The Best of Harley-Davidson for Lifelong Riders
Bottom line, we won the SuperBowl THIS YEAR, which means, at the end of the season, we were the best team in the entire leauge THIS YEAR. You're team wasn't so have a seat.
We're the first team to Six Championships, your team wasn't, so have a seat.
Talk all the trash you want when your team supersedes another team's accomplishments. Until then, have a seat and show some respect to the best NFL franchise THIS YEAR, and OF ALL TIME!
Have a nice day. Maybe, if you really want to help your team, they're probably looking for a new camera man to spy on the other teams.
Oh, and I'm not sure what your concern is over my current or past location, but I am a Steeler fan, and that's all that matters at this point in time, regarding this particular subject. All I know is living anywhere is better than living in New England. Thanks.

Super Bowl. Let me describe, as best I can, what I saw...
Arizona comes out drives the ball near mid field and on 3rd down Warner goes back to pass. Steelers rush
gets to him and he FUMBLES the ball. Now, to this point I thought this was the shakiest of the two calls
(remember they had one at the end of the game that they got right, but please let's not even go there yet).
So, I'm watching and he is hit and AFTER he's hit he then makes a half-assed attempt to get rid of the ball
to avoid the sack. THAT'S RIGHT he wasn't throwing the ball... well throwing it away maybe, yes? So here
what should've happened, it should've remained a fumble OR Warner should've been flagged for intentional
grounding. There was no eligible receiver within 20 yards and I'm not sure the ball even made it back to the
line of scrimmage? So you people that want to cry "officiating" here's an example where they screwed the
pooch in the Cardinals favor (Ari 1 - Pitt 0).
Next the Cardinals punted the ball after the erroneous incomplete pass call by the officials and the Steelers
get the ball at the 18. They subsequently drives ends up netting them a field goal but here's what happened
on the drive. Roughing the passer call against the Cardinals that, altough they hit him after he released the
ball, the defender didn't have the 2 step allowed and was therefore unable to slow down. So, I'm admitting
that was a nit-picky call (Ari 1 - Pitt 1).
There was a facemask called against Rogers-Cromartie and it was legit so no points.
moving closer to the goal line.
Willie Parker runs the ball for about 10 yards and is tackled by A. Wilson (AW). Wilson forcefully rips the *****
from Willie Parker after he was down and then procedes to jump on the ball as if to suggest that Parker had
fumbled? That should've been either a delay of game penalty or an unsportsmanlike conduct (Ari 2 - Pitt 1).
Steelers line up for a field goal and AW runs into the holder. Can't argue it, it happened. Can't reason that he
didn't know or he didin't mean to. I watched it again today and I seriously think he was trying to manhandle
the freakin holder. I don't know why but that what I think. He had his head up high enough to know what he
was doing and I think he was sending a message that if it came down to a FG for the Steelers at the end of
the game that the holder better remember that hit, or something like that? (Ari 3 - Pitt 1)
Steelers get a fresh set of downs and this time on 3rd down Roethlisberger runs the ball and comes up short
and AFTER the play was blown #90 for the Cardinals is seen pushing Hatwig (I think) over the piles... AND
THERE WAS NO CALL? (Ari 4 - Pitt 1)
On this one series by both teams to start the 3rd quarter the Cardinals benefitted from the officiating
more than the Steelers did by 4-1.
Just like with the unhappy Seahawk fans at the end up SB XL there are people that refuse to watch it
objectively and wanna cry foul. lol
If I may revisit just 1 play from that SB. When the Seahawk WR was called for the push off in the endzone
that negated a TD. I mean come on... when he turns to face the defender extends his arm and the
defender's feet and body move in the oposite direction (indicating he was pushed) then what likely
happened? AND WHAT'S WORSE is it happened two feet in front of the official in the endzone.
COME ON!!!
Sorry this ended up being longer than I had intended.
last but not least... GO STEELERS!!! Hopefully we'll get another for the oposite hand next year.
