- All this was written as I watched the game (that at least makes a little sense out of this.)
- Faith Hill is still hot.
- Having the crew of the Miracle On The Hudson coming out onto the field before the game was a nice touch. Video.
- There was a Doritos ad with the punch line of a guy being hit in the crotch with a crystal ball. Idiocracy moves closer. Edit: The reviews on Monday morning rate it as the top commercial.
- John Madden = Beating.
- There were a lot of movies advertised. And, if I may sound nerdy, the Star Trek one looks pretty good.
- No team has a right to be more frustrated than the New England Patriots. They go 11-5 for the season and beat the Arizona Cardinals 47-7 yet they didn't make the playoffs. Do we need the BCS in the NFL?
- You can't help but like Kurt Warner. And is wife has definitely upgraded her looks.
- I still like those "G" commercials.
- Craziest name from the game: Dominique Reshard Rodgers-Cromartie. And how does a guy end up with a hyphenated name?
- Weirdest moment. With 2:46 left in the second quarter, were the defensive backs of the Steelers huddled in prayer on the sideline? Huh? "Dear lord, let us cover those speedy receivers better."
- The Teleflora "talking flowers" commercial was funny. Although the line of "no one wants to see you naked" was a little shocking.
- The 100 yard interception return by Pittsburgh was crazy. Who would have ever thought that crazy concept of dropping a krillion pound defensive lineman into pass coverage would work. (And I couldn't tell if he made it in or not.) Video.
- As I write this at halftime, I predict that Harrison (the guy that returned the interception) becomes the rare defensive Super Bowl MVP.
- The best part of the Bruce Springsteen halftime show was when he tossed his guitar to a roadie at the beginning of the performance and it was almost dropped. I've never understood why he's considered so great.
- Commercial: Jack of Jack In The Box got hit by a bus? My fake kids would be crying right now.
- Commercial: The Ed McMahon gold commercial was funny but he looked like he was 10 minutes from death.
- If John Madden says "No one does it better than [insert any player's name who just made a good play]" I might off myself.
- Commercial: PepSuber was kinda funny.
- You had to be watching closely, but Al Michaels yelling "Huge!" (when Pittsburgh's Harrison was flagged for street mugging an Arizona player near the end of the game) wasn't huge at all. And then he tried to cover himself by saying, "Huge in a sense as to when the flag was thrown."
- Arizona WR Larry Fitzgerald is money.
- It's cool how Larry Fitzgerald looked up on the big screen to see how close his chasers were on his touchdown catch in the 4th. (Obscure reference: The first time I ever saw a player do that was a UT tight end on a huge catch in the first Big 12 Championship game against Nebraska.)
- Commercial: Man, those GoDaddy.com commercials are shocking.
- What a game!! (As I just saw Holmes take a pass down to the 6.)
- What a game #2!! (As I just saw Holmes pull in a tip toe touchdown pass.)
- With seconds left in the game, I'd still make Harrison the MVP. That was a 14 point swing.
- I really dislike NFL Commissioner Roger Goodall. And he makes a shocking $11 million a year.
