    Saw a story about Matt Leinart on USAToday website, he's of course sitting behind Warner. I was thinking what was the chance that you would have him, Brady Quinn and Vince Young as insignificant in the NFL? You'd would have figure 2 out of 3 would be rising stars for sure. May still happen, but it goes to show you what a crap shoot taking a QB in the 1st round is. I'm still waiting for can't miss Joey Harrington and David Carr to make it.

    Quinn is the best bet out of those three. By the way, Cardinals are winning tomorrow.

    I think that the only reason that the signed Leinart was to push Warner. (that's what he's best at. :D )

    Actually I'm pulling for the commercials to be better than they have the last few years.

    I don't think you'll get your wish. I've seen a couple of them online and the CareerBuilder.Com one is esp annoying. The new PepsiMax is decent and the SOBE is just plain weird.

    Great catch by Ben Patrick, tremendous concentration by Warner to almost stumble but still throw the perfect pass.

    I guess the Cardinals aren't going to roll over and give up! :wink:

    I watched Gator Bowl highlights at halftime rather than that washed up rocker they hired! :wink:

    Then you missed the best halftime show in SB history. That's how we do it at the Jersey shore.

    Arizona is killing themselves with penalties on this drive with the Steelers already up 17 - 7.

    Oh what could have been for Arizona.

    Wow what a game. I thought for sure when the Cards went up 23-20 they would win the game. Then when the Steelers were inside the 10 1st and goal I thought the way the Card defense has played in the redzone we are going to have the 1st Super Bowl OT in history.

    Just a great play by Ben and Holmes. Unbelieveable.

    Certainly one of the best games I've seen in a long time.

    Some game, I think the difference was Big Ben who just wouldn't go down when you thought he was going to be sacked.

    Congratulations to the Steeler fans.

    I agree Bill, and when I was watching how Ben is so strong and pretty nimble for a big guy I couldn't help but think of Tebow. I know a lot of people doubt Tebow, and if you remember I've said consistently that I hope the Texans are in a position to draft him and do it. I think Tebow has that same physical ability that Ben shows.

    On another note, I didn't get Mr. Rooney thanking President Obama for his support....although I have read that one of the Rooney's is going to be named Ambassador to Ireland.

    Very exciting game. I was somewhat disappointed that they didn't review that last "turnover" by the Cards because I thought it was a pass. As it was I think that 3 calls against the Cards were overturned and one couldn't help get the feeling that just like SB XL the Steelers were getting almost every call. I'm sure that the folks in Seattle were reliving that theft of a few years ago;.
