hats off to the Steelers.
i wish there weren't any controversial calls though. all i asked for was a good game without interference from the refs. no such luck.
i hope the media noticed that the seahawks were not the pushover that they thought we were.

Not in their athletic ability.
But obviously in the ability of their owners to grease the right palms at the Golf Club.
Seattle should be ashamed that, given this opportunity, they didn't stoop to destroying one of the last American institutions like their competition did.
Silly hippies, always the realists.

Think what you will but it is a penalty if you extend the arm.. Take it for what it's worth but it's the rules.

Yeah it's pretty cut and dry in the rulebook, the pushoff rule that is.
It's so funny i have all these bitter redskins and eagles fans (my gf) IMing and texting me saying how we're lucky and not good etc. There's always gonna be haters. The eagles fans will say porter deserved a flag for a horsecollar (because that's how they lost TO last yr)![Tomato](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/tomato.gif)
Refs aside, the seahawks lost because of poor clock management, inability to finish drives, and like someone mentioned before, gave up 3 big plays. Most of you should know big plays win games.
Congrats Steelers....don't listen to the haters.

Soopa if you watched the WHOLE playoffs and every game you would know the refs have Royally fucked up the game.. We almost lost to Indy b/c of a call that the league came out and said it was the wrong call.. The Refs suck.. And these are the "All Star" refs for big games..

You're team and their championship is a fake.
The NFL is more corrupt than the Kremlin.

Only because the Seahawks and every other half sober and rational person in the universe realized the game was FIXED.
Why let themselves get hurt when the game can't/couldn't be won?

it has to be indisputable evidence to reverse the call! the ball was so close and you know it. I agree it didn't look like it was in to me, but honestly it was within less than a cm of getting across the goal line.

You could see that dirty fucking cave man of a quarter back trying to snake that ball across the line after pulling it out from under his steroid shrunkin genitals.

i know at the end once he hit the ground he tried to push it across but when he was in the air the ball pretty much stopped right before the line... so obviously the refs weren't going to reverse their call on the field
like i stated earlier if the line judge (or whoever made the initial call) would have ruled the ball not across the line then the instant replay would not have found it to be a touchdown.. the blame should be on that line judge for making that call for what he thought was a touchdown. in real time play it looked like it could be across but obviously when looking at replay it was so close and the evidence wasn't clear enough to reverse it.
i remember a stat saying the main ref was 23% of reversing calls on the field... lowest in the league.

It wasn't in.
The Steelers dominated the 2nd half...but that 1st TD was not in....we were all arguing that one at the party i was at...anyone who says the corner of the ball was in is blind.
He elbow was pushed under him in the air...the ball never made it in.

i dont' think that was pass interference but the only reason it was called was cuz it happened in front of the ref or because the db argued it to the ref.. shouldn't have been called pass interference but i still think the steelers played better in the 2nd half.
