I think he is referring to the TD that Seattle made that was called back due to an offensive interference call. The Seahawk "pushed off" of the Steeler defender. Personally I thought it was lame. It's like calling "holding"- you can say that about nearly every play. I also thought Ben R was not in the endzone on that TD either. I am not a fan of either team, BTW. The game was unsatisfying, IMHO.

Oh, OK. That one, I did think was questionable, for sure. It didn't really look like a pushoff to me, and it was nowhere near where the play actually ended up.

Ben got that touchdown, barely, but he got it.

Maybe the worst Super Bowl ever... Big ben had a QB rating of 22.6, the lowest of any winning Super Bowl QB ever. As for the zebras, they blew it big time too.

I feel bad for Steeler and Seahawk fans, because the entire game just sucked out loud.

I can hardly wait until next year when Brady and the Pats get back in there, and then we'll have real good Super Bowl.

"The game was unsatisfying, IMHO."

I agree. It would have much more entertaining if the officials had let them play. Two other lame calls that I saw were the long pass to inside the five yard line Seattle made during the third that was called back due to holding? Two plays latter Seattle through the interception and the quarterback made the tackle, and the officials had the nerve to call him for an illegal block. Fifteen yards?

Honestly, I almost turned it off then. The officials ruined the game for me. The announcers agreed that the holding call was suspect and the illegal block call just stupid. Tackling below the knee is perfectly legal and obviously you are not trying to block someone when you are trying to tackle them.

Whatever..... Score should have been 21-17 Seattle. As far as I am concerned Seattle won that game. They are champs.
