Report Violation
I in no way blame the Steelers for the bad calls. It was completely the officiating crew. My props to Arizona for putting up with the ref's sh*t and they should know deep down they are the clean cut champions. Personally, I'm a Steelers fan but I take no pride in winning on these circumstances.
Congratulations officiating crew, you earned your bonus, you presented your bias.

Amazing game. Harrison went from being the mvp favorite to what could have been the donkey of the game. He better buy holmes a steak dinner.

Just morally, i don't know how a man can do one of the most un-ethical things a man can do.. 'kick a person when he's down' or in this case punch infront while his whole family watches, as we;; and his 2 year old son

They didn't watch Seahawks/Steelers a few years ago. Absolutely brutal.
Congrats to the Cards and their fans. Nice run for them.

Seahawks fans are actually saying this game was worse than theirs.

No way. There were so many game changing horrible calls in that one. I thought the refs were pretty solid in this one although they should have reviewed that last play. That was not a fumble.

Well I agree the steelers played with 12 people on the field all night. Probably the worst officated game in Super Bowl History and this comes from a guy who could care less who won. Funny thing is the ref who kept throwing the towel will probably be dead by the mob because he couldn't cover the spread. I also believe that the last fumble wasnt a fumble and should've been reviewed. Again showing which side the refs were for. I counted 15 holds on the steelers left tackle and he was flagged for one. On the fumble return you had an easy block in the back and Hold on warner that went unnoticed. All they were worried about is the face mask that didn't factor into the play at all. I would really like to see one journalist step up and say what millions are saying. Just one please.

Better game than last year IMO. Last year was 3 and a half quarters of crap and an epic final 3 minutes. This year was entertaining throughout. The penalties were ridiculous though, especially the holding calls on Gandy.

It was alot like the CAR-NE Super Bowl. Three quarters of blah with an offensive flurry at the end.

Tucson-area cable TV broadcast porn during Super Bowl
http://www.azstarnet.com/sn/fromcomments/278448.php
http://www.azstarnet.com/sn/fromcomments/278448.php
A short clip of a pornographic movie cut into a Comcast broadcast of the Super Bowl in homes in and around Tucson.
Officials at Comcast confirmed that its signal was interrupted during the Super Bowl, but the company is still working to figure out how porn broke into its cable feed.
Engineers at Comcast will be working throughout the night to determine what happened, said Kelle Maslyn, a Comcast spokeswoman.
The Star newsroom erupted with calls from irate viewers shortly after 7:30 p.m. who said that the porn cut into the broadcast just after Cardinals player Larry Fitzgerald scored a touchdown on a pass from Kurt Warner to give the Cardinals the lead with less than two minutes in the game.

Re: Super Bowl 43: Pittsburgh Steelers vs Arizona Cardinals
there are hold and illegal block on every play. harrison was held the WHOLE GAME! woodley was held numerous times also and it wasnt called. the steelers won straight up. the officating was not biased at all the was a fumble kurt was trying to throw it when he didnt even have possesion of it. not 2 mention i saw harrison get facemasked 2 times and it wasnt called and woodley once.
STEELER NATION baby im glad i live in PITTSBURGH!
also the cards played great big ups to them. they fought and fought and even fought some more. nothing but respect to that team!

im guessing everyone is referring to the special teams blunder by harrison when he pretty much beat that 1 guy up, right? or was there another one i missed?
as for the officiating, yea i thought it was horrible, i was getting really annoyed on the drive where pittsburgh got a fg in the 3rd. i about lost it when dansby got that horsesh*t roughing the passer and then when wilson stumbled into the holder (i didnt even know you could get a penalty for that) luckily the cards stood tall mostly when the steelers got in the redzone.
