Congrats to the Super Bowl Champion Pittsburgh Steelers!
Well, I thoroughly enjoyed that game!
I know a lot of Seattle fans are upset, not just by the game outcome, but the officiating, as well. Of all the gripes I've heard (and I've read a LOT of them), there's really only one that I completely agree with. The offensive pass interference on Seattle WR Darrell Jackson in the endzone that negated a Seattle touchdown. That was too nitpicky. Other than that, though, I didn't think the other calls were out of line.
You have to play your best game when you get to the Super Bowl, and the Seahawks made mistakes. When Denver made mistakes, the Steelers made the most of them and thus wiped us up in our own house. That's how good teams win.
So, congrats to the Pittsburgh Steelers! I cannot wait to see how they and the Broncos do next year. For that matter, I can't wait to see how Seattle responds to the loss. They have a great team and should do well, but it will be interesting to see.
