Super Bowl Thoughts

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been to 7 Super Bowls. They have won 6. If this statement was less appalling, and less fascinating it could be critisized for being as sickening a display of negating redundancy as every public comment that John Madden has ever made. (I kinda like being wordy) Half of the league has never even won 1 Super Bowl, and 5 teams have never even been to the big show. These fans are spoiled. Unless they are hardcore Pirates fans, they know very little of the misery many longsuffering sports fans across the country feel. But I highly doubt that even a tenth of Steelers nation are Pirates fans. This doesn't seem fair. Where is the karma?

What was the deal with the commercials last night? If that wasn't a sign of the state of the economy, I don't know what was. How many soft porn godaddy.com commericials can they show? And the absolute lack of funny beer commercials made me a little uncomfortable. I am totally used to funny beer commercials. Bruce was Bruce if Bruce was old, but still awesome, if you're being objective. If you're living on emotion (like me) Bruce is painfully melodramtic, and ridiculously overrated, but entertaining, just like LOST and American Idol.

I realize that in one way, because it was the winning touchdown, that Santonio Holmes catch was worthy of winning him the MVP, but wasn't it obvious that James Harrison's 100 yard pick six was the difference in the whole game? My man almost died. Did you see him after running over every person in the stadium wearing red and white, and a couple of refs, and 5 squirrels? If the Cardinals get a touchdown there, they win. If they get a field goal, win. If Kurt Warner throws the pick and Harrison runs 99 yards, Cardinals=Lombardi. How is Harrison not the MVP? The only way I can figure is if the voting committee was Lebron James and the MVP nod was reward for the cheesy Lebron chalk thing.

Yes. I like sports. Grow up. At least I don't drink Decaf or listen to Fall Out Boy. Wait...
