A Game for the Ages

After reading every one's latest blog, cookies, pictures, Idiot(s) etc. I thought maybe a comment of the 'Game for the Ages' might warrant some blog time. I thoroughly enjoyed the game yesterday except the wrong team won but still the Steelers and Cardinals played an exciting game. The play up the middle was a classic that put AZ ahead with 2+ minutes left on the clock. I thought the game was over but another angel sitting next to me (he is pretty smart) said ; "I don't think so." Boy was he right. Ben is a tough man to bring down; he must have scrambled out of trouble at least 10 times during the game. AZ just could not get him on the ground; even on the game winning play he was scrambling and then he threw a perfect pass that was caught in the corner of the end-zone, just out of reach of the defenders. These kind of plays late in the game is what makes legends. Kurt did a magnificent job rallying his team and then Ben did what he needed to do to win. Two great quarterbacks leading their teams and neither one needs to hang their head. I love both performances. I loved the game. It was great and for the most part was competed cleanly and fairly. Next time AZ, when they get back to the Super Bowl, they will win. You heard it here first!

I am usually way into the super bowl. I just wasn't this year. I was so tired from our trip that I just didn't care. I was hoping for the Cardinals. That would have been cool.

I love reading about the game. With don at work I didn't watch it. Kendra and I did other things.

This year just was not exciting for me, I mostly played on the computer with fish tycoon and ate a few wings. I was however amazed at the last touchdown, wow what a lucky catch.
