I've got an empty keg of Yeungling, couple empty bottles of whiskey

House is a mess, my head is KILLING me and I don't think I saw, oh, five mins of the game.

Ugh.....glad this is only once a year.

    I went easy this year, and focussed on the munchies, not the beer.

    I didn't care who won, but I certainly don't like games where the referees clearly have an agenda. The Seahawks were cheated out of a touchdown early in the game. The flag was thrown after the receiver caught the ball in the end zone, not after the alleged violation occurred. Even the four commentators were in agreement during halftime that it was a very bad call.

    I missed the whole thing....No food, no drinks, no game. Just catching up on the commercials today on ifilms. I really didn't like either team (can't stand the Steelers and am ambivilent about the Seahawks). I might have watched without all the "spectacle" (which is a total waste IMO), but since I would have been pisssed at the outcome, it was just as well.

    Agree. Plus, the first Steeler's TD, was not a TD...IMO...

    I'm a fan of neither team, but will admit that I am glad Bill Cowher finally got a ring.

    the first Pittsburgh TD, the ball is obscured, so its hard to see if it croses the plane or not, i.e. no definitive proof it didnt, hence, can not overturn. I looked at it close, if you imagine how he is holding the ball, a strong argument can be said that the tip of the ball glanced into the goal line.

    the push off call against seatle was technically right, you cant do that. was the call weak? well, that is where the debate should be.

    I certainly dont think it is enough to say the ref's had an agenda to let Pittsburgh win. I've seen much worse officiating in a game.

    sorry about your head but you did not miss much of a game. both teams SUCKED, dropped passes, clock mismanagement, and i dont think more than like 5 plays the whole game ended without a penalty. unless you are a Steelers fan, not much of a game at all :mad:

    You slugs got to watch the lame **** old as dirt Rolling Stones for your halftime show.

    Me, I was at the club and watched a 3 girl shower show. Imagine 3 hotties, naked, in the shower and rubbing soap all over each other...yeah...everywhere!

    I blew off the rest of the game. Just wasn't the same after my halftime show. ;)

    WAAAA! :D

    So in other words, the Super Bowl is simply one big excuse to watch grown men run around with a little ball, while trying to crush each other to death, while eating all kinds of unhealthy food, while drinking SO MUCH that you're hung over blithering idiots for the entire next day!

    Does that about sum it up? :eek: :rolleyes: :p:D
