The only reason the nFL apologized for the reversal of the Palamalu interception in the Indy game was because Pittsburg still won.

Don't expect similar admissions about the bad calls in this game.

And this is what pisses me off about Pitt fans such as Petronski... THEY SHOULD KNOW that this shyt is going on.

If they had WRONGLY lost that game in Indy they'd be bytching louder then the Starbucks crowd.

The NFL's official statement today was that there were no problems with the officiating. [sarcasm]

The fact the whole country, except some Steelers fans, are talking about the bad calls is proof this isn't just disgruntled Hawks fans. Had the refs not been a factor, not saying decisive, but a definite factor in the game the subject would be bettis getting his ring.

Steelers fans in this thread are just upset their victory isn't the sweet one they wanted. Pure and simple. Too damn bad. I'd feel more sympathetic, because the refs did screw it up for both teams, if Steelers fans would just admit what the rest of the country saw. Very bad calls mostly against the Hawks. Even Ben admitted it on Letterman. That his fans can't is telling.
