    Best commercials
    Diet pepsi w/ Jackie chan
    Ameriquest mortgage after Nimoy/Aleve which was weak but better than any Priceline commercial

    As far as the game, Seattle is winning the Field position battle. Hasselbeck looks real good. I have seen deer in the headlights that look more calm than Rothliesberger.

    Why is Tom Brady in the Superbowl doing the cointoss? Out of all the people they could have picked. I think the NFL has something for Tom Brady. Why not throw in Favre since he is going to retire.

    So far, this Superbowl sickens me. The officials cost the Seahawks a touchdown with that interference penalty against Darrell Jackson in the first quarter. WTF? Where's the contact?

    I won't complain about Big Ben's TD run. There wasn't sufficient evidence to overturn the call, but it was pretty close, no matter how you look at it. Holmgren's obviously pissed about it, though.

    So far there have been three "Wow, look how nice the Lombardi trophy looks" commericals and ALL THREE of them have featured Pittsburgh Steelers players or coaches. WTF? Seattle has no chance?

    Gee...I wonder who the media wants to win? I think I'm going to puke...

    Go Seahawks.

    I completely agree.

    Did anyone else notice that whenever Seattle crossed midfield early the game there was a holding call on the next 3rd down conversion?

    M. Irvin was right about Jackson's TD that it was a ticky tack call.

    I will complain about B Roth run. It was NOT a TD. He had to move his arm forward a good 9 to 12 inches after he was down. It was further back while 'the Clock' was in flight. The ironic thing about it was the ref who upheld the call knew Holmgren from ehen they were bothing doing H.S. games back in Northern CA

    I noticed that too about the Lombardi trophy commercials. Once is coincedence, twice is not, 3 is a conspiracy.

    In another thread, I gave 4 reasons why I wanted Seattle, there is now a 5th. The Seahawk Cheerleaders are smokin hot!

    So far, This Super Bowl has proved Joey Porter can talk the talk but has NOT been able to back it up.

    Once again, I stand by my assertion that he is yet another idiot from Colorado St Univ.

    The officials continue to hand the Steelers the game. Holding? Where? Low block? Where?

    Yeah...congrats Jerome Bettis. Whatever...

    As the game progesses i realize that the refs really want stealers to win ex: The td by rothesberger was not a td, The holding call when seatle was on the 1 was not holding, The horse collar tackle not called, The push off called was nto a push off. Well i guess its true if u give 50% and the refs give 50% u cant loose

    I saw it too, but i was rooting for the Seahawks....Im gonna give the benefit of the doubt because I dont want to rain on what should be a great event for Steelerfan, but It has looked like the Steelers are getting calls....none of it was so much that Seattle couldnt overcome it.....

    I was dissapointed with the Candice commercial. Dam the FCC... I liked the Diet Pepsi commercial..

    Anyways I picked against Pitt all playoffs long. Every game I went against them. I'm not an idiot for doing so. I've learned my lesson and I'll probably pick them to repeat if they stay intact.
