That was the moment I knew the refs were favoring a team.

They make the head ref whose stats show he has the lowest amount of overturned calls in instant replay as the lead for the superbowl, when instant replay was overturning bad calls by refs all season long and overturning the right calls?
Talk about setting up a cluterf#$% of a superbowl.

The call that Rothliesburger scored when he clearly was tackled with the ball behind the endzone and shoved it across the goal line after tackle was a discrace to the concept they have instant replay.

The refs saying darrel jackson pushed off to cancel out a TD was equally bad. Even Madden, who was licking the Steelers butt all night long, came out and said it was a bad call after the halftime replays.

This is to you and everyone else crying about the bad calls by the officials that cost the Seahawks the game.

I've been watching the post game comments about the Steelers victory and the Seahawks loss on ESPN and FOX Sports Network.

The subject of bad calls never came up once, anywhere. Nobody except the whining Seahawks fans are saying anything about bad calls. Nobody. Anywhere.

Everyone else figures that the Steelers won the game fair and square. Everyone. Except the whiners on this thread.

Get over it. Your team lost. Fair and square. Quit being in denial. That's a river in Africa. You all look like poor sports and sore losers. Which is exactly what you are.

Another thing that I am not sure of is was Jackson pushed out of bounds on that ball he caught on the 1 yardline. Should that have been a catch?

Didn't get to look at that and none of the announcers seemed to look at the question.
