Since when do I care about football?

HERE WE GO STEELERS, HERE WE GO
PITTSBURGH'S GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL


Poor Hines Ward. I hope he's okay in two weeks.
Also <3 Polamalu and Santonio. Apparently being "a Steelers player Deanna can actually name" is connected with being "a Steelers player who actually does cool things during the game"

On the other hand, the Eagles suck after all. Grr.

[personal profile] oren and [profile] genericman came over to watch the game, Zach and I also watched, and Carl sat in the kitchen playing Warcraft during the entire thing.

On the other hand, this means I'm almost certainly rooting for the same team all my eastern PA relatives are this year, and that counts for something.

The Eagles had a hard time playing consistently. In fact, had it not been for a winning streak towards the end of the season, they probably wouldn't have made the playoffs. The Philly blogger Five Tool Tool has been calling for Andy Reid's head regardless of the winning streak because the Eagles' "Just good enough" approach to ballgames.

I find calling for Andy to be fired a bad idea simply because there aren't really any better head coaches out there.

I could see getting rid of McNabb for his complete inconsistency.

I hate you for putting that song in my head. It was one of the things that made me not want to go down to the strip every weekend (the need to wake up early was the other part).
