Jim, if it hadn't been for all the personal fouls and stupid penalties the Cardinals gave up in the first half....
Congrats to the Steelers though on their sixth Lombardi trophy.

Pretty good game! I know the Ref's were trying very hard to call stuff on Arizona...
Both mary and I felt the steelers actually EARNED this one.
Bravo BigBen!!
“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
If Ben didn't miss a wide open Nate Washington in the End Zone, if Justin Hartwig didn't get called for holding in the end zone forcing a safety, if Harrison doesn't get called for a personal foul allowing the Cardinals to continue to score....
Both teams made mistakes and both teams made great plays. All in all, I think they paid for their mistakes and earned their good plays. No excuses or complaints this year.
Believe it or not, I think the Cardinals earned a victory too, but the Steelers had the last go and the experience of Big Ben paid off. Can't rub it in on the Cardinals fans as their team played one hell of a game.
Even though Holmes and James Harrison made big plays, I think MVP honors should have went to Ben. The WR couldn't have made the catches if not for Ben's great scrambling and tosses. And as fantastic of a catch that was that Holmes made, it was an equally perfect pass from Ben.

I too thought Ben should get the nod. While his stats weren't typical of an MVP - his sheer WILL sustained critical drives. He's a helluva QB. I've always liked him. The Cards certianly did not embarass.

Yet another Steelers Superbowl where the ref's were CLEARLY paid-off.... sigh..........
Yep, many whiners today, as there always are after a close SB or playoff game. I just have this to say to them:
THIS
WILL BE ADDED TO THIS

Cardinals fan in Tampa: I knew the refs would find a way to give the game to the Steelers!
Katie: Don't forget all the money we paid them.
Another Cardinals fan: Why does the NFL hate the Cardinals? They took this game away from us.
Katie: Everyone hates the Cardinals. Including God.
Female Cardinals fan: All you obnoxious Pittsburgh people are surely going to hell for the way you acted today!
Katie: Your husband is already in hell.
Katie's dad said she was on a roll all day.
I gotta say, this thread is making me feel all warm and Fuzzy. Thanks.
