East coast bias, y'all :)
28/21 Seahawks.

PONTIAC, Mich. - Pittsburgh Steelers Pro Bowl safety Troy Polamalu said he “tweaked” an ankle during practice Thursday and was added to the team’s Super Bowl injury report as probable.

"tweaked" is not going to keep Polamalu from making the sacks or the interceptions. That man is my favorite football player period. And it's not just the hair or the jersey.

Besides... I've never seen a bird yet that could take down a bus :P

Another vote for the Steelers by 10.

And who's going to be the first to use Troy Polamalu as the inspiration for a S&S hero? [;)]

Sorry guys, there's much bigger news than some old football game...pitchers and catchers report to camp in just a few days.

But if I had to put a dollar on it, Seahawks by 1.

Steelers will be down by a field goal in the 4th quarter and will put together a drive that will be capped by a three yard rush by the BUS to win. Add the extra point--Steelers by 4 pts.

15 years of football coaching experience here--I know these things.

Polamalu with have a tough game today, won't be as big a factor as he was in the playoff games. Seattle will hold out the Steeler blitz. But, the Seahawks don't have the manpower to stop the Steeler running game. The Steelers surprised their playoff opponents with an unexpected passing attack, but today they will be grinding it out on the ground. It's gonna be a good game.

Look for the Steelers to pass short on first down and run on second and third. Cower will run the ball on 4th down every time he's inside the Seahawk 50 and outside field goal range today, and he'll get the first down too.

The take away ratio will also be a deciding factor. I say the Seahawks will give the ball up in critical situations at least twice today.

Now, how's that for sticking my neck out.

That's nothing, watch me stick my head out...

The Stones sounded horrible.

I just hope I can move at all when I'm as old as Mick. My wife kept turning the Stones off and I kept making her turn it back on again. It's history, sort of like having an appreciation for old battlefields. It's not so much what they are so much as what they were.

(You're right, though. They were pretty bad. Like Bettis, their bus should stop in Detroit.)

Yeah but unlike Bettis - they won't stop until the embalmer makes them.... (and everyone on stage but Mick looked bored anyway)

Boy did they ever. Personally, I turned the TV on mute and played some songs (not the Stones) off my computer during halftime.

Hey, the only thing holding them up is all the chemicals in their systems. Do enough drugs act as a preservative? You know, like pickling--wrinkled on the outside but stays fresh in a jar.

Besides there is something wrong with a world that thinks of the Stones as being a safe family act for the Super Bowl. But I guess in today's world old Mick is pretty tame--unless you count seeing his belly button as a wardrobe malfunction.
