I thought you need two feet in the NFL? One foot is College Football.

Why would Obama always like the Steelers?

Did you see his interview on the subject a few days ago? It makes no sense. Only a transplant (like he is) would say something so conflicting and ridiculous. (Hillary did the same when she ran for the Senate in N.Y. regarding the Yankees)

It was so obvious on the replay he had both feet down that I don't know why anyone would even argue about it, except that you like to argue with everyone about everything. I'm not getting roped in this time. This is my last comment to you on the subject.

How can you tell from those angles that the one foot touched the grass? You can't. It could have been an inch off the grass and the replay could not tell otherwise. All I am saying is it is possible both feet were not in.

I like to argue? You are telling me you do not?

I will not pursue this further either.

Both feet were clearly in.

Anyways, Obama personally said that he likes the Steelers but the Bears are still his fave.

Again. Why would he always like the Steelers? He did not spend anytime of his life growing up anywhere in that area. I think he said he always liked the Steeler's because Mr. Rooney contributed big bucks to his campaign. Also, how can he root for the Cards? Their home is in McCain's state.

It was not hard to figure out,but his comment was still ridiculous.

I really do not like either team a whole lot. I sure wanted would have wanted the Cards win though. The Steelers won a few years ago.

Funny how Rooney thanked Obama. How in the world did Obama "always like" the Steelers?

He is worse than Hillary with that garbage.
There were several disappointing calls tonight. I used to respect the Steelers, but after witnessing the one-sided officiating coupled with the classless behavior of the Steelers' players, I found myself rooting for the underdog. Thrilling game...shame it ended the way it did.

I started the game rooting for the Steelers, but switched to the Cardinals somewhere in the second or third quarter... I just found myself pulling for them. But honestly, it's hard to care about either team. I'm happy my co-workers from Pittsburgh have something to be excited about, I suppose.

It was a huge deal for Rooney since Obama said he was a Steelers fan this past week - because the Rooneys were huge donors and supported him. Unless a team is from the president's hometown or state, they normally remain neutral and don't express a preference as to who wins a sporting event. Not the case this time.

Default i don't believe you did

WHAT?? I was being descriptive to prove my point and also justify my expertise, what I don't like is generic comments like, if you don't like watching big hits, watch ice skating. Well ice skating actually has some pretty mind numbing hits! And football has hits too. If you think big hits are the whole game you should also watch WWE. I KNOW the Cardinals didn't win. However,end of the game, Fitzpaterick made the Steelers suffer and look like a bunch of slow mutants. Smart, fast, witty play maker scores points. The only equation that reliably and repeatably wins games.

Also, the Refs hopefully got a big bonus out of ROFLsburgers take.
