Steelers Win Superbowl XLIII; No Review On Last Play?

I stayed up to watch it, as it started at midnight here in Belgium, and just as it was turning into a snoozefest, it turned out to be a classic game. Those last 10 minutes were some kind of insane.

That last-minute touchdown grab by Santonio Holmes that will undoubtedly rank among the best plays in Super Bowl history. Being a Minnesota Viking fan, that looked like a patented Chris Carter catch.......back in the day.

UPDATE: According to NFL VP of Officiating Mike Pereira, the replay official upstairs did see the play clearly.
“We confirmed it was a fumble,” said Pereira. “The replay assistant in the replay booth saw it was clearly a fumble. The ball got knocked loose and was rolling in his hand before it started forward. He has to have total control.”

If you haven't seen the 30 seconds of live porn that Comcast viewers got in Arizona right during the Warner to Fitzgerald go ahead touchdown pass...go here.
Gives new meaning to the phrase....going deep, and balls out!

Tony Romo is turning Jessica Simpson into a bit of a tub

The once voluptuous Jessica is now a bit fat. She looks worse the more you look at these photos . And she’s not helping matters by wearing an entire outfit that doubles as a Civil War era garter corset with those "mommy jeans" … and two belts on top. Not only is that a fashion faux pas, it accentuates her pudge.

Great Super Bowl

Although I waited three and a half hours for Troy Aikmen to say something interesting during the broadcast (it didn't happen) the game turned out to be a classic.
It was fun watching Bill Bellichek run off the field like a little girl after his team turned over the ball with :01 second left on the clock though, guess he'd seen enough.
Is it just me, or are the Super Bowl Commercials losing their edge, despite costing nearly 3 million a minute just to air. Here's a link to watch some of the good..... and mostly very bad ones. I did like the E Trade, Bud Light Ones, and the Audi Godfather though.

I think we have a new "THE CATCH" phrase to replace the 49'ers Dwight Clark catch against the Cowboys. I mean, come on, the dude caught the ball with his helmet.
If you didn't see it.....



In the what might have been department... They should have waited until they played the game. I heard this morning on the news that the Patriots had “trademarked” the phrase “19-0″ - the record they had hoped to end up with. That, and this book that they had planned to market make it so much sweeter.
