what say you? got to imagine the ref screwjob of seattle v pitt comes to mind....

The Jerome Bettis homecoming SB victory party was even more obvious off the field than it was on. Made me hate Pitt forever until very recently. Took a lot of faith I had in the NFL out of me that day.

You think that's bad? Wait until Lady Gaga comes on stage by bursting through a giant replica of Ellen Degeneres' vagina wearing a dress made of pig placenta and anal beads.

What an original, amazing artist she is though guys. One of a kind

Its too bad. Before MTV got their claws in her, she looked good, had some good music looked to have a bright future. Then they turned her into the next Miley Cyrus freak.

Hmmm probably have to mention the 07 Pats/Giants game. That whole Eli Manning debacle to Tyree was f'ing ridiculous. Personally I'm glad it happened because Tom and Bill have enough rings IMO, but still is what it is.

Pittsburgh vs. Seattle wasn't a robbery. Seattle choked that game away. If it wasn't for a Kelly Herndon (who barely anyone remembers) 70+ yard interception return the Steelers basically shut out Seattle. There was some questionable calls but Seattle could've overcome them. Jeramy Stevens talked a HUGE game and then dropped a bunch of passes and Seattle bit on the Randle El pass which everyone saw coming.

The only HORRIBLE call in that game was the 'illegal tackle' by Matt Hasselbeck after he threw the INT, but that hardly dictated the game. I think if Seattle and Pitts played each other like 10 times Seattle would win 8 or so of those, but that's not how the NFL works.

I'd say SB5.
Duane Thomas fumble at the goal line. All the Colts defenders jumped up saying our ball, refs signaled Baltimore football... and the Dallas center, Dave Manders had the football.

3 Pats Super Bowls heavily defined by one play. Butler, Tyree and this one. Welker catches this ball, and Brady takes knees.

Should've only needed a FG there. Bruce pushed off...he even admitted it.

But the spot the play before was awful. He got closer to the 8 than the 10 which they spotted him...seemed pretty important of a mistake.

But still, just a lousy, pathetic effort by Dyson on that play. He's alex gordon 14 years before Alex Gordon. Lolligagging on the most important play of his career.

Refs were bad in SB XL but I don't consider it the screw job some do. Too many missed opportunities by Seattle in that one to put all the blame on the refs. Don't think I can recall an actual case where one team got completely fucked on a game changing officiating error in a Super Bowl.

I will say that the power going out in SB 47 really helped SF. Baltimore would have run away with that one if not for the 30 minutes break that stopped their momentum. Didn't change the result though.

I'll never forget the illegal block they called on Hasselbeck for making a tackle after throwing that 4th quarter INT.... An illegal block on a tackle ? That had to be the most baffling call ever.....

The missed PI on 4th down is a bigger robbery than anything else in that game.

Lady Gaga is going to be a pretty good halftime show in my opinion. Can't be worse than last years Beyoncé and Juno Mars. Let's be real. Coldplay was standing awkwardly next to them because it was a horrible mixture of performers.

With the insane grip gloves the receivers wear these days, how is it possible not to catch that one?

I had forgot about that play until you posted that.
