2 minutes from immortality

[Ring Leader]

The stage was set. Down by 6 with 2 minutes left in the Super bowl. Big Ben had destiny in his hands. At stake was a shot at immortality. Had Big Ben guided the Steelers down the field for a come from behind win, the media hyperbole would have been off the charts. Had he not failed, these were the spoils:

1. Steelers get a seemingly insurmountable 7th Super bowl victory.
2. Steelers become the latest NFL dynasty winning 3 rings in 6 years.
3. Big Ben receives "relative" media absolution from sexual deviant label.
4. Big Ben joins the mount rushmore (3 or more rings) of NFL quarterbacks - Aikman, Montana, Brady, and Bradshaw.
5. Big Ben greatly diminishes the significance of his horrible first SB qb ranking
6. Steelers get bragging rights as first SB victor in a Dallas' house.
7. "And they're buying a stairway to......." DOH!

The 2 minutes that COULD have BEN. Here's hoping that Tom Landry, in the real nosebleed seats, had something to do with the outcome.

Dallas got back some karma for Fred Swearingen.

Nice..

Ben's performance was a big beer fart from his bar hopping during the week. After I heard he was getting tanked during the week, I had a good feeling the Packers would win. Ben's a good talent but totally immature.

As I said in a previous thread, Benny Barnes is smiling somewhere. The only way it could have been any better is if the Steelers had lost because of a bad call from the refs.

i found myself doing fist pumps as if the cowboys had just won

the only other time i rooted for the packers was when they played the eagirls earlier in the year

if there was one team i would have wanted the stealers to beat, it would have been the eagirls

For the past two weeks, this is exactly what I feared, .. yes, and even expected.

And just for a moment while reading your post I got the same sick gut feeling that I have had for 2 weeks.

But then I remembered, the Packers stopped them!!

Which reminds me, their defense stopped the Eagles from scoring late to preserve a win, same thing against the Bears, and now the Steelers.

If our defense could do that, we could win a bunch more than we do.

Get ir done RR!
