The Superbowl, I don't ask much from karma...

The last year or so hasn't been so great. I've lost my business, my Porsche, my motorcycles, etc... I've gained 50 pounds, had a hernia, and my prostate seems to be throwing in the towel pitifully early in the game of life. The proverbial trainwreck if you will.

But... if you can see to it the Cards hand the Steelers an embarrassing defeat for the ages today we'll call it square...deal?

I should add that I have no special love for the Cards, they are almost a non factor save for my appreciation of Fitz, Bolden and Warner as individual players...no this all stems from a deep and seething hatred of the Steelers that burns with the raging intensity of a thousand suns. The only thing that could be better than a Steelers loss today would be if Cower were still the coach.

That is all.


p.s. I'll scratch the prostate thing and the motorcycles if you see to it the Cards at least cover the spread.

An old adage...it's okay to root for the underdog, but it's not the way to bet.

Fade the public, take the points. Remember these two things and you'll be ok.

The Cards beat the spread, right? So, how much does the bookie have to pay you, Len?

A bit more than tech paid on the Cheney bet.

But I'm still not happy. Did I mention I hate the Steelers?

Sorry, daddy. I thought the Cards had it. Holmes should have definitely been thrown out of the game for his behavior.

Oh well, it's the only game I watch all year. I really don't think there's much to see and Holmes proves that. What a piece of crap.

WTF!!!

Where was the booth review on the last play!?

That was the textbook definition of a play that warrants review.

On which play?

What did Holmes do? I didn't see it.

The very last play.

It looked like an incomplete pass to me, not a fumble.

It was a fumble.

Great game, too bad the Cards couldnt pull it out.

Next thing I'll watch on tv is the Masters. Not a bad thing, I need to get my car ready for the DE season. Football is finally over!

In theory, this will help me focus on my studies on Sundays...in theory.

I was rooting for the Steelers, and it was indeed a great game, and while it was awsome for the Steelers, it sure does suck that the Cards lost, they played fantastic.

Yeah, if you totally ignore those two or three hundred incredibly stupid penalties the cards pulled that cost them the freaking Superbowl. Idiots didn't deserve to win and they cost Kurt Warner a win he earned.

It was a good game for a change. Before we weep for Warner, don't forget the 100 yard pass interception for a TD he lobbed. That was a 14 point swing. He can't blame anyone but himself.
