Same with last year. The Pats have a good fan base, but nothing compared to the Eagles fan base, and the crowd was mostly Eagle fans.


Wrong.  I've been to two parties already downtown.   No "Steelers banners", just Super Bowl XL.   I mean, don't take my word for it, I've lived near Detroit my whole life.   Finally, Jerome Bettis sucks.

Too bad the Steelers had to "bungal" Palmer's knee to win the game.

Rip,
I didn't think you were a Seahawks fan:

Quote
Just because I live here doesn't mean I support the Hawks! You must have me confused with a native-Seattlite!


And you definately didn't like band-wagon jumpers, although you just started with the Seahawk Helmet Avatar within the last month or so:

Quote
But, did you wear a Buccs cap or shirt around for the years they sucked? No? Then you're a BAND_WAGON_JUMPER


Of course you have come full circle:

Quote
Actually, Deja, I've come full circle, I like watching all football games, and really do not route one team on or another, except when it comes to playoffs, then I want the best team to win



I do agree that the referee'ing was sub-standard, at the SB and during the playoffs.

Thanks for showing me that quote button :aok

String and Paste ;)  (I think you know the author of these quotes)

Shouldn't it be spelled "root" instead of "route"?

Just asking.

No karaya, you are correct...was not many steelers fans at sb at all...not even sure what game i was watching that had all that black and gold in stands.   was very obvious who had more fans there.  not sure how you can even debate it.

This post will be skuzzified.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!
