on these two holding penalties I mention showed it wasn't hoilding.
I have a strong reason to believe that the football game was fixed.
I had a weird feeling about it.
Madden looked at the "holds" and didn't see a hold there in at least one of them. The one where he thought there might be a hold because the player's lowered head ended up near the offensive guy's arm didn't look like a hold to me either.
I was correct back in the beginning at POST #38. West-coast hippies couldn't beat East-coast psychopaths.
My wife's parents and mine lived in Pittsburgh for 10 years. Yeah buddy... way to go Steelers. As in steel mills, as in Westinghouse.
Didn't get to look at that and none of the announcers seemed to look at the question.
LOL - it also snowed quite a bit in Hell last fall when the Houston Astros finally won the NL pennant.
Freezing over would have occurred had they actually won the World Series. However, Hell was spared the ice that time.
Breaks can go either way. Had Roethlisberger thrown that one pass a little higher it would have been a touchdown instead of a huge interception runback, which lead to Seattle's only touchdown. Would have made it 28-3 final score.
Personally, I would have given the MVP of this game collectively to the entire Pittsburgh defense. They're the only ones who deserved it.
Let us ask this question, Would a ref be more likely to make a call the wrong way out of favoritism that could cost him his job or out of economic incentive?
Oh, please..
