Good game I thought. Good defensive battle through out the entire game. The Seahawks were better than I had thought defensively. The Steelers offense wasn't really doing anything all night with the exception of Hines Ward.
Super Bowl commercials were pretty amusing IMO. The Caveman getting stomped on by the dinosaur and the "Don't judge too quickly" commericals were my favorites. Although Budweiser ruled the airwaves through out the game.
For it being the Super Bowl, That was the worst Pre game entertainment and Halftime show I had ever seen. The Rolling Stones proved to be the most washed up rock band in the country and possibly the history of music. The Stevie Wonder routine was terrible. Talk about ruining our National Anthem!!! That was by far the worst National Anthem I had ever heard. I would rather have Carl Lewis or Ozzy Osbourne do it if I had known it was gonna be that bad.
All in all I was disappointed with everything outside of the game itself. The Super Bowl has become so big of an event that it almost has gotten too big.
Jerome Bettis running out of the tunnel first before all of his teammates that actually got him there in the first place was not called for. I dont care how much of a legacy he is in Detroit or how much he means to the city of Pittsburgh, he is not bigger than the team, or the game for that matter. This whole SB XL should have stood for "Selling Bettis XL" because that's exactly what this whole Super Bowl was all about, Jerome Bettis. I'm glad it's over now, even thought I will have to hear about him retiring on Sports Center for the next week or so.
I'm not even gonna talk about Brady doing the coin toss. That just speaks for itself. Someone else that has been a NFL SB MVP not currently playing in the league should have tossed it, not someone who lost in the playoffs a few weeks ago.
Everything outside tonite's game was a disappointment IMO.
