Pittsburgh, PA. The Super Bowl XLIII Champion Pittsburgh Steelers, the only team to win six titles, will soon be losing half of those trophies. After a meeting between NFL Commissioner Rodger Gadel and President Barack Obama, Obama decided to redistribute half of their Steelers Super Bowl victories and trophies to less fortunate teams in the league.
“We live everyday in the country that invented the Super Bowl.” said Obama “We are not about to lose this Great American tradition in the wake of these difficult times.”
Obama’s plan calls for the Steelers, who are a successful NFL team, to give half of their Super Bowl trophies to teams that are not successful or have not been as successful as the Steelers.

Don’t take spell check for granite. LOL
time until someone remarks about the refs deserving at least two of them in 3....2.....1....
Everyone knows that if time hadn’t run out the Cardinals would have won. It’s not fair. The Steelers should have had to play until the Cardinals won.
Heck with that, we should pull a Gore/frankenstein and declare victory anyway.
Should have gone back and taken away some Steeler points.
If that wasn’t enough, we could use some ACORN/thug tactics on the players/officials.
Sew true!
“In related news, The Detroit Lions have applied to
President Obama and Secretary Tim Geithner for a
‘Super Bowl Trophy Stimulus Bailout’,saying they
deserve it more than any other NFL Team.”
