Super 43 - The Final Act
And here we go. Cards at the 20.
NFL's advertisement:Usama Young of the Saints. "It's just a commercial, son." Nice.
By the way: the 3-D commercials weren't that good on OTA television.
Back to the Cards:
By the way: www.dennys.com crashed after their free breakfast offer.
- About five yard gain for Breaston.
- James willing himself for three, four.
- Okay, Al, we KNOW about the groceries. Cleanup on aisle three.
- Boldin gets the first down. I feel for him; he's wearing gloves.

Back to the Cards:
- Boldin catches it for a first - but more laundry. Holding, of course, on the Cardinals. (SIGH).
- 91 yards of penalties for the Cards. 94 is the record - hm, in Super Bowl 12?
- Right through the hands of Hightower. Punt time. This game's going down the tubes fast.
- Nearly blocked... and a poor punt.
- Roethlisberger for MVP, anyone?
- And guess what... first play is a defensive holding call. And 99 yards on penalties for the Cards.
- Student Body left. Tomlin is having a ball on the sidelines.
- Stuffed by Dockett. Steelers are 3rd and long for first time in a long time.
- AND A SACK! (Sure there's no "roughing the passer" call there?) Cards might get it back in good position.

- Warner passes to Breaston for the first.
- Urban gets another first, hurry up offense...
- Fitzgerald gets the catch, but only for a few yards. Another no-huddle.
- Nice little release pass to Arrington. Steelers obviously playing prevent
- Fitzgerald gets it in the 10 - ANOTHER penalty. Defensive holding. 1st and goal.
- Fitzgerald again. More catches on this drive than all game.
- Cards call TO. That Taco Bell commercial is El dumbo.
- Dear GE: L. Frank Baum is probably rolling in his grave.
- Hightower to the one.
- And of course Fitzgerald got the jump-ball catch for the TOUCHDOWN.
- Rackers tacks on the extra point - and the Cards are still in this one.
