tuned in for Q3, what a finish. Warner was superb but the better team in the end did win. Fitzgeralad is the best big game receiver since Jerry Rice.

Much enjoyable this 'football' game of which you speak. Yet little contact of ball with foot. More passing by hands of the ball. Confusing.

Caught the highlights on the PC. Everytime I came back, there was a different score. I'll have to look it up on You-Tube to watch the action.

From the photo of the day, am surprised by two things: there are other Pittsburgh Steelers fans in J-Land, and that they could take the time off to booze it up on a Monday for the game.

Guess I'll have to throw my own party tonight.

Here we go, Steelers! Here we go!

Steelers deserved the win. Both teams played well I thought. It was fun to watch the speed after Fitzgerald caught the pass.

Fun to watch and again feel excitement of NFL at a high level. Steelers did'nt give up. It was a wow factor to see the speed of Fitzgerald after he caught the ball for td.

Whenever you get to watch yourself on the jumbotron (+1/2 sex delay) burning the steel-curtain -life is good.

Was supporting the Steelers but a few key decisions went their way. The final drive by the Cardinals should not have been deemed a recovery by Pittsburgh because it was just an incomplete pass and Arizona would have had one more chance. Warner's arm and movement were clearly moving forward when the ball was knocked out therefore that is just an incomplete pass instead of the recovery given to the Steelers. Why did nobody review it ?

Northlondon, I thought it was an incomplete pass as well. However, I think the better team did win in the end and that the Cardinals gave them a real run for their money. I think this will be a Superbowl remembered for a very long time.

More USA football teams/USA football stars should tour and promote the game more outside USA.

The game can be played by more nations if NFL does these promotions with more work and patience. More sponsors will advertise on NFL games, and NFL will get richer if they work more on this.

This was one of the best super bowl games I have seen in a while. I am glad the steelers won, but I wouldn't have been upset if the Cardinals won it. They fought pretty hard and managed to silence a lot of those naysayers. I have always been pretty partial to Kurt Warner since his days as a Ram. The speed on Fitzgerald is insane. I told someone if he managed to get loose, he would be unstoppable. Anyway, congrats to the Steelers and Mike Tomlin for being the youngest coach to ever win a Super Bowl.

Great Game ! Some iffy calls down the stretch though that cost Arizona a shot at a truly historic conclusion. With about 20 seconds left Kurt Warner fumbled the ball with video showing his arm going forward as to pass. Should have been reviewed by the refs and probably returned to Arizona with another shot... but ??? Too bad that such a great game had to end on that note... watch for this controversey to heat up over the next few weeks.
