Many of you may know that I am a huge football fan (let me rephrase...Pittsburgh Steeler fan).

I have to say that I am quite excited about the Pittsburgh Steelers making it to the SuperBowl, for the first time in 10 years!

Every year, they would get to the playoffs, and most of the time to the divisional championship game, and then choke. This year, they've gone all the way to the big show, and everyone in the Pittsburgh area is overjoyed.

It has become Pittsburgh Steeler madness here.

I guess I'd like to hear from all of you that will be watching the SuperBowl, and get your feedback, opinions, etc, and who your pick is, etc.
 
I too am a football fanatic.
My Sundays during football season have only one agenda. Watch football. As many games as possible.

Sadly, I am a Raiders fan.

I believe that Ben Roethlisberger will ultimately become this generation's Brett Favre or Tom Brady. Indianapolis has this generation's Dan Marino. I say that because Marino never really one anything. Roethlisberger I think will win 2 or 3 rings before he is done.

Pittsburgh will win this year's Superbowl, fairly easily. Seattle looked great but they are in the NFC and it's not really that hard to look good against NFC teams.

Pittsburgh 27 Seattle 21
 
I completely agree.

I think Pittsburgh will dominate Seattle. Of course, I said the same thing about Pitt vs Denver, and even though that is how it turned out....I practically had a stroke when the prediction came true. lol

Roethlisberger's mind has grown into his arm, this season. Last season, he was fresh. I think he choked in the divisional playoffs, because of the pressure of being a rookie, and making it to the superbowl. It was too much, too fast, and I believed that weighed on his mind, and caused him to get overexcited, and ultimately blow it last season.

It's a shame that we most likely won't be seeing The Bus next year. However, although he's still a young guy, he's getting up there in years, to be playing for the NFL.

I'm gonna say the game will be Pitt: 34 Seattle: 27. Pittsburgh has been pretty good at forcing the turnovers, and fieldgoals this season (at least in the past weeks). They seem to be bringing back the "Steel Curtain" of the Steelers 70's teams. They've really picked up on defense, where they somewhat lacked, a good portion of the season.

Not taken personally in the least. Of course though, you have more faith in the Seahawks, than the people of Seattle do according to a web poll (saw it on the news), 69% of the people who took the poll from Seattle, said the Seahawks will lose.

Something else you have to keep in mind is that the NFC is a much weaker division in the NFL, both talent wise and statistically. No mistake, there are very talented individuals in the NFC division, but not one of the teams match up againts any team in the AFC. You're more than welcome of course to have your own opinion about who will win, but I'd be careful as to how much money you put on Seattle, Teresa will kill you if you lose your house lol.

Remember, even Vegas has Pittsburgh as the favorite in this one. ;)
 
HAHA Mark! Problem is, I'll be watching the Superbowl for the commercials - I only watch one game a year, and it's for the commercials ;)

Not for the half time show??? Wonder if there are going to be any "wardrobe malfunctions" this year :)

Personally ... I will be banking on the Seahawks. Not because they are the better team ... just because I tend to always cheer for the underdogs.

I go for SeaHawks too. Mat Hassleback Was my neighbor growing up and we still see him around here during the off season. Also, Lofa Tatupu went to my High school. GO SEAHAWKS

Next time you see him, ask him how hard it was to get the bus tracks off of his jersey.
 
Actually it will be Lofa Tatupu who will have the Bus tracks all over him.

Hassleback will have to have laser surgery to remove the #55 tatoo that Joey Porter will leave on his chest.
 
Oh Oh Blue dominating us. Anyone see that MNF when the SeaHawks played a team (I forget who)? Anyways, the Seahawks defense said their name and school. When it came to Lofa, he went to two colleges (Maine and USC) so he didn't know what to say. So he said "King Philip Regional." KP is my High school, and it was pretty sweet.
 
Yeah yeah yeah. I was goin', "OOOH THEY'RE ONLY BEHIND BY 4!!!" Then stupid PA got a TD and FG and I was swearing at the TV, sayin' "COME ON GUYS! MARK IS GONNA GIVE ME CRAP!"
:(
 
lol I won't say nothing more than...."Whooooohooooo Pittsburgh!" and, "They won, exactly like Blue, and I said they would" ;) :thankyou:
 
Congrats to the Steelers.

I was rooting for the Seahawks ... but ... I won $50 in the Football Pool we had going between some friends. Like I said ... I was cheering for the Seahawks because they were the underdog ... but I knew the Steelers would likely win. And I got lucky enough to get the point spread in the score right. Woo Hoo !!! Dang ... and I never win anything. hehehehe :)
