The Official Super Bowl XLIII Thread

[Jimbo]

OK Wicked,
For your benefit, I just went to the :29 sec mark when Arizona took over after the Holmes score and I will watch it again and see how long the time difference was.

edit: Ok, they had a review from the booth, it took 1:05 for them to determine that it was a fumble, they also handed out a penalty on the play, so there was plenty of time to have them look at it.
They did not have to have the officials stop and look at it because it was already being done in the booth.
they even mentioned the review going on as it happened.
Then the Steeler's snapped the ball and it was all over !

The Cardinals should win that division easily next year.

The only team that MIGHT contend is San Francisco.

I think the Cards can contend for many years.

They are not a one-hit wonder ala the 1998 Falcons.

Remember when the 1979 Rams went 9-7 and made the Super Bowl? Well, they proved to be no fluke- they were a solid team in the 1980s- made the playoffs seven times, won a division title, and made 2 NFC Title games.

If Warner leaves, the team is done, he might retire, or go to another team.

No he didnt their is a replay shown by NBC that proved he didnt!

Dude, can I have some of whatever it is your smoking!

Whatever chances the Cardinals have next year depends on Warner coming back. He's talking retirement. If he retires all bets are off. In any case, the Cardinals did themselves proud tonight. Only one team can win the SB so if you're gonna lose you want to do so with a fight. When you get killed like the Bills used to people forget what you did to get there and think you're a joke like the Lions.

Don't worry, the replay he's talking about is in his head, the same one that said his Cowboy's should have been playing today.

If he retires, I hope he actually means it and doesn't pull a Favre.

He seems to classy too do so.

Streets in Pittsburgh are closed, students at Pitt started a bonfire on the campus streets.

So far no riots.

All Pittsburgh schools have a two hour delay for the morning.

The Panthers did play well when they were in the SB.

Congrats Cards, you gave the Steeler's a great game.
You showed heart , played a great game minus the penalties that both teams had (I think the officials wanted thier time in the game as well)

It got sicking during the week up to the game with everyone talking about you like you were a Dynasty of something like that ....

Good luck next year, in your division you should be back in the playoffs again.

If Warner retires, they will go out and get a vet. back up QB and hope that Leinert can take the reins. Personally, I hope he does, and does well, he's got a very good offensive nuculous to work with, much like Big Ben had in his first year.

For awhile I thought Eggerin James and Steve Breston was going to win the game for them ...

Jimbo, you think that maybe you could switch your avatar to something Steelers-related?

After all, it has been done already by some of this site's Steeler fans.

Unfortunately, the SB apearal all look ugly ....
You would think it was the Seattle Seahawks that won, the color scheme you would think would be for the teams that were in the game, but what do I know.

I thought the same thing, I was thinking why aren't they black & gold?

I guess Pittsburgh doesn't need to wait on the gov't for a stimulus.

This is a problem I've been having for the last 5 years or so (I think since the Red Sox won in '04), the championship caps are so generic now.

The caps look the same no matter who wins the championship, the only variance is the team logo patched to the cap.

Back several years ago, the caps were more about the teams colors.

I can't afford to buy any.

I would, but I don't know if my current one is on the site or not, I was not the one to put it there and would hate to change it and loose it.
