In this same vane (NFL wanted Steelers to win), did you notice how many commercials showed the Steelers making love to the Lombardi trophy? It wasn't until the 2nd half that they showed a Seahawk in one of these commercials.
I was like, "man, can it get any more obvious than that!?" |

I've read comments that well Seattle still had chances, and didn't execute, so the bad calls can't be blamed....
Well, ya...It's not like a dominant SF whipping up on the hapless Donks, like past SBs. This thing was evenly matched, and the bad calls happened at the worst time for Seattle. This game was decided by the refs. |

To me it's plain. He reaches up, shoves the guy and goes the opposite way, it's pushing off. Is there something about initiating contact in the rule book? That said, I'll watch it again if there is a clip anywhere. |

IMO Jackson pushed off, and should have been flagged accordingly, but Hope made illegal contact twice before Jackson pushed off. If you're going to "let em play" when Hope is all over DJ, then you have to be consistent and let DJ get away with a minor push off. Otherwise, if you're going to call a tight game, call it consistently tight and flag Hope for illegal contact. |
I had no rooting interest whatsoever in the game. That being said:
Seattle fans and the people crying foul are sore freakin losers. The officials didn't miss two field goals. The officials didn't make Jackson stick his arm out (giving the appearence he pushed off) He could have easily made that play w/o the stiff arm. The officials didn't tackle defensive linemen. The officials didn't drop almost every pass thrown their way. (Stevens) The officials didn't give up a 3rd and 28 conversion. The officials didn't overthrow Jackson for a crucial interception. The officials didn't coach the game like Mike Martz. Seattle's play calling and clock management was pathetic. Seattle didn't execute. Bottom line. And for those of you with the stick up your ass about Bettis leading the team out of the tunnel........ His TEAMMATES asked him to do so. Was referenced at the time, and in newspaper accounts today. The better team won yesterday. |

Thanks for that input, Steeler fan. |

AGAIN.....no rooting interest....Chiefs weren't playing, so who cares? Lose with class = "We're not going to blame this game on anyone but ourselves," said Seahawks defensive end Grant Wistrom. "We lost the game. They played better than we did. They didn't make the mistakes." -Grant Wistrom Classless losers = "I didn't even touch him," Jackson said. "I guess that's how it is when you are on the road. And I guess that's how it is when you are going against the world." -Darrell Jackson |
