Terrible decisions. Did you see the block in the back that helped Harrison get the 100 yard TD INT ? That was four terrible decisions by the officiating crew.

cards were robed . too come back too lead from 13 points behind.a super bowl record . they deserved too win BEN Graham's Super Bowl dream has ended in misery after his Arizona Cardinals had victory snatched away in the dying seconds.
Pittsburgh won the National Football League title 27-23.
The final quarter was a thriller, with Arizona appearing as though it would pull off the biggest comeback win in Super Bowl history by scoring two touchdowns in the final quarter to erase a 13 point deficit.

winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11
The Cards certainly got the rough end of the stick. Really enjoyed that game though. Fitzgerald was awesome. I just thought as soon as he went in for his 2nd it's too soon. Was nervous for them after that, and what Big Ben came up trumps. I hate that fat knacker for some reason!
The Cards punter was abysmal. Think you may be seeing him in oz next year!

We had a fair few at the Sports Cafe in Leeds waving their Terrible Towels around and singing Let's go Steelers. I wish I'd have nabbed a towel and wiped my nose on it then stamped on it like a couple of Titans players did in December.

Roughing the holder is a no brainer call there, he wasnt blocked into him and just ran straight in despite having ample opportunity to change his angle and avoid the holder.
Dumb play by Adrian Wilson IIRC, and not his only one of the night either.

He was blocked and he was falling forward and couldn't get out of the way of the holder. Harrison committed a worse dumb play by punching the Cardinals player and nothing happened. The officiating was dodgy at best against the Cardinals.
