    For a moment, I thought you guys were talking about Larry Fitzgerald. Then I saw "Super Bowl champion" ...

    Oh, he's a sumbitch to. Especially because he didn't fall down on the 1 and waste some time. :)

    Not a fan of that strategy. If you have a chance to score a touchdown, you take it, even if you leave too much time on the clock. Besides, Warner had already thrown a goal-line pick-six to Harrison and the Steelers got stuffed at the goal line on the opening drive, so why take that chance?

    Wait, why are we discussing the game again?

    No, you are right, in a sense. I think most teams are to be trusted at the 1, the Cardinals? Well, they already proved they couldn't be trusted at that stage. Why the didn't throw a jump ball to girlfriend-beater at the end of the first half, I'll never know. You throw a pass only Fitzgerald can catch. If he doesn't catch it, it goes out of bounds. Oh well. Instead, Warner forced something underneath and it was returned for a touchdown.

    Oh well.

    At least I know James Harrison is a piece of shit.

    Peter King has joined the conspiracy to make Ben Roethlisberger look like a tough guy. He is saying that Roethlisberger played the Super Bowl with two small rib fractures.

    I pretty much figured that was going on after the clandestine CBS shots of Ben with the trainers outside the locker room were shown during the Baltimore game.
    Perhaps now all the talk-show idiots in Pittsburgh who think he's a diva will shut the heck up.

    Hmmm. You'd almost think I had certain SportsJournalists.com members in mind when I posted the link to that story.

    Roethlisberger has entered the lemming suck zone, where Brett Favre and Tom Brady hold tenure.
