The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Congrats to VF!

Problem with Seattle (other than the lousy officiating) was their receivers.....Hasselbeck made some great throws tonight when they needed them and got the ball right in the receivers hands and they kept dropping them....Stevens dropped a few very key passes! Pittsburg won and I am glad for them but that was the most anemic performance by a Superbowl winning team I have ever witnessed!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

That was my feeling exactly...and one other thing......How the hell do you call a guy defending the ball blocking below the waist....that was the biggest BS call of the night.

Hasselbeck tries to tackle the guy on the INT and gets called for blocking below the waist...WTF was that....I almost threw my beverage at one of the Pittsburgh fans in the room on that one.

that could be the 1st time the losing team in a superbowl out passed AND out-rushed the winning team...waiting to see the stats on that.

and Stevens needs to go back to college...its the Superbowl...you catch those passes

IMO Seattle beat themselves. They could have beat Ptt handily. Yeah there were a few sucky calls, but they still should have won.


VF congrats, enjoy it while it last, cause next season starts all over and I think there will be a new sherriff in town..

I love Hines Ward. But I still think the MVP should have gone to the ref, Leavey. The game turned around on two calls--the bogus hold on Seattle's RT that took the ball from the one, and the 15 yards they tacked on to the INT on the strangest call I've ever heard off--a "block" below the waist on Hasselbeck when he tackled the DB by going low That took the ball to close to midfield, and gave the Steelers the right field position to run the flanker reverse/option pass. They wouuldn't have run that play from their own 35

That being said--Seattle still has only themselves to blame. Missed opportunities galore, and horrible clock management--Holmgren turned into Herman Edwards

I can't recall a SB that had two horrible performances from the QBs.

I thought Hasselbeck played a great game....26 completions and 270 yards and his recievers dropped alot of bread basket balls.......they sucked! He would have had a couple more TD's and another 125 yards passing if the receivers brought their hands with them!

I can't believe one of the other officials did not argue to change that "block" call for cryin' out loud! Horrible officiating...probably the worst I have ever seen....and in the biggest game of the year no less!

I think there should be a full investigation on the officials...seriously. The 12th man was wearing white and black. One play that stood out in my mind was the end of the half when a seahawk receiver had one foot inbounds and possession, it looked like it had gone over the mark....under 2minutes they had to reveiw that. Whats up with that SH coach and officaiting crew?? On B Roths td, only when the official got near the ball did he call it in. When that play was reveiwed he should have taken that into consideration. Pitts didn't play their best game but hung in there.

Seattle did a horrible job at managing the clock. What 2 minute drill?? It was like they were in no hurry to loose. WTF, Holmgren's been there before, I was in shock. And to attempt 2 50+ yard field goals?? Did they forget that they have the best rb in the league...Go for it on 4th...It is the Superbowl.

All I can say is how sad its all become when when the two biggest stories to come out of the game are how lame Aaron Neville and the Stones were and how good the commercials were.

Every sports show talked about nothing but those two subjects.

Game?What Game?Its all about the $$$$$$$$.

I just read on espn.com
That both Joe Montana & Terry Bradshaw would not show up with the rest on the past super bowl MVPs because the NFL would not pay them what they wanted !!!

Ya, I was wondering where Monttana was.
found out today he wanted $100000 gauranteed appearances fees
sounds like alot to me, and from what I hear he would have gotten more but he wanted it for sure, so I guess the nfl said no.

Goose, good one
