The Super Bowl is set. It is a Steelers/Cardinals matchup with the Steelers winning 23-14 to the Baltimore Ravens. That was some game as well, but the Ravens kept turning over the ball. Anyway, on February 1 is the big game.
Cheers

gt12pak,
I will not bet you. You may be right. The odds are with you on this game, but I am pulling for the Cardinals, mainly because I don't like the Steelers (never have), and I like the under dog in this one. So I will say GO CARDINALS!!!!!
Cheers Hondo -
Like the rest of you folks, I figure the Steelers will take this one. I'm rooting on the Cardinals, though, because this is their first opportunity to be in the Superbowl and this may be Kurt Warner's swan song. Even if the Cardinals lose, they shouldn't feel down - they had a great season!
-
I will be watching as usual, although I'm not bothered who wins.
I enjoy both the game and the spectacle -
Everything is in place. Now I'm ready for game time!
-
Game Time is less than 3 hours, and I just wish they get it started. This other junk is really stupid. I'm not even watching it. I've been outside doing some things. The weather is pretty nice. May not get a good day for a while.
Cheers -
I wanted it to be a keystone state Superbowl but that didn't work out, so I am cheering for the Cardinals. I am a fan of Warner. He is a good QB.
In reality defense wins games and Pittsburgh has a good one, but so did Carolina. If the o-line protects Warner it will be the Cards, if not Pittsburgh. -
Well the final is in and the Steelers take it in an exciting final, 27-23. It was one of the best Super Bowls out there. Congratulations to all the Steelers fans. This one and the last one were great Super Bowls out there. Though I was pulling for the Cardinals, they just didn't quite make it, but they did give a good game. Cardinals had too many penalties, and turn overs. Not to take away what the Steelers did. The defense was the true key in this one.

Congratulations to both teams for such a marvelous match. -

Keith, that game must have been over on your side of the pond after 4 in the morning. Did you see the whole game?
Cheers Hondo -
I agree. I enjoyed the game very much. Very exciting!

Cheers HondoA bit earlier than that Mike,
The coverage was between.2300- 0300 GMT.
And yes I watched the whole game, including 'The Boss'! -
Tell me something, Keith. How popular is American Football over where you are?
That has to be dedication to watch a whole game that time of night. And the boss was pretty good with the limited time he had. The stage show was really good. I like the boss pretty good, not a big fan, but you have to like his music.
A really good game!
Cheers -

CheersI thought Faith Hill, was good also.
The game is not that popular here,
but there are a few die hard fans like myself.
I am acually a fan of the '49ers'
However there have been a couple NFL/NFC
League games at Wembley Stadium,
which has helped the popularity a little. -
A better game than I could have imagined. When Fitzgerald got that touchdown, I yelled (and woke up the kids who had school today). But I knew that Arizona had left too much time on the clock. But with Blitzburg's defense, I'm actually surprised that Warner nearly passed for 400 yards (I think it was actually 377). Ah well, here's to the Falcons next year.

I agree, this was one of the best Superbowl games to be played. If the Cardinals had not so many penalties, they would have won!
BTW - Call me conservative - I prefer "The Star Spangled Banner" to be performed in it's standard form, not with so many personal embellishments thrown in to distort it to an unrecognizable morass. -
It didn't help the pitch though did it Ethan !!
They cut it up pretty bad and it still wasn't right for the next England match at Wembley.
I think it's still a minority sport over here.
I can't understand why it lasts so long :confused: -

but dare I say, I thought the other singer ' murderded' the anthem!!
Why is it, that so called 'soul' singers,
bend the songs into an unrecognizable mess!! -
