steelers here
Due to the fact they are on a roll..
They played alot of big games this year,and have played harder schedule.
I dont like the spread and I feel another close game here.

Think I will just buy some squares

My vote? Who cares! I will be hammered either way!

If it isnt the Lions (God help me, I know...), or failing that the Bears, I dont give a shit either way.

The lions too funny. until they get new owners give it up.Also they need to get rid of matt millen.Even barry knew there was no hope.

biggest lion bust of all time? andre ware.

Go ahead give me negative reps , but the above is the truth

You can't get TOO hammered - you gotta hit the casino to fleece those dumb yankees!

My money's on the Steelers - afterall, they're wearing their whites...

I'm playing in a poker tourney, drinking from a 60 litre keg, and eating slice after slice of greasy pizza. I may not know who won until 2pm the next day .

Is everyone forgetting that Seattle has played as impressively if not more impressively than Pitt. during the playoffs as well?

Not to mention They have a far superior 1/2 (Hasselback/Alexander vs Rothlisberger/Parker-Bettis) and a defense which held Steve Smith to 30 something yards

If this game had taken place on a neutral field, on the first week of the playoffs (I know this is impossible) the seahawks would be favored by close to a TD

Zy - the only reason I'm picking Pittsburgh (that's where the Steelers are from right??? ) is because they're wearing their whites!

Seriously, I have almost NO knowledge of football. I never really liked the game and only recently have begun to appreciate some of the amazing plays that take place. Although for a while I was making some coin betting on the games...then my guy disappeared - ah well.

Could I sit down and watch an entire game with the guys? Now - no problem! Before - I'd have probably wandered off somewhere. Would I enjoy it? Again, now I probably would, provided it had some really great plays.

Will I ever be one of those guys who's TV is on all day Sunday going from game to game? Probably not. (after all, interfere's with the NASCAR races) In fact, if I ever did become one of those guy's, Nikki'd probably beat me.

If this poll was who you WANT to win the superbowl, I'd have to go with Seattle since Paul Allen owns the team. That's why I like the Trailblazers...

Jesus, I've never seen a team get so outplayed and still win by 11 points.

Penalties destroyed Seattle tonight (and cost them the game), as did the worst play calling and clock management at the end of both halves that I have ever seen (AND Im a Jet fan...so you know this must of been pretty bad)

The roethlisberger rushing td was a little sketchy imo, i dont think the ball crossed but it was very close. The few inches out of bounds for seattle cost them a Td...the offense holding penalty... constant holding penalties on every big return they had...

Pittsburgh really had 3 plays the whole game. The incredibley lucky and HORRIBLE across field pass on 3rd and 30 which gave them 1st and goal. The long run by Willie Parker, and the nicely designed trick play with Randel El and Ward.

Oh well, entertaining superbowl for the most part at least

congrats Pittsburgh
