I have to root for the underdog today, so GO SEAHAWKS!
Can’t really root for Pittsburgh anyway, Philly haters that they are.
Update (1:55 2nd): That was NOT a TD. Crap call from the refs…
Update (5:38 4th): Well, the refs just suck in general. Lots of ticky-tack calls. Regardless, looks like Pittsburgh is as good as everyone was saying. Think this one is pretty much over unless Seattle pulls out a miracle.

Big Ben had a TD. Good call there.
Couldn’t root for Seattle. No love for Pittsburgh in general, but lots of respect.

you’re probably right about the big ben TD, but I hated the way the ref called it… There’s no way that the extra 3 seconds or whatever helped him make the judgement and it sure looked like he relied on teh fact that big ben had the ball over the goal line after the defender moved off him… that’s what bugged me.
why can’t you root for seattle? the drubbing?

Nah, I just can’t feel good about Seattle. Underdogs have to care about it…where’s the pathos? I can even jibe with fallen-from-grace.
Steelers aren’t an anti-Philly team. Pens and Pirates are rivals. But the Steelers are just another team.
I dunno. Too early for introspection! =)

Sportscenter, post-game interview coverage. Microphone completely covering interviewee’s face. Woman’s voice, Cher’s hair, I’m thinking maybe Hines Ward’s wife to talk about her husband’s MVP. But it’s Troy Polamalu!!!
