Not who I would have picked at the beginning of the season, but here we are.

Who you routing for and what are your scores?


I don't like either team, but at this point I think the Cards are the underdog and I will therefore pull for them...

However, I think the Steelers will win it.

Steelers 27
Cardinals 21

    Everyone (and no one can claim otherwise) has been doubting the Cards the whole playoffs (for good reason). I see no need to doubt them now. I think the Cards pull it off.

    20-17

    Fitzgerald (SB MVP): 2 TDs, 120+ recieving yards. He's a one-man wrecking machine!

    The little I saw of both games, I have to go with my boys THE Pittsburg Steelers. 8-)

    Having said that , the way Warner was able to dump those short passes negating the blitz , I don't know . Glad we have the D we do.It ought to be a good game.

    I've been a doubter of the Cards during the playoffs, but I think the Steelers are just waaay too good all around and the Cards are going to have a hell of a game ahead of them.

    Steelers Win 38-17- Polamalu, again showing the whole world not to anoint Ed Reed the best safety, has another big game. Why anyone would throw over the middle against them is crazy. Kurt Warner might not live through the game.

    I wouldn't want to go through the middle knowing I might either get my head taken off or get close to paralysis by an opposing defenders helmet bashing into mine while not looking.

    Ummmm, that was a clean hit, he lead with his shoulder. That was one of the hardest hitting games I have ever seen.

    IT WAS NOT , I REPEAT , NOT INTENTIONAL. The game was hard hitting all night long. Christ even the punter had a good hard tackle. One of those unfortunate circumstances from playing smashmouth football.

    It's strange then, that Clark's helmet made contact before his shoulder did. It was definitely not a clean hit. I hope he gets fined.

    Anyway, Cards 24 Steelers 17

    And the east coast sports media can suck on their all PA Superbowl. That would have been just as boring to the rest of the country as an all NY World Series a couple of years ago. Philly got the penant. Good for them. They needed a dose of "shut the fuck up" today and they got it.

    Its funny then that even the announcers said it was a clean hit, it did not look like he was trying to lead with his head, McGahee turned into him as well, so you could put blame on him. I won't even get into the two roughing the passer calls that were not thrown when Ben was hit twice after he had throw, one that hurt his back. And the Cheap tackle on Hines Ward.

    I was surprised that the Steelers were favored by that much today also. Although I won $400 bucks because of the INT return for TD.

    Steelers 31 Cardinals 21 - Steelers will be first franchise with 6 Super Bowl Titles and it would have been 7 if it wasn't for Neil O'Donnell.

    I'm upset that there's no PA Super Bowl. It's the third time in the last 8 years it could have happened. I'm just glad it wasn't the Steelers who lost this time in the conference title game.
