That's what I'm thinking too.

By the way, I just heard (I guess it's true) on the news that ABC, in a desire to avoid a raunchy halftime scene, is putting a 5 SECOND DELAY on the ENTIRE game on Sunday. What will that do to guys like me who listen to Tunch and Hillgrove? Do you think the radio will also have a 5 second delay? If not, I might have to listen to the TV guys.

Why didn't they just have the delay for the halftime? This is way-over reacting, imo!

Only about 32 more hours to kickoff.

A five second delay on a live broadcast is not unusual and I understand it was more or less the norm 20 or so years ago. What I don't understand is why they stopped using it. It will screw up things if you are trying to watch the game on TV but listed to announcers on the radio.

The thing that concerns me the most about the Seahawks is that they have a very good offensive line, especially the left side. They have the NFL's No. 1 rusher. If they get the running game going it will open up the passing game for them. If they get their passing game going, it will open up their running game.

Steelers "D" has to shut them down completely and play like they did in the three playoff games. The same pressure is on the Seahawks "D".

I'm looking for a fine game. Steelers were about perfect in the last playoff game. Hardly any penalties, I don't remember anyone dropping a pass, even the interception by the linebacker was excellent. They will have to play perfect football again, but they have proven that they can.
