I stole this from csxmu. [Insert victory dance]
LOL!
I’d say that’s right on topic, today at least!
I’m just glad The Bus got his ring!

ain’t that the truth
Yep, the refs, dropped passes, mismanagement of the clock, poor play calling and typical Steelers football from start to finish.
If you have the opportunity, review the Steelers’ playoff games, paying close attention to the poor officiating but also the way a Championship team overcomes the same.
I’m disgusted with the level of officiating in the NFL this year and agree that several calls were wrong and completely fabricated in last night’s game. Even so, that facet was perhaps the smallest in Seattle’s demise.
Chip, let’s hope that the Super Bowl Express that left the station last night is a round and round and not a point to point line. [:)]

Dropped passes do to pass interferance that wasn’t called. That was the only game I watched this season and it made me glad I didn’t waste time watching any others.
To keep this on topic-Neat Train Chip! (One I won’t be adding to my collection though.)[:D]
Well, its your money…[;)][:D][:o)]
All the Stealers could afford was an old F Unit?[:p][:p][:p][:p][:p]
I’m a Raiders fan - Al Davis would have sued to get an SD70 and made the league pay for it.[}:)]
HOW BOUT THEM STEELERS SORRY GUYS IM A PITTSBURGH STEELERS FAN AND LOVE THAT TRAIN GO STEELERS!!!
If the Seahawks were as good as everyone said they were, they should’ve been able to overcome the not-so-good officiating. Either way congrats to the Bus and have a good retirement.
That’s a nice train, I wouldn’t mind one of those in a Bears scheme, or even better one for every Chicago sports team [:P].
PS: it would take much more money to restore an old F-unit than just buy a new SD70insert typer here.
Denver fan here -
and even so I was rooting for the Steelers. They’re a class act, and that’s something the Seaturkeys know nothing about!
Bad calls are a part of any game. You want the best officiating possible, but there’s a lot happening all at once, and the officical must call what he sees. Those guys only have the luxury of slo-mo replay when a call is challenged.
The NFL should tell the announcers to clam up and stop second-guessing so many calls on the field.
The Steelers won and that there is to say about it.
LOL, the only team that Aussies know is the Dallas Cowboys…
GO COWBOYS

I’ve been thinking about the officiating and if you narrow it to the two most prominent “questionable” calls, pass interference in the end zone and Big Ben’s Dive into the end zone. These two alone would not have given the Seahawks enough to the game. The pass interference was followed by a field goal and the Big Ben dive would have been an chip shot field goal. So we are talking about an 8 point differential. The game was decided by 11.
About the pass interference call. Certainly there was contact. If the contact was enough to change the momentum of the defender such that it takes him out of the play, then the call was justified. Sometimes it doesn’t take much. The ref thought so. Madden didn’t.
I watched all the replays like everyone else on the Big Ben dive. I honestly couldn’t tell.
It’s just a game. It’s not worth one iota of bad emotion. It’s not like you were passed over for promotion.
I’ve only got one Bus on my layout. When I finish painting it, I think I’ll make it Number 36.
I’m a cowboys fan and will be a Texans fan if they ever pull their head out, (people in texas have this thing about rooting for winners…not loosers)…but i’m happy pittsburg pulled it off…always liked them …one of my favorite teams was the steelers when they had bradshaw, rocky bliar, franco harris, lynn swan (what a player!) and the steel curtain…mean joe greene, lc greenwood, ernie holmes, and jack lambert the meanest linebacker (well maybe besides *** butkis and ray nitsky) to ever play the game…chuck

Here’s the real MVP of the game:)
(I’m trying to keep it on topic a little too.)
Nice train Spacemouse[:-^][:-^][:-^] These are Thomas Kinkade painted, way over priced, Bachmann Spectrums. I think you can get a Patriots one also… Save your money though
Was there some kind of game or something recently??? Guess i must have been doing yard work down in the basement… Hmmmm!?! Was it on Television? Doesn’t matter, I haven’t had the Idiot box on in weeks. Little worth watching anyway. Well I’m glad somebody won! I quite watching pro sports years ago when the Bills were labeled “Losers” after making it to the “Big Game” 4 years in a row. [}:)][}:)][;)] Sorry! I’ll go now! [:D]
